Sailor Pluto Persephone

That being said, I still feel pretty good about my progress. I am reading a lot. I've read 30 books in the past six months and have learned so much more about my craft than I have in all my years of writing what felt good. Not knocking writing for yourself by any means, but I plateaued and needed to do the academic work to get to the next level.

In my "real" writing life, I am working on a hard sci-fi novelette that I hope to submit to magazines next year. I'm a long way from the final draft, which is where fanfiction comes back into the picture.

I originally started posting Entangled on AO3 because I could never finish a first draft. At 25,000 words, Entangled is the longest story I've completed. Now, I want to put my energy toward practicing my revision skills.

Hopefully I will be back soon with some writing to share. Thanks to anyone who still checks in and keeps an eye on what I'm up to. I'm really excited about what's to come.
