Love vs. Romance & February Writing Prompts
Read More: Love vs. Romance & February Writing PromptsIt’s February, which means hearts and flowers all over the place, whether you’re into that sort of thing or not.

Read More: The Art of Covers & Submission Deadline Weds.How much impact does a book’s cover have when you’re browsing the shelves (physical or digital) for something to read?

Movies First & Weekly Writing Prompts
