Happy holidays, my dear writer bees!
To wrap up the year, I’m looking back at my favorite posts of 2019. Before I do, I just want to say thank you to all the readers that follow my humble little blog. Your support keeps me going.
To the Teacher Who Changed my Life
This was a thank you letter that was a long time coming. I had this wonderful teacher who really encouraged me to pursue writing. Now, I’m so grateful for her kindness. Not sure where I’d be without it.
Fictional Works
You know, not to toot my mediocre horn, but I really liked the short stories I wrote this year. Flash fiction pieces like Proud Colors and Cinnamon Witch are true standouts. I challenged myself by experimenting with new styles and subjects. And because of that, I’ve become a better writer.
Then there’s Color Me Surprised , another short story I’m quite fond of. This piece was a one off and featured characters from my WIP. Actually, combining mystery and comedy was fun to write.
May of Mystery
For an entire month of May, all my posts were mystery themed. Each post was a spotlight on the genre. Everything from dropping clues to creating an inspector character. A particular favorite was when I analyzed Knox’s rules for writing detective fiction. I’m looking forward to May 2020.
What else happened this year? Well I….
- Celebrated 200 followers.
- Participated in NaNoWriMo.
- Started the Notes of a Lady Freelance Writer series.
- Posted a services page.
- Finally joined Twitter.
- Published fun Writing Prompts every Monday.
And that was my year in review for Lady Jabberwocky. What were some of your favorite moments in 2019? And what are you hoping for for the upcoming new year? Talk to me in the comments, writer bugs.
Write with Heart,
Lady Jabberwocky

My current WIP novel is a detective story. Let me tell you, it is both fun and challenging. Lots of moving parts, but I enjoy writing a good mystery. 🙂

That’s awesome! I can certainly see it being challenging, though. I can’t even imagine trying to write a mystery myself; too much for me to remember lol But, props to you for writing one! I’m wishing you the best with it! 🌟
