DarWrites: the Blog

One of my most cherished treasures on this website is the DarWrites blog. It embodies my theory of “Discover, Author, and Roam.” This unique combination perfectly captures the essence of reading, writing and playing, the goalposts I live by.

“Discover” invites you into the world of reading, “Author” signifies the art of writing, and “Roam” embodies the spirit of exploration and play.

It’s a well-rounded phrase that encapsulates the journey of creativity and engagement in the writing life.

At DarWrites, celebrate the rich tapestry of genres, inviting writers and readers to explore, create, and connect. This Literary Universe encompasses the vast human experience including areas of romance, science fiction, poetry, and nonfiction. It’s a place where stories ignite your passions, your thoughts, and transport you to worlds unimagined.

Best,

Darlene
