ABOUT

After she spent most of her writing “career” ghostwriting for companies and realized there were no passionate verbs in company instruction manuals, Y. M. decided to produce and share her own work with the public.

She created the Owen & Makayla romance story series and is working on The Accidental Swipe, a romantic comedy novel based on her #MyTinderSeries blog serial, and Living Between Dreams, a debut women’s fiction novel and book one of the Living Between Dreams series. To support her writing habit, she’s an English professor and has a day job.

Currently, most of Y. M. Nelson’s books and stories are published under the One Creative Summer Press imprint. For more information on what’s to come or to receive an ARC, visit the Contact page.

“Writing Through Career Transition” started as a catharsis/rant/resource about Y. M.’s situation at the time: dealing with a (non-writing) job layoff while trying to find that unicorn known as a successful creative writing career. It has since blossomed into a resource for all things writing related–my journey, resources for other writers, and writing Q&A–while still being somewhat of a rant on career and update on unicorn sightings.
