The more I write of this story, the more it starts making sense. If I can pull off the new unreliable ending, that's going to be a book I'll be hella proud of

I've just started writing the obituary—I mean synopsis—of my current WIP, The Forgetting Study. Please send flowers and chocolate 🥲

DARK x RECURSION #PopUpPit #LuckyPit #PopUpPitA Deep within the murky Roman baths, a murder keeps looping: same method & motive, hundreds of years apart. Now a detective & a plant lady must solve it & break the loop—before the world rewrites itself & they're the next victims.

Belated thanks to everyone who supported me yesterday for #PopUpPit, especially since it was a last minute decision for me to do it! I hope you all had a lovely pitch event. See you in the query trenches!

After weeks of intensely revising the first 50 pages of my current work-in-progress, I am proud to have sent a very belated entry to the Claymore Award! Fingers crossed this is a good year! 🤞

I did a thing these past couple of days! I set aside my main book doc for The Forgetting Study & opened a new document to jot down notes & scenes from the climax without looking at the existing draft. It did me so good, like I was finally no longer trapped by my own mind 😍

A very, very belated thank you to the kind people who supported me during #PosterPit -- some real life emergency kept me away from the internet & writing for the past week, but I am back in action, and very grateful for the kind words!

I've finally managed to get my 2 page synopsis down to 1 page & it's the least passionate thing about writing this book I've experienced so far Bleah
