A.C. Weston's latest update for She Is the End

Dec 16, 2016

HELLO 

IT’S ME

(did I already do this reference in a previous update? whatever, my memory is shot to hell right now so i’m gonna go with it)

I WAS WONDERING IF AFTER ALL THESE MONTHS YOU’D LIKE AN UPDATE

TO GO OVER EVERYTHING

I’D FORGOTTEN HOW IT FELT TO DEPENDABLY SEND UPDATES AND MAKE PROGRESS ON MY MANUSCRIPT

...The world has shifted, a new human exists that didn’t exist outside my body before, and I’m BACK. 

Here’s the peanut that has been taking up all of my time and energy and brain power:

This is Eleanor. She’s the bee’s knees.

Now that I’ve gotten through a few weeks of recovery, I’m back to editing my book! The crazy postpartum hormones left me wanting to read a ton of emotional books, watch a ton of science fiction movies, and listen to a bunch of new music. I think I’m filling up my creative tank while I rest my brain and body, and soon I’ll be able to make those next-level edits that really polish my book into something special.

I’ve been listening to these songs over and over again, for reference (sorry not sorry to all the pop music haters):

Let’s Hurt Tonight by OneRepublic

I’ll Be Good by Jaymes Young

I Found by Amber Run

Go listen to those while eating oatmeal cookies and crying, and you will have insight into my brain right now. 

I’ll let you all know as soon as I send out the second half of my book to beta readers (because no, I didn’t get it done before the baby came... the end of pregnancy is hard, my friends) and then I’ll tell you when the thing is done done. 

And then I’ll cry some more!
