The lovely Sara Grant @authorsaragrant.bsky.social who was my creative writing tutor @ Goldsmiths university is running a workshop on editing your novel! Sara is extremely knowledgeable and I learned a lot from her. This is a great opportunity! #Writingcommunity #novel #Amwriting

Going to have to cut a character I really like from my novel. I want to keep her, she's so fun but ultimately doesn't add much to the main story.
