Btw, I skipped ahead and really managed to find my way in the chapter. Then I was able to go back and create the transition!

I think the scariest part is knowing that no one will love my characters the way I do.

I think I need to do that tomorrow, because it's really holding me up at this point. Future me had better figure things out.

Ugh. Frustrating, isn't it?

I'm avoiding a chapter that doesn't seem to have a point to it even though it's incredibly necessary to the timeline of the story.

I'm putting my shelved YA sports romance through a major rewrite. I got to chapter 5 and decided it didnโ€™t like it so I thought a change of.perspective would help. It turns out that I really just don't like the chapter. Sigh.

I love this. I incorporate a lot of myself, my memories, my experiences, in what I write. But I've never thought about saving it all in this manner.

Right?! Every once in a while I tell my husband, "can you please just decide? I've been making decisions all day!"

I find that the emotion I deal with most these days, is rage. And it's utterly exhausting.

I am re-outlining a YA sports romance MS that I previously shelved so that I can rework the whole thing. I'm actually so excited about it because I love these characters and I really want to do a better job for them this time around. โค๏ธโค๏ธ

I made a list of Black authors whose books I wanted to read so I'm making my way through those. Currently reading Tiny Pretty Things and Legendborn is next.

I have officially made it to Chapter 4 of my 3rd-to-1st person rewrite. Yay! I missed these characters! But I'm also realizing that I have an opportunity to tighten the story up a bit. It's actually invigorating!

Didn't you know that children suck the energy out of their parents through osmosis? It's a known fact. If we could figure out how they do it, I think we'd solve the energy crisis before breakfast. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

At least this is a dystopian I can control. ๐Ÿคฃ

Querying a Dystopian YA in Dystopian times is a little too on the nose. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

I have a YA sports romance that I shelved after getting no traction with it. Originally written in 3rd person, I've decided to do a major rewrite, and change it from 3rd person to 1st person. I'm not sure if it's a good idea but I love these characters so much that I'm not ready for them to die yet.

I have to admit that I'm struggling with writing lately. Between the state of the world, a medium-sized medical issue, and my brain still being in the world of my querying book, my creativity has suffered. I'm about halfway through my current WIP but I feel like I haven't gotten anywhere recently.

I only ever get panic attacks at night now. It's sooooo annoying (beyond being scary and all that).
