My writer brain while watching KPop Demon Hunters:
How does Jinu know the 4 guys? Did they become friends in the demon world or did he pick randos? What’re their backstories? 🤔

Am I the only one who doesn’t make a playlist for their book? 😅 I don’t have songs that match scenes. It’s just silence & whatever is happening on the page. 😂

If I have 10 audiobooks on loan, at 10 hours each, and do 6 hours a day at 2.2x speed…with a 14 day limit…& 3 more loans come in on day 7…& 3 more on day 3…

New Girl meets Gilmore Girls when Leah is sent to live with strangers and work with a grumpy coffee shop owner to prove her work ethic, but as mishaps and banter ensue, tension rises like dough between Leah and Alaric, making her question her future plans.

I have 8 audiobooks waiting for me & decreasing in loan days & I still couldn’t DNF a 17 hr book that I was not invested in 🙈
Fingers crossed I fit all these in 🤞😅

My self-imposed writing deadlines & expectations are stressful but it feels SO GOOD when I meet them. 🥂
I’m back on track for revising a chapter a day. These next chapters will require more work though…

Kid is napping.
Coffee is ready.
Headphones are playing roaring fire/rain to cover my other kid's playing.
Time to tackle Ch 7.
I'm on pace for my chapter a day goal to finish revisions by mid-July.
Do you have any summer goals?

That moment when you give in to completely rewriting a scene vs trying to squish CP comments into what you already have.
Sometimes it’s easier & more freeing. But it still takes me a long time to give in 😅 anyone else?

I’m revising the opening of LYAL (the book #amquerying) & did a read through to ensure consistency with the changes. I hit the scenes at the end of act 2 & into act 3 & wow…I’m glad my writing craft has grown & that I could spot what needed to change. I’m glad I did a reread 🙏
