Hey, everyone! I know no one’s probably going to read this, but I’ve got a new project in the works. I don’t plan on releasing it until I’ve finished every chapter because I want to finally say I’ve completed a book that’s at least somewhat decent. But that’s beside the point.

Seraphine raised an eyebrow. "You're always your toughest critic."

"College is almost over," Jared murmured, more to himself than to Seraphine. "Guess we'll see where I end up."
She tilted her head, watching him. "You'd better not keep that talent locked away," she said softly, her voice laced with encouragement.
Jared paused, letting her words linger momentarily, before resuming his work with a small smile tugging at his lips.
