the writer's week ahead: 5.26.24-6.1.24

The topic of book proposals came up a lot in the LGBTQIA+ writer Q&A hour, so I hope this self-paced version can be a great resource.
Also also also. There are also still a few times available for June, if you’d like to book a My Best Writing Practice reading!
