A message from your future self...
... and the message is: be a bit more patient
Dear writer,
Your future self, basking in the sweet rewards of publication, is watching you with a blend of pride and gentle caution. Like the summer berries on the vine, your story is ripening. There's a natural progression to your craft, a sweetening that occurs with time and care.
I know the urge to rush, to share your world with the world as soon as possible. But premature picking can compromise the flavor, the essence of your story. Your future self urges patience. Allow your work to mature, to develop its full potential.
Trust the process. Enjoy the process. Nurture your story, and it will reward you with a harvest of rich, satisfying reader experiences.
Until next time,
The Book Druid
