In Which Bre and Tami Discuss Braveheart Writing Style, aka unpublished freedom!
Most of us may have “being published” as a major writing goal, but it is important to appreciate, even celebrate your unpublished status.

Saucy Content
To many, the label “unpublished” is a dirty word or label of failure on our part.  We see it as a current state in our development of writers as something we most move from as quickly as possible.  But maybe we are looking at it from the wrong prospective?  What if being unpublished can actually help you and nurture your writing abilities as you grow?  Join us as we discuss the pros and cons being unpublished and how you can make it work for you instead of impeding your progress.
