ITS DONE

At 1:34am this morning, I finished Draft 5 of Runaways, the version I revised in 22 days, the manuscript I'll be sending to my editor! Part of me is terrified to send it off and a large part of me is excited to have it out of my hands. I think I'm going to learn a lot from the line editing process and I'm looking forward to seeing the feedback. I really cannot thank my beta readers enough during this last round. Your comments were invaluable in combing through the middle section and figuring out the girl's character arcs and I'm feeling much more confident in this draft now. I think this story is starting to come into its final form and I'm very proud of what it's become.

If you want to support the publication process, consider buying a ko-fi to help cover the second deposit, or check out the stories and stickers that I have on my shop! Every little bit helps!

Nothing gives the same kind of random ego boost like managing to finally clean up your home and making it nice. Like ooh look at me, I'm living like people do, I made myself iced tea and I am eating my snack from a real plate. I got floors and shit.

there should be a socially acceptable way to say "im not sure what to say to that. can you say something different"
