No progress on my RevPit manuscript- but I've really enjoyed the feedback on my pages and that's going to be my next step!
✍️ 📖 I've felt really stuck with where to go with my novel in the revision process, especially after tightening the plot.
Any tips?🤔

D5: My FMC Kaylani has a twin sister, Zen, and they are opposites. I've loved exploring the sisterly dynamic with conflicting worldviews while also staying tuned into their familia loyalty. I have two older sisters so I've loved being able to put my own experience into this! #CRPShrikes #Camprevpit
D3: So cliche it's embarrassing - I had a dream, but honestly it was the nightmare version. Woke up, wrote notes about what happened and the story just spiraled from there 😂🌪️
Bonus: My therapist suggested creative writing as a hobby to give the analytical part of my brain a rest 🤓 #CRPShrikes
Also it's funny that the creative writing was supposed to be "a hobby" and now it is one of the most fulfilling parts of my life. (also writing is hard work, stress-inducing, and truly an artform born from blood, sweat, and tears poured onto a page = so much more than a hobby)

✨Sitting on my desk to finish: Brimstone
🌟 Laughed out loud: Dungeon Crawler Carl
✨When the Moon Hatched (fantasy fav)
⭐️ The Inheritance by Ilona Andrews (surprising favorite!! Loved this one!)
I always love, with a dose of insecurity biased loathing, re-reading finished drafts of a manuscripts ~ in a sense I love the story fully blooming into something deeper with each of my characters 💙❤️ in another sense the perfectionist in me wrecks havoc on my mindset 🖤✨⭐️
Day behind 😅 I usually know the ending before I know the beginning. It comes to me easier anyway..
Now for the end of my current project/series... still working that out. This past week I've wanted to set 🧨 to my current ending and go for the unexpected.
Bonus: Revising w/ feedback!

They say you can learn a lot about somebody by their bookshelf… so here’s a peak of mine:

✨Just finished: Glow of the Everflame
⭐️Series to finish: the Kindred’s Curse
