Full candor here: I attempted querying for the first time. It didn't go well to say the least. LOL I know that some of my favorite authors got rejected several times before making it big, but that still doesn't soften blow. I took what little critique I got back and am pressing on with new ideas, revisions, and revamps. The publishing world is hard y'all. I'm not giving up, and that in and of itself makes me proud of myself. After publishing my sports romance to Wattpad in October of 2023, I learned that there is an audience for my work. It currently sits at around 56,000 reads as of February 2024. It has been so much fun interacting with the readers and hearing their thoughts about the book, so I published another one! Today, I published the first in a series that I have been working on for the last 3 years. It is an adult "romantasy" novel that involves the Fae titled, The Source .
