Hello love,
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Honestly writing is a huge deal - 100%, but at the end of the day I was able to get the book to where it is by advertising it!
Additionally I would say, create manuscripts and plan out each chapters - I really like to use the surprising element at the beginning, letting the readers question it and then give hints thought out the story, so that there is a line in between every chapter and they are all well connected.
Hope that helped also would have loved to know this at the beginning BUT USE AUTOCORRECTION cause god knows how awful my vocabulary was back then.
Much love,
Lani <3
