I have the sudden suspicion that the novel I'm writing is actually terrible and I'm trying to be pragmatic about it, but it's so demotivating

I strongly encourage readers of indie queer and especially trans books to start using itchio as more of us authors move away from Amazon. Authors get a bigger cut, you can tip, and, most importantly, you will actually own your ebooks instead of just licensing them from Amazon.

A screenshot of a list of documents - the last few chapters of the first draft of my novel.

I'm celebrating today because I finally finished the first draft of my novel!

This has been two years in the making. There's still so much left to do, but the first draft is DONE. #writingcommunity #booksky
