#AmWritingFantasy Here’s a teaser of my new WIP!
🧚🏻 It’s a spin-off sequel to Thorns Among Shadows!
🧚🏻 It’s about Meira and Gaelen’s daughter, Elara (so it’ll be good to have read Thorns!)
🧚🏻 It’s *loosely* inspired by Snow White, particularly with the magic mirror
Follow me for more!

How do you KNOW when, after you’ve done a round or two of alpha reading and self-editing, that a draft is ready for line edits, possibly by a professional editor (depending on finances)? Imposter syndrome is apparently a thing for me with this XD.
