Anyone else write over 30k of a new book (twice with the same book) before realizing you were writing from the wrong character’s POV? No? Just me?

I do not know why my novel WANDERERS is a mere buck-ninety-nine at your favorite electric bookmonger site of choice, but it is, so if you want, y'know, creepy sleepwalking disease peri-apocalyptic sci-fi horror with a hefty dash of EAT SHIT A.I., then hey, it's 800 pages for 199 pennies.

I use my library all the time. I’ve written so many of my books there and most of the books I read are from the library. It’s my second home.
