It's All About Writing

Mother. Writer. Author. Friend.

Hi there, I am Nicole. This blog is simply my little corner of the writing world. I used to own and operate the previous website known as Freelance Writer's Exchange, but my focus changed a lot and I decided to let that go and run with this.

I am a YA & Women's Fiction writer. Trying my hand at my first steamy romance novel. Wife. Mom to 5. Freelance contributor to family, food & lifestyle pubs. I love chocolate, books, photography, scrapbooking & Sushi. Not necessarily in that order.

I absolutely love comments, and love meeting new people, so please be sure and leave a comment so I know you've visited, and so I can come visit you.

Thanks for this! I have wanted this information for ages! Instead, I have been MAKING UP MY OWN hastags, hoping they were remotely searchable for writers! molly

Hi Nicole,

I must have missed when you did this poll. I’m glad you put this together, and I am really surprised that my #Writers_Life came up at number 5. I just started it a couple/few weeks ago.

Well, actually #LitChat and #kidlitchat are two different twitter chats, both excellent and informative.

You might want to add the newly born but very prolific #StoryCraft to your list.

There’s also #webfic, the #ScribeChat, #followreader, and #scifichat.

So many interacting opportunities!

Hi, Nicole! I missed your poll, but I’m excited to see #amwriting here. I had no idea when I started it that it would take off like it has. It’s really wonderful.

Debbie Ridpath Ohi (@inkyelbows) has a great list of chats listed on her site: http://bit.ly/16FHrb

She does a fantastic job of keeping them updated and this is my go-to source for information about moderators, times, etc.
