Nothing like finishing a chapter and realizing you've put the wrong supporting character into a scene. Time to rewrite the whole thing, I guess. No idea how I didn't notice it while writing those pages. 🙃

Never be afraid to write your heart out. To write your ass off. To write until your hands cramp. Because when you look back at the miles of ink behind you you might just have a masterpiece.
