Super Quick Post! (aka: Go Check Out My Guest Post)

Happy 2017 everyone!

Just wanted to share with you the guest post I did for the Oakland Arts Review. You can find it HERE. I talk about ways on how to tackle your jealousy toward another writer’s work.

The Oakland Arts Review is an international undergraduate literary journal from Oakland University. (So, yes, now you know where I earned my second degree.) I had a great time working with my class last semester, trying to get the second edition of the journal off the ground. I can’t wait to see the final product this spring.

If you’re an aspiring writer and also an undergrad, we would love to receive a submission from you! (It’s free, after all!) Unfortunately, I won’t read anymore entries due to the fact that I’m a graduate, but it’s a great experience as a writer to get your work out there. The act of sending your stories/poems/essays teaches you how to write cover letters, along with dealing with rejection (which is inevitable in the writing world). Plus, if your work is accepted, it’s a nice thing to include on your resume.

So hop over to read my guest post on the OAR blog. And if you have the time, read some of my classmates’ blog posts as well. They’re a talented group of people, discussing a variety of topics involving writing and books. I hope you learn something new.



P.S. Happy Martin Luther King, Jr Day! For those of you who had school or work cancelled today, I hope you enjoyed your day off and made the world a little brighter.
