Slow to start, but picked up speed towards the end. Felt good. Thanks for asking!

Ha!

Yeah, I'm warming up with just focusing on this scene's dialogue. The interiority will follow afterwards.

Got a debut high fantasy novel that's gotta get out of my head. Running out of space up there. 😆

What kind of stuff are you writing?

First draft. 50K into my 100K word count target, so just at the midpoint.

How about you?

MC realizing that the authority figure she despises the most actually has a shred of humanity, and is the best to throw in with out of a litany of bad options.

That's the core thread that my loose ends must wrap around. Thanks for asking!

Writing anything yourself right now?

This. Absolutely.

Gotta tie it back to character growth.

Welcome to Bluesky! Always happy to meet other writers.

Would showing it to a trusted reader help?

It’s just the worst. 🫠

Oof. Yeah, it’s absolutely more difficult than starting fresh. So many tiny, frayed threads that all have to be woven in.

But it sounds like it will be worth it.
