I feel like unpublishing Girls Like Girls. While I’m very pleased that it has resonated with many, I don’t think that I, a straight person, have the right to write about the struggles of the LGBTQ community. Back when when I wrote GLG it was to help me get out of my writers block, and I have to admit that my understanding of the struggles that GLG faces was quite shallow then. It’s still something that’s on my mind, so if you have any opinion about it I’d be glad to hear them :)

@ChristineLLY Honestly, if you're passionate about writing it, I'd suggest to continue it. It's not about having the right to write about it. What's important is that you have created something that not only you love but your readers, like you said, resonate in it.

Yup. While I was editing it, I realised that it has too many loopholes that I couldn’t solve. So I decided to take it down. It hurts me as well because I really liked the book, but I don’t want my readers to end up confused with such a complicated plot with so many changes
