Gleaning Words
Come in for a visit once in a while. Sit down, have a cup of coffee or tea. Read til your heart’s content. And when you’re ready to leave, know there will always be a place here for you to come and rest your bones from the weary world outside.

📓 Journals Directory
Here, you'll find the journals I either am gleaning, have gleaned, or plan on gleaning in the future. I created this section after realizing (thankfully, soon enough) that having so many sections for all my journals would be utter chaos on my homepage navigation menu with all the additional links. You can instead conveniently find them in this single section. I will still continue to create new sections for each gleaned journal; they will just not be visible in the navigation menu.

✍️ The Writing Life
This is where I'll be hosting various resources for writers such as links, books, apps, courses, and more.

👨🏻🏫 Scrivener Masterclass
"Fixing Scrivener Compiling Headaches" is a course dedicated to learning the ins and outs of the writing app Scrivener's compiling and exporting features. This is a special perk just for the Founding Members of "Gleaning Words"!
