Oh hi! Just popping in to update everyone on my writing journey and what’s happening with my manuscript. 📝
I’m in the drafting process, trying to make my novel as perfect as I can, and I decided to apply for an intense workshop called “Write Your Novel” through the @writerscentreau . Honestly, I thought I had zero chance of getting accepted because I have absolutely no experience in writing. In order to apply, I had to provide 3000 words of my novel to see if my writing was good enough for the workshop.
Well, imagine my surprise when I got a little email in my inbox saying I was accepted! I was absolutely gobsmacked and thrilled. 💛🐛
The workshop involves sharing your manuscript with 16 other writers (and a tutor) for honest feedback and vice versa. It’s a bit daunting putting myself out there to be critiqued, but hey, I’m ready to make my manuscript awesome for everyone. Who knows, maybe I’ll be able to get my novel somewhere at the end of the 6 months.
Wish me luck! 🤭

Part ✌🏽
In the next episode of filling the bags with goodies, I wanted to show my appreciation to my beta readers.
To thank them for critiquing my manuscript, I’ve included some knick-knacks to help set the mood and promote relaxation.
My goal is to make this book as good as possible, so I might need more beta readers in the future.
Aren’t they cute? Or are they cute? 🥹

Switching things up on the feed with something different. 😉
Bringing you guys on an exciting journey, involving my friends and family in reading and critiquing my manuscript of half of my romantic novel in the creating. But first, let’s make some adorable canvas bags for them.
I made a big mistake with the printing process - I’m quite mad with myself. But all I can do is laugh at the moment and learn from this experience about the intricacies of using online printing services. 😅
Stay tuned for part two, where I’ll share the small goodies I included in the bags before sending them out.
This process might not be thrilling for everyone, but it’s new and educational for me. I honestly have no idea where it will lead, but it’s fun and I think it’s great to document. Enjoy!

REELS ACTUALLY HELP! 😆👇🏼
But seriously, my dream client is those who love what I do, it’s that simple 💁🏼♀️
What I mean by that, is that the wrong client for me is…
❌ Someone who expects rushed work
❌ Someone who is seeking the lowest price possible over value and expertise.
❌ Someone who prefer dictating every design detail without flexibility
❌ Don’t love my work/ my art or value my images
❌ Doesn’t love my vibe hehe
I learnt this a long time ago, that you don’t want to work for people who don’t value you, you’ll just be stressing yourself out. Work with people that are so on your level and that can throw in a good time and support 🤘🏽
And.. what I meant by Reels actually help, this reel literally made me water my poor plants and give my camera lens a good clean 🧼 So it was actually more productive then it looks.
