takes a deep breath
I finished the first draft of my book. Next up, reading the feedback from my beta readers, and polishing. But the first draft is DONE.
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

“Not dead yet!”
Wheeeeee, Jilli!
I know I owe you scads of feedback, but actually, I think this is going to be good-- I'm going to read in order, beginning to end and give you overall impression. Is that good?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Jilli, I'm so "I KNOW HER!!!" about you.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Congrats Jilli, that's a huge accomplishment.
Burrell, if you still need readers I'd be happy to help.
Oh thank you, that'd be great lisah.
