  1. Went on a walk to the lake with my beloveds today hoping to help myself brainstorm a response to day 7 of Story-A-Day May. It didn't work, but I got to reflect on how lucky I am to live where I do.

    And when I got home, a message from my kiddo gave me the plot inspiration I needed. The story is decent enough that if I ever make a short story collection from my faerie world, it will include a revision of today's product. So that's pretty yay.

  2. As I've mentioned before, these are backstories. I was originally planning to end with her getting the tickets and being all adorably hopeful, but I was a little sad, because I knew the LI was slated to break her heart. (You can't have a second chance romance story without people blowing their previous attempt together.) BUT now she makes a new friend who I think is going to wind up being important to her, so I got to end optimistic as well. :)

  3. Story-A-Day update:
    Today's prompt was a story with two characters wanting the same thing but disagreeing about some part of it.

    I wrote a scene with friends who want to go to college together but are looking for very different things in a school. I don't think what I ended up with stands alone as a story, but as an exploration of the backstories and personalities of two of the MCs from My Next Faerie Novel, it went really well.
