I’m Kai from the Salt Lake City, Utah area! I have always enjoyed creative writing and have only taken it up as a hobby over the last two years. I write mostly in the genre fiction space: mainly horror, weird, and speculative (which, granted, makes me sound much more heady than I think I am). I’ve been in a loop of starting stories and not finishing first drafts, due to a heap of factors, I'm afraid. I look forward to connecting with this community and learning from you all!

Should we keep track of each other? Like report on Mondays in a post? I need this level of check up. 😅

Ok, @Zachary West @Eric Anderson @Angela Griffin @Jacob Oberle (and anyone else who wants to join!), you took up the gauntlet that was thrown down a few weeks ago... and now the time has come to act on the challenge 😅 So. This is my official, public, commitment. I am almost halfway through my initial story-level edit, and I have 52 scenes left. By the end of July, I am committing to having revised all 52 of those scenes as necessary, and be at least 8 scenes into my scene-level edit. That adds up to about two scenes per day. 60 scenes in 30 days. I'll stay accountable weekly here in the community, consistent with the rules of the 30K in 30 Days challenge, and I hope y'all keep me accountable!!! Excited to be writing with you through the summer chaos!

6.7k... but I had a huge head start. Only averaging a couple hundred words a day.

Seeing my debut featured on a BookBub deal this morning is… possibly one of the greatest Wins I have ever had in my life 🙌🏼
