    When I first started writing, I had trouble finding titles, making a plan, being urban enough, and getting gritty. But now that I'm advanced in my writing, I feel like I have useful tips that could make fresh writers' journey easier. Any questions or requests for chapters, inbox me. This resource is for your growth.
