Alas, the story has come to an end (all linked chapters at the end). I never would have gotten here without my amazing friends pushing me along the way. I have a feeling I would have lost momentum and abandoned the project if I didn’t have people genuinely enjoying it and, even more so, bothering me for more chapters.
While I did fall a bit off schedule at the end, I still finished it, and that’s more than I expected of myself (if I’m being entirely honest). This is the most I’ve ever published of my writing, the most I’ve ever marketed my own writing, and the most I’ve ever believed in my own writing. Although I’ve gotten to this point a bit later in life, I am grateful I have found my way.
That being said, I was so excited to get this story out that it definitely needs a bit of revising. This is a rough draft, at best. My next goal is to revise and fill out the story into a full novel that I will try to get published. This would be a massive step for me in terms of putting myself out there and creating a full-length novel. And honestly, even if I can’t find a publisher to take it, I still did it and can always self-publish.
I have high hopes for my writing future. And not even in terms of popularity or monetary success. I’m just happy that I’m writing, sharing, and publishing. I never thought I could, never believed in myself, and while I still struggle heavily with sharing my work, I’m going to push forward. Through writing for myself instead of tailoring for certain publishers and the support of my friends, I’m proud of what I have accomplished and will accomplish even more in the future.
Thank you to all my readers and supporters; I literally would not be here without you.
