Reader, I did it.
Or...I'm doing it.
I'm finally editing/rewriting Post-Its!
2020 has been a disaster of a year, and I needed to have a writing project that's low-stress and low-commitment, so I decided to start revisit Post-Its. As someone that has an eating disorder and has struggled with anxiety & depression for quite a while, I wanted to expand on the themes I touched on in Post-Its with the perspective that I now have. Post-Its was the first story that I ever completed here on Wattpad, and I wrote it when I was 14, so I know that I have a lot of work to get the story to a point that I feel reflects how I've grown as a writer since then.
My goal is to expand the length of the chapters, provide a little bit more insight into Lizzie's journey outside of school, and do a better job at representing mental illnesses throughout the book. (Side note: while going back to edit, I realized that I hadn't even named my MC in the first draft...so her name is now Lizzie.)
That being said, I am still a full-time student, so I won't have a regular schedule for when I'll update, but I'll try and post them as soon as often as I can. My goal is to have it complete by this spring, but with how uncertain and hectic this year has been, I don't want to make any promises.
Whew...! That was a lot! Thanks for reading, if you made it this far, and thanks for supporting me and my works; it means so much to me.
I hope that wherever you are & whenever you're reading this, you're able to find some peace and joy today.
