Hey everyone! Chapter 24 of the Magic Within Me is out and I apologize for the lateness.
To be completely honest this was the hardest chapter I've wrote so far. A lot of the context and backstory about Victoria throughout the book is based on me. Victoria's personality, trauma, and self acceptance etc are all things that I'm going through while writing or what had happened before. In the chapter today it was most of the things that had happened to me -the grades that happened differently for the sake of personal information-.
The past few days I had been thinking of why I was the way I was and what was wrong with me. Now, I think I figured out most of it. However the reason I wrote about it was mostly because I knew that I'm not the only one going through it. When writing Naia's dialogues I was using quotes from my mom who I've learned to connect with now. I also added some of my personal opinions and all. It was really hard figuring out how I was going to put them all together. I was going to have Victoria tell the story to Draco, then decided to just write it out plainly for people to read. It would be easier.
I guess this chapter didn't have much to do with the actual plot. However I am so glad to write it. I hope that everyone who's going through these things can maybe pick a few ideas up from this chapter. I know I didn't have all the solutions to the problems, but once I do, I'll make sure to add it.
Love, Victoria Shine
