Update Link: You’re Not Sorry – Part 88

We came so close to an update yesterday — I had the time, but I only slept about 3 hours on Sunday night and struggled through work. By the time I got home, I was just completely done.

One of the real struggles of writing a story like You’re Not Sorry is that I can’t write all the scenes I really want, lol. There are so many pieces I want to do more with, including more into the Liason relationship which I don’t know if I’ve done my best with. I look at the Flash Fictions like first drafts, and while there’s a certain amount of planning that goes into it — I don’t really let myself get married to those plans. If I’m writing a scene and it feels better to go in a different direction, I’ll do that. For the novels, it gets cleaned up in edits, but Flash, it sort of just lives there, lol. The messiness drives me insane, and I do try to minimize it but this story is stupid long.

I am absolutely planning to rework this one as a full length novel once it’s done (in the background because I have a thousand other things to do) and I have so many ideas. But please just know — if you’re feeling that something is missing, I feel it, too. And don’t hesitate to point it out! I read your feedback as ongoing beta readers — you shape the narrative as I write it, and will incorporate what I can in edits.
