I know it's been almost two months since Just Like You, Just Like Me was updated and I feel so bad about it. It's not that I haven't been working on the story - I have - I'm just struggling with it.
I've started writing quite a few stories in the past but something I really struggle with is dialogue. I have a hard time making different characters sound different. I have very specific ideas for how I want their personalities to be - but I struggle with actually conveying that in my writing.
So I'm currently trying to rework this series a little bit without having to completely start it over because I love these characters and I want to do a good job telling their story. But I'm really having a hard time with it. In the meantime, I've actually been working on other stories to somewhat "practice" dialogue and making a character's personality shine through without being obnoxious.
I'm currently working on one that just started as practice and has turned into something I genuinely love - and I'm probably going to be posting it to Tapas soon.
I'm really thankful for the 20+ subscribers I have for this story and the people who have said kind words and liked the chapters. This story has definitely not been forgotten, but it's needing a little extra love before I can continue posting it.
Thank you for hanging in there with me as I try to improve as a writer!
Saylia Le Rouge was the vampire princess of the Red Kingdom. After an attempt on her life, her father declared that she was in need of a knight. Nikole, or "Nik" as many called her, was only human but was the most distinguished knight in the Red Kingdom. Nik was assigned to protect Princess Saylia until her arranged marriage in just three months. But neither Saylia or Nik expected the feelings that would blossom during their time together. Will their love prevail or will Saylia be forced into a marriage she doesn't want?
