@oliviacarter321 Thank you! I love the cover so much. Most fun was the villain of the story. They can do whatever they want then meet their demise in a justice sort of way!

I’ve found X really difficult to gain traction. Content falling flat and very little followers (some even unfollow, which is odd). Should I #giveup or #KeepGoing ? Anyone else finding it hard out here?

Anyone else feel like they have more story ideas than they know what to do with? 📖 💭 ❤️ ⏰

@ZB_Steele I’ve tried to name main characters with hidden meaning or used a play on another language for that hidden meaning. Otherwise I just pick a name I love or feels right in the moment! I’ve also gone back and changed their name if it still wasn’t right.

[L.Johnson-Smith @LJohnsonSmith23]

@JMSimpsonauthor That and a synopsis! 😢
