    You might already know this, but you can set up Microsoft Word to autosave earlier drafts of your writing session! It's not perfect, but it's saved me a few times! It can be super helpful in those copy and paste situations. Congrats on finishing!

    CONGRATULATIONS!!! I had to stop ironing to appreciate your moment of TRIUMPH. Well done! You have put in a tremendous effort, and taken each day as it comes. A well-deserved victory, and hugely inspirational to me. (I was literally watching and saying, "I can do that if I try harder!"). To complete this book on top of maintaining a RUclips channel and work takes a lot of discipline. What a great result! Looking forward to the next stage of your writing journey. :)

      If you enjoyed the rest of the A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J Maas, I think you'd like this one! (Just a fair warning that it is the first adult book in the series and she really leans into that)
