E. S. Elias, Author

I had a full update for you all but I stepped away from the desk for a moment and when I came back I refreshed the page like a dummy. Its a habit I have because I don't get new Wattpad notifications when I have the "My Works" page open.
          
          The gist of my update was to remind readers that TGwS Chapter 10 was posted. I've started Chapter 11 and it feels right. I would like to have the book marked "Complete" by the time the 20k #ONC2024 submission form is live.
          
          When THE GIRL WITH SCARS is done, I hope to commission cover art (already have prospects) and I plan to have it printed in paperback for my shelf. I might have to have it shipped to my cousin's house since that's where I will be by the time the POD platform approves and ships the copy.
          
          Anyway, that's the update. See you later!

Chapter 10 is live! Enjoy!
          
          It might seem a little rushed but the next chapter does steady the pace again.

20,000 words reached!! xD Chapter 10 will be posted later today, just making sure it ends properly... It is not over yet. I think I need one more chapter, and maybe an epilogue. *screams*

Happy Monday!
          
          500 words away from reaching 20,000! Chapter 10 is 50% written. Hoping to write as much as I can this afternoon (I finished my social media management work this morning, but I have errands later, and get the chapter posted for all of you. ♥

THE GIRL WITH SCARS has reached 600 reads! Thank you!
          
          Chapter 10 is moving along. When it is finished, it will bring the story beyond 20k! I had some stuff pop up today so I wasn't at home to write. I've given myself until Tuesday to get this chapter finished!

700 words... that's all I need to reach 20k. And as previously realized, I don't know if the story will be finished within that word count. My goal is to have a completed story before the April 30th deadline. Okay, going back to the cave.

My current word count is a palindrome! xD

Oh my goodness you amazing peoples! ... So, THE GIRL WITH SCARS, Chapter 10 is going to take a turn. Like... its a turn. That's all I will say. I'm actually shocked because I had a plan and this came out of nowhere.

Happy Saturday! A few things to share this morning!

          2) Luciana DeLuca has 100 reads!
          
          3) Alluring Starlight has 100 reads!
