And I'm back!
I'm busy working on my novel, which is why I've barely had the time to work on shorter projects. However, there was a competition at school and then the Wattys and I rewrote an old sci-fi short story I'd done for English class. It got a bit out of hand and instead of being 10k words, it's now 26k (oh, the hours of sleep I lost) but it's finally complete!
I'd like to thank Ana Polo (apolo.png on Instagram) for her beautiful commission. It looks like it was taken straight out of my imagination. Truly a talented person.
Also, for clarification, xx-xx is in the normal/'up-to-date' timeline and oo-oo is for the flashbacks/'old' timeline. I hope it doesn't get too confusing.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy :)
