Hi guys,
I know it’s been a LONG time. And I’m sorry. I truly am. If I’m being honest, I needed a break from Benefits and Lovers.
I’m graduating from college guys. It’s bonkers, truly is. I work, go to school, have an internship, and I still write. Just not about Benefits. This is my love child. The lovely story of Dawn Rivers and Jake Dennings. It felt like a stranger was writing their story. I had to force myself to write about them. I didn’t like that feeling. I’ve written other stuff in the meantime, and I’m happier with my work.
Benefits needs a lot of rewrites. And I hate to be the writer who disappears and never returns. My goal is to get published by the end of 2023. But it won’t be Benefits. That’s a project I will have to chip a way at slowly and steadily. It’s a process. I started writing Benefits when I was 16. I’m 23, and now I am just a different person.
I have a few prewritten chapters of Lovers left, but I’m unsure if I should publish them. I technically have 10-15 chapters to write left with Lovers, but I’m going to stop until I’ve finished the Benefits rewrites. I want to start on that this summer. And when I tell you, things are going to be different… things will be. Thank you for being patient, and for the love and support. I will keep you guys updated! I wouldn’t be writing if it weren’t for you.
If you are interested to see the last prewritten chapters of Lovers let me know. Also, if you want to stay updated with me on my writing journey or are interested in my work, maybe I could make an Instagram dedicated to my writing if any of you are interested in that?
Love you guys the most.
Maree
