The last year, like for so many, has been hard. My mom passed in March after a cancer battle that was a little over two and a half years long. As someone with bipolar 2, yeah. It's been hard.
What I haven't told many people about is the magical thinking that accompanied the grief. In the back of my mind was this thought that if I just never finished this book, I could keep her alive. But of course I couldn't.
And today, I'm happy to announce that I'm nearly ready to query my book.
I also finished writing two short scripts that I'm hoping will be on YouTube by summer. I'm poking along with learning Unreal Engine in the hopes of making a movie-like thing out of one of my short stories too, mostly for funsies :D
A new story is in the planning stages too, so hopefully you'll be hearing a lot more from me soon!
