Did you read all our Pep Talks last year? Although we’re past November, author Nic Stone’s Pep Talk is still full of excellent writing wisdom. Read the full Pep Talk here!

Image description: A illustration of a wooden posable drawing model that looks like it’s dancing, in front of a notebook page and blue pencil, with the text: “NaNoWriMo: “Your story is the dancer, and you are the dance. You lead. You set the steps. You call the shots.” —Nic Stone”

Nic Stone was born and raised in a suburb of Atlanta, GA, and the only thing she loves more than an adventure is a good story about one. After graduating from Spelman College, she worked extensively in teen mentoring and lived in Israel for a few years before returning to the US to write full-time. Growing up with a wide range of cultures, religions, and backgrounds, Stone strives to bring these diverse voices and stories to her work.

You can find her goofing off and/or fangirling over her adorable little family on most social media platforms.

And then she leans in for another kiss.
