So.... I got 26 pages of feedback from my editor/beta reader, and the gist is that my book is not only marketable, but something that will make waves.

Fragments of Tomorrow explores identity, control, and love in a world reborn from ruin.
Hope is resistance. Humanity is a choice.

I'm one order away from hitting my goal of 10 pre-orders for my upcoming book. I want to celebrate, but I'm also worried that these are the only orders that I'm going to get.
The struggle is real! 😩😩
