Description
I’m spending this week in meetings with publishing houses, hearing their editorial notes and trying to keep an open mind!! Working on my debut novel so far has been incredibly challenging yet incredibly rewarding, and I cannot wait to see what happens in this process. The one thing I will say is it's rare for a novelist to have a YouTube platform where she can share so openly with her community, so I'm really excited to be giving you insight into this process that you've likely never received.
Next in the vlog, I’m in the car with a rant I’ve been holding in for months. I’m so bored of waking up and putting on jeans and a neutral top, so I started a series on Instagram called Things That Shouldn’t Go Together. I grab one piece and hunt through my closet for the item it looks the “ugliest” with. Growing up, I was told I needed help with style, and it turns out the pairings people called ugly were my style the whole time!!! Have you been following the series? Tell me in the comments if this method is tragic or magic. 🪄
Stick around to the end for a first look at the room Michael and I are turning into our joint office.
