Hi guys, I know, I know, I've been gone for an eternity and then some. I promised you guys that I would work on doing bi-weekly updates and obviously, that didn't work out with my life. Chapter 6 is structured, but no matter how hard I tried I couldn't make the story flow like the past chapters. And I realized I couldn't move forward with it, I couldn't even move forward with my life, not until I yanked on that emergency break and started taking care of myself (physically and mentally). That included writing something else first.
There aren't enough words to describe how much I love Kara's story. This hasn't been the first ongoing story I've written, but this one is very special to me and I've committed myself to finish it. Kara is a complex character I created based on a combination of pieces of my sister and other pieces I added while constructing the book’s outline. Kara represents strength and vulnerability, she's intense and rough around the edges. She has this wildness inside her with a vulnerable side she rarely lets anyone see. Kara knows suffering, she has tasted fear and choked on insecurity, and her soul is still wrapping itself around acceptance. I really hope you guys get to love Kara's character development as much as I love it.
P.S. I created a playlist in Spotify with songs that remind me of Kara's character, her feelings, her strength, her loss and loves: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/77WEkVhssjUqHNd2q2jo07?si=729f127690c2456c . Any songs you would like to share?
