Texas Girl Writes is a blog that explores various mediums of entertainment and information. Founded in June of 2023, I set out to write about the stories in my community and the ones around me. On this pages you’ll find yourself spiraling down the information rabbit hole the path of knowledge tends to take us down. I’ve broken the literature into three distinct sections containing to a variety of different topics. Take a look inside the “Social Commentary” section for pieces about historical viewpoints on social climate. Saddle up with the “Texas News” section for pieces about navigating the south. Finally curl up in your favorite spot and grab a snack to digest the “T.G.W Op-Od” featuring fresh and imaginative pieces.
