Noticing Newbies

My name is Libby Lyon and I am so excited to be here! I recently created Write2Feel2Heal (W2F2H), a blog to provide a safe, supportive environment for anyone looking for evidence-based knowledge regarding mental health and to assist with navigating life's challenges through the written word. I recently made a career change from a mental health clinician and active clinical psychologist to a mental health freelance content writer and blogger. I am so excited about this; writing is my passion and to be able to couple it with psychology is a dream. I have learned so much about the freelance and ghostwriting business (my head is swimming!) and I have dove deep into the marketing strategies to be successful. It's a very exciting time; my website launches next week!!

In addition to that writing business, I am also working on a children's book series. I am finishing the second draft of book #2 and outlining book #3. I am looking into illustration options now and am excited to have them published within the next year or so. And if those two genres weren't different enough, I am actively outlining (I am a meticulous plotter) a psychological horror novel that I have been thinking about for years. I'm very excited about this project and its development. I am enjoying being a beta reader, which I have never done until the last few weeks and I can see the benefits to my writing already.

I am so excited to be here and connect with other like-minded writers. I love what I am doing right now but it can be an isolating world and I am so excited to read what others have written and share what I am writing.

We do, in fact, Write2Feel2Heal.
