This started as something fun for me to do at the end of a long day at work to relax. But after I showed a few friends the start of what I had written, they encourage me to keep writing my story.

Over the past few years I have been quietly writing my first novel. Now I have made the decision to submit my book.

There was of course a few little things I had to do first.

♡ Come up with a title
♡ Write a synopsis

Fingers crossed. I will let you know how I go
