Nicely done! I can't wait to follow along with Elsie and Jack. What an adventure! But also... I need to find out more about this Gundula. haha. Looking forward to reading more. :-)

Thank you so much Helena. I’m so glad that Elsie, and Jack, resonate. This is a scene from the first draft which I’m still working on. Gundula is Elsie’s nemesis at work and Jack really is a stunner! But I’m miles off finishing it, so a lot might still change. It’s nice to have you back 😊

Thank you Ana, I am so relieved it resonates. First time a part of my novel had an outing 😅

That takes guts! It's really good. I'd love to see where this story goes.

I have roughly planned it out, but I’m only at the beginning of Act 2 in my first draft and Elsie, Jack and Meredith might still surprise me, who knows. Plus there is the past timeline in the 1950s which might throw things a bit. We’ll see. But thank you so much for reading and sharing your thoughts. It means everything 🤗❤️

Yay, thank you Ally!! This makes my day. I was a bit nervous about posting something from my actual novel. There is LOTS of adventure ahead for Elsie. This is only the beginning… I’m glad you like it 😅
