    Chapter 40

    Hmm. I got a check from grandma's estate, way way more than 10k. 2 days maybe? Over the weekend. But yeah, they wanted a wire transfer for the house. But it's all just technicalities! Things are happening for them, bottom line 😂 Job ✔️ Money ✔️ House ✔️

    I don't want to confirm or deny anything, but I definitely don't agree with this check thing 😂

    I looked mkay! This is Texas, 2015, I knocked it down a little bit for "handyman's special" 😂)
  4. Shaun jolted awake five minutes before five, his heart pounding like an alarm all on its own. It was time for work. He sat up slowly, blinking into the dim attic room. Dreams still clung to him—blood and pain and heat, half-formed scenes that slipped away when he tried to grab onto them. He could still feel them, though, like fingerprints pressed into the back of his skull. He shook his head once, hard, trying to dispel them. When he looked up again, his gaze landed on Brian and Jesse,

    Yes, it's very Shaun-like 😂 I really enjoyed giving Brian a good party 🥲 And the other kids too! I just want everyone to be happy 😂 😂 😂

    Chapter 39

    Agree with everything, except why was Gretchen stupid? Shaun's the one telling her stuff he knows she won't believe! Sigh, there really is going to be 39 more chapters. I keep thinking, almost done, but then I start going into extensive detail on everything 😅 I had one idea for the pop up show... Now it's going to be a whole other saga 😂 see you in 2 weeks!
  7. Jesse woke up disoriented, his heart pounding from dreams he couldn’t remember. The ceiling came into focus first, then the shape of someone beside him, lying perfectly still on their side, arm tucked under the pillow. Jesse turned and found Shaun watching him with that dark, unwavering gaze. And Jesse jerked, his breath catching as it all came flooding back. Sam overdosing. Kyle getting arrested, then promptly making bail. Shaun’s grim insistence on revenge. And then the detectiv

    Chapter 38

    Yay! That's basically exactly the note I wanted to end on, ok, just good for me, that's what I wanted I guess 😂

    Chapter 38

    I feel like this was a hard chapter for me. Whether it was Shaun's choice, or my own mental health that was messing things up, I'm not sure. Just... glad to finish it.

    I'm not sure what to say 😂
  20. Shaun stared up at the ceiling. He hadn’t slept. Not really. Jesse was sprawled half on top of him, warm and heavy, one arm flung across Shaun’s chest, breathing slow and even. Shaun’s own arm had gone numb hours ago, but he hadn’t moved. He’d been lying there for what felt like forever, watching moonlight fade into the gray light of dawn, his mind running itself in circles. It had been about four hours since he’d crawled back into bed. Five a.m. now. Maybe later. From d
  21. I'm doing it too much. I know I am 😭 I really need some hard fast rules 😂
  22. Ok, so, I know this is 'word of the day' but these are interesting instructions for how to emphasize' in writing.... Only, I suck at it! I'm looking through an old story and I'm embarrassed by all the italics and em dashes 😅 Like, I need to calm down 😅 Maybe none is better than too much????
  23. Haha, super late, but.... I’m a woman writing gay fiction, but I don’t write it because it’s “safe” or “romantic.” I write it because I’m drawn to people who live on the edges, characters who don’t fit neatly, who carry damage, who are trying to build family out of what’s left. That kind of alienation isn’t owned by any one gender. It’s just human. For me, that’s what gay fiction does best when it’s written honestly. It gives space to complicated people. That’s the kind of story I want to tell.
