@Ms_NScott Thank you for following my #WritingBlackness journey for the month of February!

@AnimaWrites I was reading about your writing journey. I am so proud of your dedication - telling us how writing your manuscript is going, while making sure to spend time with family & friends. Happy Birthday! Good for you a mani/pedi is a good escape for self care & self love

#WritingBlackness Day 0: My writing goal for this 29-day writing challenge is to complete this manuscript. I want to submit it to the journal on February 29.

We lost a real one. My brother Jay Williams put his insides on the line every single time he showed up to work. He was special and we were all better because of him. @tdsb we need to honour his legacy.

#WritingBlackness Day 29: I went to the doctor for a follow-up. No more sore throat. I did the paper’s citations and abstract. I submitted the manuscript to the journal. This writing challenge has been great. So glad I decided to participate!

#WritingBlackness Day 28: I saw the doctor today. Im feeling so much better. I’m on the mend. I worked on my citations a little more.
