Hi everyone,

Happy Saturday! This week I finally got the first piece of illustration art for the book. Up next is to sketch out the map for the map artist person. This week, I also had my last day with the private ESL school which was bittersweet. I'm excited for the next chapter of my career, but I'm going to miss some of my lovely students.

Here's the artwork below, so you can see some of the goodies that will be in the book. The artwork is from Iris's flashback scene when they are in the ruins of Gemstone Forest.

As for writing updates, I am chipping away at the final readthrough for "Amy's Rebellion." I also drafted some more words for "Snow's Captive." I believe I'm on chapter 14 now. Once "Amy's Rebellion releases, I'll switch gears to reverse outlining and editing the first 10 chapters.

In case you didn't see last week's newsletter, here's the final version of Chapter 1 for you.

Amy's Rebellion Chapter 1

Also, I have a non reading question for you.

Have you watched Bo Burnham's Inside yet?

I watched it about a week ago. I love the music, and it is an accurate representation of how it feels living in the pandemic times.

Have a great day and stay safe.

Sincerely,

Julia
