Here are the opening lines for DRAGONFRUIT (4.9.24). I tossed out just about everything from my first draft 😫, but these words I kept.

Morning! Swipe for a look at my writing process. Scary, isn’t it? 😊👀 This page is from my upcoming book, DRAGONFRUIT (maybe don’t look too closely if you’d like to avoid minor spoilers). I write and edit by hand, mostly, which means I go through a lot of pencils. My pages tend to look like this one in the beginning stages, but also in the late stages. I’m so appreciative of early readers who can see what I’m trying to do even if I haven’t quite done it yet. ♥️
