For those who didn’t see my story, last night, my beautiful cat Purrsey ended up getting pretty sick and had to be rushed to the ER. Luckily, they were able to stabilize him and today he is having a specialist look over his case and go to next steps of his care.

Writer parents!
I'm doing some research, and I'd love to talk to you about your experience as a busy writer with children. We can chat here, in DMs, or on the phone--whatever works for you! It'll only take a couple of minutes; I know how busy you are 😊
Thank you!

Question:
Would you rather have something that teaches you how to revise your novel faster and better? Or something that teaches you how to write a novel that requires less revision altogether?
Lemme know your thoughts!
