happy friday y’all! hope everyone has been staying cool in this super hot weather. a few days ago i got back from a MUCH needed vacation and spent time by the ocean, which is always creatively energizing for me and my water placements. 🌊

in terms of updates:

• i had a major plotting and characterization breakthrough for one of the baddies during break 👀 it’s not quite relevant to the current narrative yet which just means that i have more time to leave breadcrumbs as we lead up to it!
• this week we passed 1k words! that covers most of the first scene of chapter three, where y’all will be meeting another deity 🌄
• i’m swinging my leg over and settling into the saddle with daily and weekly writing goals. i don’t want to make promises with the timeline quiet yet, just know that i’m working on eotm regularly now that i’ve had some time to rest from a chaotic first half of my work calendar. 

thanks so much for your patience y’all! hope you have a refreshing weekend ❣️
