Diary of a Writer
People are fascinated with the idea of writing. So many people say, 'I want to write a novel,' but so few actually know what's entailed. The Diary of a Writer is an inside look at the life of a full-time writer, who's been writing for over a decade and actively publishing stories over that time. Messy, chaotic, vulnerable and exhausting, the Diary of a Writer, should not be read by the feint hearted.
Ink will be spilt; fingers shall crack; pages will go missing.

In a world that isn't motivated into doing anything without a dollar value, it can be hard to remember to do things just for the fun of it.
For over a year now, I've been struggling with finding joy with my craft. But thanks to numerous nudges from Life, especially one from a quote by Brett Goldstein, I am beginning to turn the tides and make time for more joyful creative projects.
Because at the end of the day, it doesn't matter if you're not good at something if you're having fun with it. Some things are just meant to be for fun. Which reminds me ...
🩷🌸 New Fun Project Alert! 🌸🩷
After years of sitting on a romance series, I have decided to write and publish it as a serial online romance novel. It's a fun little side hustle, centring around a female character in her late-twenties, Sally Baker.
Sally, like a lot of people in their twenties is having lots of adventures with romantic partners all in hope of finding 'the one.' But as anyone who has been on similar adventures knows, that's not always easy.
This series follows Sally on those romantic adventures, whereby she discovers not only what she's not willing to put up with, but also who she is and what she really wants.
If you're looking for an easy to read romance with a small dose of the social issues women face in the modern dating world, check it out at sallybakerinlove.substack.com/

Scarlett Marie is a true born creative, who has spent her whole life dabbling in the arts and craft, only to find her feet in the world of words whereby she has spent over fifteen years making stories come alive.
Her time and energy has been mainly spent on the series A Royal Life, of which she started drafting when she was fifteen.
Here on the 'Diary of a Writer' she hopes to show people a peek behind the door of what it means to live as a full-time creative.
