One minute crawled after the other, and eventually William came poking his sooty little face into the mess to complain that the orphanage he’d been dragged to was as cold as tinned winter. Tinned winter—the prison. It had been cold. Shivering, icy, morally, cold.#CleanWIP

A cold wind blew across the plains. A stranger drifted into Diablo. One look at him and you saw trouble. He holed up in the hotel, spending the #winter alone. One night he walked into the saloon and downed a few. He was gone at sun up, as was all the money in the bank. #vss365

Review

“First of all, I have to say I really loved this book! It’s a perfect winter wonderland setting, and full of Santa’s reindeer – plus Ronny – who is the hero of the story, and rightfully so! I loved that we got to meet Rudolph,…”https://t.co/Yf10BhQORn #mglit #kidlit pic.twitter.com/eCossYHYeH

The CleanWIP Experience

For a time, CleanWIP Magazine worked closely with published authors and writers who are aspiring to be published as well as other creative people such as artists, poets, bloggers, and songwriters in our CleanWIP collaboration group for authors (et al) and via the #CleanWIP hashtag to bring readers interesting sneak peeks into their works-in-progress and published books 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. Though the magazine is no longer active, this site might still prove an enjoyable way to meet your next favorite author.

We still encourage writers who market their work as clean to use the #CleanWIP hashtag on any social platform to share sneak peeks from yet-to-be-published works. 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.
