Write Together,
Grow Together
I used to think writing was a solo mission—just me, a typewriter (okay, fine, a laptop), and an endless supply of flavored sparkling water. But guess what? Turns out, I write best when I have a goal to chase and a group to cheer me on! That’s where the 60-Day Writing Challenge comes in. You’ll still write on your own, but you won’t be alone. Think of it like an old-school writer’s club, but with a modern twist—friendly competition, progress tracking, and plenty of virtual high-fives. It’s motivation, momentum, and a whole lot of fun—all wrapped up in one challenge. So dust off your keyboard, grab your favorite drink, and let’s make some writing magic happen!

Hi! I'm Michelle, your Challenge Host.
I’ve always enjoyed creating stories, starting with small ones when I was seven. I primarily write and read YA Fantasy, but I’ve also developed a taste for non-fiction.
As a web designer and writer, I balance my work with my family's schedule. I love collaborating with authors and bookish professionals.
