Well, I’m feeling rather dejected. Went on a quest to try to start a group chat with fellow creatives and either got no answer or a big fat no :(

HDR was originally meant to be enemies to lovers but it decided to follow the mate bond trope instead 😆

I’m having fun map making XD but I really need to work on the actual book too. Lmao.

One more day until I have three days off. I just wanna do nothing but read and write. Possibly work on maps. So much to do, so little time to do it.

I did write sci fi but I’m taking a step back so my fantasy works can take center stage.

NEW RELEASE!

If I’d known what I was going to be wagering for, I would have listened to my stupid brothers when they explained Poker. Everything important to me was riding on this one game. Sweat broke on my brow.

My husband has a coworker that could straight up be a cult leader bc he’s just got a charming and charismatic personality. He’s managed to convince my husband to play pickleball every week. 🤣

It would seem that no matter what version of HDR I’m on, the FMC will always have a nemesis who wants her 💀
