About Holly Craig
Hi. Glad you dropped by. I’m Holly. I’m a writer, English teacher and primary teacher. This is a space where I get to write about writing. I’m just like anyone else trying to get their work published. And in that case, I hope we can inspire, lift, mentor and motivate each other to reach that seemingly impossible target. Apparently creating something like this blog platform is just another avenue in. I like to think of it like an online diary that other people get to snoop into.
So here it goes and here it is. Hope you like visiting this space.
Join me on the upward journey: grazes, bruises, heartache and all. See you at the finish line.
