The Quick Quirk

Give yourself the gift of the Quick Quirk, or in this case, a sticker of a unicorn jumping out of a pink gift-wrapped box.
Imagine this. In your inbox. For free.

You’ve dipped your toes into my dreamscape… now it’s time to dive in! Get your monthly dose of magic, the Quick Quirk, delivered straight to your inbox via Unicorn Express!

Becoming a friend of the Quick Quirk is free, and comes with a ton of perks: the most quizzical… the most questionable… the most quirky writing tips, quips, and quibbles the Wordsmithy wordsmiths each month — plus super-secret bonus stuff you won’t see on the blog!

(You’ll also get author updates on the one and only Michaelina Deneka, if you’re into that. But it’s totally cool if you’re just in it for the writing advice. I heard that author lady’s kind of… quirky.)

Sound like the creative writing newsletter of your dreams? Sign Up for the Quick Quirk Today!

BTW: the unicorns definitely have not been dabbling in dream research, and they are 100% not able to implant subliminal advertisements via your dreams. I mean. If that’s what you were thinking.

I just don’t want you to mistake my little weirdnesses for some sign of unicorn brainwashing. Sure. The unicorns have been staying up all night for months doing whatever they’re doing in the back of my amygdala while I’m asleep. But… I’m sure they’ll let me in on the secret QUICK enough! In the meantime, don’t worry. What you see here is plain, old, Michaelina QUIRK. Promise.

Speaking of the unicorns…

There was apparently some sort of rubber cement accident at the printer’s, and my signups for the Quick Quirk seem to have gotten stuck to the unicorns’ campaign flyers. Until I find myself an amazing literary agent who lands me some major bag and a book advance… I can’t afford to reprint them.

So just… go with it, I guess?
