Ended up cutting about 1600 words in total. My first 10k words has become my first 3 chapters and I added chapter 4 into the first 10k lol

Had a massive panic last night when I was organising my query files for Steven's Important Songs and thought I'd deleted the full manuscript 😭 luckily it was just the query chapters (pre-edit) I'd deleted

I officially finished the chapters and therefore the first draft of Sunflowers! But I'm going to properly re-edit the first 10k words of Steven's Important Songs so I can get into another go of querying it before I get into editing Sunflowers 🌻

The poetry collection I've been slowly adding to since last year finally has a title (it only took 11 months lol)

I've been writing a few chapters for Sunflowers from another character's POV and I've accidentally just made a side character I'm already in love with lol

I don't know whether I need to re-edit (again) the first 10k words of Steven's Important Songs because I've been hit with the thought that while I have re-edited the opening, I feel it might be too similar to what I've queried already

Be honest, who else has cried over a character they made up? 🙋

So, I DNF'd a book recently for the first time in about 6 years and felt the need to write about the guilt it has caused me: BLOG: matthewreadsiguess.blogspot.com/2025/09/i-dnfd… MEDIUM: medium.com/@matthewreadsi…

I've started editing Sunflowers! For now it's just cleaning up a few bits I left for myself to write later. And then I think I'm probably going to wait a couple more months before I try querying Steven's Important Songs again :)

I've started re-editing the first 10k words and it's funny how letting something sit for like 4/5 months can let you see stuff you never saw before lol. It's almost like people tell you to let things sit before returning to them
