yeah me too! I tend to write in a less traditional way. I don't write in order, I have a basic outline and then write scenes as inspiration hits me and then I weave those scenes together. I don't know why authors don't talk about process as much

When you find the person that makes every negative experience you've had worth it because it brought you to them.

Love is a dangerous game and, in this prison, losing means death.

Beneath the Chains of Darkness is a forced proximity, dark romance. It's scheduled to release this summer!
