#CleanWIP Half-Price Bride: The reverend scanned the crowd. “Fair warning, sister or brother. One seemingly harmless lie can lead to a dozen, to cover the original one. After you tell the first lie, it is difficult to admit you were not completely honest. Pride gets in the way."

“What kind of organization leaves its people defenseless in a war to save the world, General?”
“Well, that is a hypothetical and I don’t answer those, but you’re still standing here and I’m trying to determine for what purpose? Next question, you in the Bozo costume.” #CleanWip

“This is Barley, Oats, and Rye.”
How original. She thought. “Kittens? Where did you get them?”
“Now Jo, I was fixing a flat and heard a noise. Then I saw the box. Looked inside & found these poor homeless creatures. I thought. Jo always need more cats around the farm.”#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 Facebook 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We encourage authors to use the #CleanWIP hashtag to share sneak peeks related to the day’s theme from unpublished works.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.
