Oh. My. God. It is done.
Elyn, Ar'ek's and Ja'al's story is DONE!

Book 2 & 3 of my MMF Fantasy Romance, The Elemental Bride, is complete. The 1st draft anyway. Editing is going to be heavy work, both novels together are more than 350k words, but we'll think about that tomorrow...

#writinglife
Screenshot with the words 'The End.' in the middle. Screenshots showing the lengths of each draft. Book 2's draft is a hundred and seventy five thousand four hundred and seventy three words, and book 3 has one hundred and eighty seven thousand and sixty words.

Ever finish a book and immediately wish you could discuss it?

The Bonds of Dusk & Dawn series is perfect for that! With an ongoing plot, there's so much to theorize about.

Like who set the curse upon the Ilish Royal family! 🤔

You know the way Gibbs, from NCIS, had rules? I feel like Maomao should have them 2. Rule #1: never find out more than you need to know. Rule #2: never take responsibility, all you did was give an opinion…
