Status Updates From Filler book

"Well, I've come to realize that maybe the people meant for leading are the people who never wanted to lead. Those who want to lead tend to grab hold of power too quickly and don't treat it with respect. Those who don't want it tend to shy away from it until they see the value and can respect it."

"Don't you forget, you are made in the image of the Creator. You are wonderfully made, and eternally loved in His eyes. Anytime you feel worthless, that's just lies whispering in your ear. But just because you hear a whisper doesn't mean you need to believe."

sooooooooooooo I'm gonna change two of the main characters names 🫣

ugh I'm a monster 😭 why'd I do that to him 😭😭😭😭😭😭

"The reality hit her like a blow to the head. Except it hit her heart."

characters struggling to get away from mortal peril and all my beta readers are just wondering if the cat is okay

“Do you see it my darling? The shooting star?” The words were a soft, gentle whisper tickling his ear, and he craned his neck towards the heavens, eyes seeking but not finding.

"Sometimes when you are drowning, your best friend is the only person who knows how to pull you out. How to get air to your lungs and your heart beating. How to teach you to dry off, and stand up to try again with renewed vigor.
And they are the only people who can show you how to smile and actually mean it."

"Sometimes, Archenora thought, it's better to live in blissful ignorance than constant and unrelenting fear."

"She wondered how it had become so easy to speak of these events, as if they hadn't happened to her. Like she views it from the outside. When it first happened, she could hardly think of anything else, yet her mind begged for an escape from the thoughts. She smiled at how she overcame the trauma. Maybe she could do this."

Day 2 of having yall ask me five weird, wacky, or logical questions about my WIP! First five questions get answered, one question per person pls. It’s a YA medieval fiction story following a young man named Percy and his fight for his family and his homeland.

"The stars were cold bright specks. Near the horizon in the west, the sky was slightly lighter, but in the east, the dark blue had swirls of purple and even a little pink near the biggest star clusters. It was marvelous. A comet streaked across the night, and Jaycob laid down on the ground. There were no thoughts crowding up his brain like was too familiar a feeling, but instead there was only a blissful peace."

""The sky is . . . blue," Jaycob stared up at the sky.
Crest glanced up. "You're right, the sky is very vibrant, more so than usual."
"Very vibrant," Jaycob continued. "Sky blue with a hint of turquoise, growing darker and less turquoise near the horizon.
Jordyn raised his eyebrows. "You realize you're rambling about the color of the sky?"
"A perfectly normal thing or ramble about," Jaycob retorted."
😂

no because the word "hearty" just sounds like home

“…I hope ye ken that a’ll go with ye. To hell’s gate or beyond.” Kaimen’s voice was strained, but firm, and Percy realized just how much he meant it.

I decided it would be fun to have y’all ask 5 questions once a day about my WIP till it’s finished. First five questions get answered! And only one question per person pls so that everyone has a chance!

I’m 100% one of those writers who wants people ask fun, absurd, and logical questions about my books:)

I'm excited to get to the part that I wrote more recently that I know has slightly better writing 🤪

Working on the World Guide for my wip(s) 😆

Reverberated. What a yummy word

typing notes on Kindle takes an excruciatingly long time...

starting editing my book :) <3

The Blood Steeds were an ancient breed of horses that stretched as far back as the creation of the world. Some said that they were the first horse; the mother of all other horse kinds.

“You’re right, Kaimen. I am proud of who I am. But not who I was.”

He was the forgotten son of the castle, flitting in and out of the shadows and never stepping out of line. Until he hears the broken truth that could bring the kingdom to its knees.

Using this for my medieval ya book “The Lordling”

Will post quotes, teasers, and other such things as I write!
