I wrote a short story recently. You can read it for free here!
The gist:
She has to leave to realize her dream.
He wants her to stay so they can be together.
Some choices are meant to break us.

2.5 years, and now it's done. I don't even know how to feel right now, which is odd because this is my 8th book. Maybe it's because I've never restructured to this degree before, or maybe it's that I'm so invested in this story. I guess it hasn't sunk in yet that the book is done

I have one chapter left in my book to revise, and then it's done. I've been working on this book for 2+ years. The final draft is nothing like the first draft (a first for me). I really believe in this book; this series is my legacy, so to speak, the thing I'll leave in this world when I'm gone.

Since I’ve been editing and revising my WIP for about a year, I haven’t actually written much. Today I added a new (needed) scene to the book, and it feels so good to have written something from scratch again. That feeling is so unique and exhilarating!

I’ve taken the week of from revising my book. However, the other night the creeping feeling that I’m wasting time returned (this always happens when I try to take time off), and I revised a few pages.
I hate that my brain won’t let me rest.

I’ve been working on my current book for 2+ years now. Final draft is almost done, but I need to write 3 new scenes, and I’m so nervous about writing them.
What if they’re not good or they do work as intended?
Do all writers get this annoying fear??

My #WIP is in the final stage, and I’ve realized I need to add 3 scenes. I’m actually nervous about writing them. Does anyone else get anxious about writing new scenes?!

“Do you still?” she asked with a narrowed gaze.
He grinned. “Every day of my life.”
