Oops. Sorry I dropped off the face of the earth for NaNo (April)! It was a particularly challenging month for me, inspo/writing wise and just life in general.
anyways. Just wanted to pop my head up from the grave to say that I've been working on something for Wattpad. It was my November NaNo project (if you remember that far back); a Frankenstein retelling, really zooming in on Victor and all of his emotions, or, sometimes, lackthereof.
Warning! There is language/a lil gore. :)

For real, though. This may be one of my favorite projects that I've worked on. Ever. the words just seemed to flow (for the most part, lol) and I felt really connected with it. And, generally, reading back over stuff I feel proud instead of discouraged.
It also has many of my favorite lines that I've ever written. Like when I read back over stuff and feel EMOTIONAL or think daaaang, that was a good line.
I feel that I should also say: when I choose a story to write, I usually bounce back and forth between multiple. I know that this is usually frowned upon, but hey. It works for me. Why? I write to sort out my feelings (like, that's actually why I write) and to process emotions or questions. BEFORE THE MONSTER (that's what it's called) was when I was quandering the meaning of life and was going through a particularly lonely season. So. It is really dear to my heart. <3
Goodness, that was a long rant, haha 🙃
