#wip progress

I think I'll finish it 🤔🐛

Thank you to @corporatebanana @chimneyschewinggum @sugarpenchant and @nzchance for tagging me in this 💜

My busy brain gives me lots of ideas, and my busy body doesn’t have enough opportunity to sit down and type them out. So thanks for anyone that has the patience to look forward to my writing; and has seen the same ole WIPs and ideas that I keep claiming to be working on or to want to write *someday*.

It's been rough 'cause it's basically a complete rewrite as I type it up?

And then the next round of revisions is both terrifying and exciting because that's when I get to streamline story details and fix sentence structures.

Ohhh and then I have some restructuring to do of the first 10-ish chapters, which I'm mapping out now using notecards so I can track details and clues across the story.
