We sold ours at half price books. They always have a really good clearance section, so we were able to get a lot of kids books for the credit we got from selling

That's an excellent idea! That was one of my favorites as a kid

And if you're not a reader, you could put a few nonperishable food items or hygiene items for those in need instead. I'm trying to be better at giving back to my community more. What are some other small things you all do to give back to your local community?

That's exactly what we did! We were able to get a bunch of books on clearance too. We're going to keep them in the car and drop off a few every time we pass one of the little libraries

lol for us it's books that maybe aren't as relevant for us anymore or that we know we won't read again. We sell them/give them away so they can have a second life and others can enjoy them!

I'm still trying to figure that out, but because I'm a bit of a haphazard writer I tend to do like 4ish drafts to make sure the story is the best I can make it.

I've found that allowing myself to deviate from an outline or plan helps my stories be stronger in the long run because sometimes as I write I come to understand my themes or characters better whilst writing. That allows me to come up with plot points that end up suiting the story I'm telling better

If the planned ending I came up with doesn't end up fitting the story, I'll often write a new outline for draft 2 to make sure the story and structure are cohesive, but I'm not opposed to letting the novel have a mind of its own. I'm 50/50 between planning and winging it when I write

What always happens is I plan it, then the novel gets a mind of its own and goes off the rails, so I end up winging it when I actually get to the ending lol

No matter how far down the rabbit hole you are, you can always dig yourself back out and be better, do better, and show up for the people who need you. Effie teaches us that anyone can fall victim to propaganda, but anyone can also escape it (4/4)
