#CleanWIP Half-Price Bride: Josh’s countenance sobered. “Clint, you need to forgive your stepfather. Let go of the bitterness. You don't realize how your anger is hurting those you love.”
"Josh, I appreciate your honesty. Now, you go back inside and give me some time to think.”

“He was angry at first, and that was rough,” said Ellie, her eyes filling with tears. “But it didn’t take very long for him to forgive me. Now things between us are wonderful again.”

“Well, he’s a very sweet boy. I’ve always said so.”

“He gets that from me!”

“Ha!” #CleanWIP

He didn’t understand how she could #forgive so effortlessly. To move on from the horrors with such ease. While his own nightmares take a stronger hold every time he tried to move on to brighter days. #CleanWIP

The CleanWIP Experience

We work closely with published authors and writers who are aspiring to be published as well as other creative people such as artists, poets, and songwriters in our CleanWIP MeWe group for authors (et al) and via the #CleanWIP hashtag game to bring readers interesting sneak peeks into their works-in-progress plus full-featured articles, personal reflections on the thoughts and struggles from a rough draft to a published work, and special collaborations on various topics.

We encourage authors to use the #CleanWIP hashtag to share sneak peeks related to the day’s theme from unpublished works. This helps us provide content our readers love and expect. For the same reason, we also encourage use of the hashtag for a single relevant release day announcement. On Fridays, we relax the structure even further and encourage using #CleanWIP to share relevant news, interesting teases from a work-in-progress or published work (purchase links encouraged on Fridays), or something else our readers might love. Actual use of the hashtag is not within our control and even on this site we will sometimes share #CleanWIP content that doesn’t strictly meet these guidelines.
