  • Mechanics Monday: Brainstorming a Story with Peggyann Kennedy

    Hi, everyone! Welcome to Mechanics Monday. Today, I invite you to join me as I brainstorm a story! This episode is the bare-bones part of planning: the basics of the story, an initial conflict, and a tiny bit about the two characters. If you'd like, I challenge you to join me by grabbing your pencils, pens, notebooks, and journals together and plan your own story, following along with me. I hope you have fun, and happy writing!

  • Fun Friday: Exploring Decopolis in Tulsa, Oklahoma

    Hi, everyone, welcome to Fun Friday with Peggyann Kennedy! Today we're checking out Decopolis, an eclectic and fascinating bookstore with a coffee shop attached to it. It's right off Route 66, too, a historic highway with a lot of history to it. This Decopolis has ice cream and coffee, along with many other things to look at: gems, journals, candy, art canvases and brushes, and games, to name a few! I bought a little Edgar Allan Poe raven, a small Egyptian doodad, some Japanese candy, a canvas, and a caramel coffee! Kimberly Drymon had to drag me away from the books, though...I hope you enjoy this short video and, if you don't live near or around Tulsa, that you can find a fun place like this near you! Let's get out of our bubbles and have a fun, safe weekend!

  • Writer Wednesday: Graphic Nonfiction with Peggyann Kennedy and Special Guest Sean Fitzgibbon

    Hi, everyone! Welcome back to WriteBetterTogether on Spotify! I've finally figured out how to post videos here now, so I will work on (slowly but surely) posting the former videos that I have recorded here in the coming days. Please forgive me for taking so long! I'm learning!

    Today's podcast episode features special guest Sean Fitzgibbon who successfully self-published his own graphic nonfiction novel a few years ago! It is a unique and rare genre, and in it, he combines newspaper clippings, interviews, and his own illustrations to tell a dark, sad, but in the end, hopeful true story about Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Sean Fitzgibbon also discusses his art in connection to his writing as well as his current project, another in his series What Follows is True. Please enjoy, and thank you so much for listening!

  • Remembering Jon Meyers

    I am deeply saddened to share that our friend Jon Meyers passed away suddenly on Sunday.

    I recorded this short message to honor him with your own kind words. I could not read them all, so I encourage you to go to our pages to read the messages from people who wrote about him.

    As you'll hear in this recording, the podcast will not be continuing for now. I had recently shared that I was stepping back as a co-host, and Jon Meyers planned to continue with Peggyann Kennedy. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with him and to produce these 83 episodes. A few more episodes exist that may be published one day. I hope these episodes, as well as our book, continue to encourage you.

  • What You Can Learn From A Positive Writing Conference Experience #writingcommunity #networking #authorlife

    EP 79) Writer Peggyann Kennedy joins Jon Meyers to discuss what they learned at WriterCon 2025. With over 300 attendees (such as Peggyann) and over 60 speakers (such as Jon Meyers), we thought we'd share the benefits that anyone attending next year can enjoy. It would be impossible to list every highlight and every connection we made, so we talked about a wide array of experiences. Finally, we both reflected on the event's remarkable positivity.WriterCon Contest Winners 2025CHILDREN’SHM: Sheila Gunlock: Sea Odyssey AdventureHM: Suzanne Clement: Mind-Travelers1 st Runner-Up: Tamiko Nesbitt: Homeless and AloneWINNER: David Corbly: Pierre the Potty-Mouthed PirateYOUNG ADULTWINNER: Shari Heinrich: Want a S’more?INSPIRATIONAL1 st Runner-Up: Joyce Hanewinkel: Listening with My Heart and My EyesWINNER: Shelley Malicote-Stutchman: When Social Media PraysNONFICTION1 st Runner-Up: Richard Kimlinger: Two Creative Minds AgreeWINNER: Shelley Levisay: Deadly DysfunctionMEMOIRHM: Greg Blovits: Fish RulesHM: Jane Speheger: Ebenezer1 st Runner-Up: Hannah Muoa: A Pop-Up PupuseriaWINNER: David Barnett: KomorebiPLAY/SCREENPLAYHM: Jonathan Sweet: One-Eyed JaxHM: Sheila Gunlock: Oh God…OH GOD!1 st Runner-Up: Mark Mulkerin: The Secret Life of MarshmallowsWINNER: Ryan Brandt: Zombie The MusicalPOETRY1 st Runner-Up: Tamiko Nesbitt: My Daddy’s SmileWINNER: Peggyann Kennedy: AcheFLASH FICTION1 st Runner-Up: Zachary Noland: EssaysWINNER: Kyra Walters: Divinity and SinFICTIONHM: Peggyann Kennedy: The Attic1 st Runner-Up: Susan Starling-Nye: When In Doubt, Wear RedWINNER: Regina Mullennix: The Yule King’s CursePUBLISHED YOUNG READERSWINNER: Ta’Shay Mason: Let’s CelebratePUBLISHED NONFICTIONHM: Aubrey Green: Grief Explored1 st Runner-Up: Josh C Jones: America If You Can Keep ItWINNER: Henry Rausch: SubmergedPUBLISHED POETRY1 st Runner-Up: Aubrey Green: Yearly ExamWINNER: Kelley Morris: When the Glass BreaksPUBLISHED FICTIONHM: Betsey Kulakowski and J.B.
