That would feel very strange! I'm just filling out this review form because YIKES, I have a novel on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ!
This is not the first novel I've written, only the first I managed to get published, and I did not start out in short fiction � I only began writing shorts a couple of years ago. The "read" dates are roughly the amount of time it took to write, revise, and hand in my completed edits on it. I'm super slow, sorry! I wrote this book while crawling through a very difficult period of my life, and though it is far from perfect I am still really happy to have seen it across the finish line.
This is not a novel I ever thought I'd write, but then this isn't the life I ever thought I'd lead, so maybe those things go hand in hand? Hope you enjoy, Dear Reader. My apologies if you don't.
I know that this book will not be for everyone, and that is completely okay! I hope your next book pleases you better <3
