WIP Quote of the Day! 40 days till beta read applications open. The quote today is from book two because that’s what I’m drafting rn!
"Colvin -" he said thickly.
I closed the distance between us and pulled him into a hug. I guided Isaac's head to rest on my right shoulder as he began to shake with sobs.
"I know; I know," I murmured. "I'm here. I'm not going anywhere."

*runs to add it to calendar* Oh, perfect, two days before the cover reveal for Tractors and Tea Time! I can't wait!
why did this scene make me want to cry when I don’t even know the context or the characters 🥺 and yes, I added the date applications open to my calendar 🤭
I probably won’t be able to beta read (life is lifeing too much right now) but will you be offering arcs at any point? This is a great quote, keep up the good work! 👍
This is so sweet 🥹 Thank you for sharing, and am SO excited for you!!! Also… how does applying for beta reading work?
