Every fiction story written is contrived, as in occurring deliberately instead of spontaneously or naturally.

What world domination looks like
I couldn't leave it alone.
Let's be real.
I haven't brushed my hair in two days. I'm in boxers and a tank top. I'm on my second load of laundry. My feline love, Simba, isn't talking to me since I took him to the vet yesterday. The dishes need to be unloaded from the dishwasher. Kitchen needs to be cleaned. Rug needs to be vacuumed. Need to take out the trash. I haven't had lunch yet. No idea what that's going to be.
lmao π
TA-DA!
I always make the kitchen wait until after two when I'm mostly finished writing for the day.
Still...laughing...
Dreams
I've always been a dreamer. I dream big. I love big. Like...I am the WHOLE DAMN ENCHILADA. π₯³
Happens to be a lot for some people. And I DO try to gauge my audience. But I'll be your hype chick. I will whoop and holler and rise up for your success. Because that's what we should do for each other.
I've been my own cheerleader for a bit. My own hype chick. Giving myself high-fives and doing dances in my office chair.
Because...dreams.
I wanted to write. I wanted to be a published author. I wanted readers to enjoy my books. I wanted readers from all over the world.
I've accomplished all of the above. What's next?
World domination! π slightly kidding...
Movie based on one of my books. USA Today bestselling novel. NYT bestselling novel. More conferences and book events to connect with fans--around the world. So many dreams to still work on and someday realize. I want name recognition. I want readers to chat with each other and ask, "Did you read this book by Crystal Inman?" Then they chat away.
But, for now, I'll work on Canary: Dark Descent.
I'll eyeball my box of books. π
And I'll continue those world domination plans. π
Always writing*
