I do not have any essays on the writing life on my profile. However, I am editor and publisher of an ezine for a Facebook writers forum group. The group ezine is not a paid profile or Medium partner so it will always be free to read for all our FB members. Here's the URL to the ezine: https://medium.com/@we-paw-bloggers
Only members of the FB group may be contributors. We have a couple of featured issues focusing on the writing life. In fact, the issue to which members are currently asked to contribute is to generate short stories about their writing journey, how they came to be writers.
