This November, I’m making a final push to finish editing my second novel. It’s going surprisingly well, considering I also have two projects due for the final term of my MBA. I’ve also started up a list of literary agents to query to in the hopes that one of them might decide to represent this novel. They’ll probably all reject me, but at the moment it’s exciting to think of the possibilities. I’ll try to hold onto that to motivate me for as long as possible, although I’m sure the discouragement will creep in soon enough.

I’m really proud of this second novel. It’s just what I dreamed of writing as a child reading fantastical adventures and thinking of how much I’d like to make one of my own. I love the characters, the adventure, the overcoming of obstacles, and the romance. I’m especially proud of the last two lines. I can’t wait to share them with you.
