One more week and I can call this draft done. *phew*
I prefer revising/editing to getting a story on paper in the first place.
“I want to help you, but you’ve got to help yourself.”
I wanted to trust him. I did trust him, but not with this. Not with her. Not yet.
I was too used to hiding her in my heart to crack open the door wide enough for him to slip inside.
For more Six Sunday goodness, check out the official website here.
* The “her” in question is the heroine’s daughter. 🙂
Hailey writes about questionable applications of otherwise perfectly good magic, the transformative power of love, the family you choose for yourself, and blowing stuff up. Not necessarily all at once. That could get messy.
