Episode 149 Keep Writing, Keep Snacking
We write on the bench, we snack on the bench, we procrastinate on the bench, and we get sentimental on the bench. But we’re still hilarious, we’ll always have that!
Please follow us on TikTok and Instagram – watch for #BenchWriteClub prompts and all things we think are funny (spoiler alert, it’s the same stuff you already love about us or at least what we think you love about us!)
Most importantly - don't give up before you start - KEEP WRITING!

Episode 148 Girls That Slay Yeet
We write on the bench, we snack on the bench, we procrastinate on the bench, and it turns out Tricia was right about the Hunt for Red October on the bench. She wanted to make sure everyone knew that. She was also very wrong about the meaning of yeet. Today we have some #BenchWriteClub announcements, including MORE Bench coming to you in the future!
Watch for #SnackbookTastings on our upcoming reels, including today’s snack. Also, regarding communion wafer snacks – they are called Obleas and are traditional Mexican snacks sometimes made Cajeta inside (caramel).
Speaking of social media - please add us on Threads and Instagram!

We write on the bench, we snack on the bench, we procrastinate on the bench, and today we announce the next #BenchWriteClub prompt for “Steve the Devil Roommate.” Today the snacks have made us even more delirious and we are pleading for your reviews. Did you know you can even review us twice?? If your review is more than a few years old, toss us another. Anything you share on social media, with other writers, with friends… (maybe on our website) it all helps and means so much to us!
