    I had a blast speaking with Author Ash D. Collins (Awyn Dawn) on this episode of The Write Mindset. What began as a conversation about her 111 Magic book naturally morphed into a conversation on the craft of writing. She really brought a lot of great energy, as there was laughter, knowledge, and magic! ~ May our efforts help the community work, grow, and rise together, and keep developing "The Write Mindset."
