I'm so happy to hear from you again! I wanted to congratulate you on your third draft, pulling off such a feat is very impressive and I can't wait to be able to read it! As someone that likes the idea of writing but is finds the actual process of it excruciating (although rewarding when looking back), I think it's extremely normal to find writing difficult, especially when it becomes your work, inevitably it will be an activity full of ups and downs. Anyways congrats again and looking forward to hear from you!!

Thanks, Yoh!! I think it's especially easy to romanticize creative pursuits like writing, art, etc.--but they are still "work" at the end of the day, no matter how you cut it. It's probably just a nostalgia for the days of childhood, really... where we got to draw and sing when it didn't feel like "work." 🥲 Thanks for reading!

Congrats on your third draft! I appreciated the diagram you included with the circles and arrows. I think it effectively/concisely communicated a concept that takes a lot more words to describe

I'm so happy to hear that! I was trying to explain to my editor what my goals were, and the diagram/drawing was the easiest way I had of doing so... glad my stick-figure drawings made sense, haha
