I’m Joseph Harris…

…a writer with big, bookish dreams. You know the ones.

A long time ago I read a novel that grabbed me and wouldn’t let go. Whether I’m consuming or creating them, books have been changing my life ever since.

I enjoy many other good things, like baking, music, video games, and hiking outdoors.

But I’m betting everything on this hope: that a little bit of heart and whole lot of perseverance will be enough to make the dream come true.

Will you join me in dreaming?

That way you’ll never miss a post. These are all things I’ve learned through lots and lots of mistakes along the novel-writing way. Maybe one of them will give you an ah-hah moment and help you avoid the problems I encountered. Or maybe they’ll just make you feel better about failing too :’)

Plus, it lets me know there are others out there who care about the same things I do.

A writer with big, bookish dreams. I love being immersed in stories, but I also love stepping back to see what makes them tick. I've decided to pursue this mystery one keystroke at a time.
