Does anyone else write scenes out of order because the emotional logic comes before the plot?

Now, listen and I will tell you of Zitara. About her steps, missteps and triumphs. The silences and the whispers. The pain and the harmony. For a guardian remembers all, even when the child forgets.

I’m revising a book that started as one story and quietly became another.

Turns out the second one is the one I needed to tell.

Five years on one book teaches you patience, doubt, and how to stay anyway. Still writing.

Took five years to write the latest. Not budding, just still growing.

First post here. I’m a budding writer trying to be brave about putting words into the world. Here to learn, share, and keep showing up to the page.
