One Engaging Story Leads to Another

If you haven’t always been a reader (or you aren’t currently a big reader), Episode 39 of QWERTY Writing Life is for YOU! We’re chatting about how one engaging read leads to another and how developing a love of reading might be easier than you think.We encourage you to read a book outside your comfort zone. Recommendations are HUGE, both for readers and authors; so share away! We want to hear what you’re reading and we’d love to share some recommendations with you.
