NaNoWriMo 2016 was a big month for me because in 2015 I tried to write during the challenge, but during the second week I was forced to stop. Life was happening and memories of those events still trigger a lack of motivation and inspiration during November challenges.
However, I was somehow able to push through for this story. I didn't finish within the 30-day mark, but I marked the book complete a few days later. And while this is not my most popular book on Wattpad/Inkitt, I still receive comments on Aldrich's voice.
I remember being approached by an editor from a small-house publisher and she wanted me to submit to them. I can't remember if I submitted a partial or a full, but I never heard back from them. It's one of the reasons I stopped submitting queries.
FUN FACT: PIECES OF ME was chosen by the @WattNaNo profile as their top romance pick in 2018. The review and feature is no longer on the profile, but I still have the original link (it doesn't work) saved and a sicker I made for myself.
