What's up Wednesday: Projects!

Hello readers,


What I'm Writing:

Like I said last week, I have a new idea for a story. I'm writing it but I'm so much slower than I usually am. I don't like the thought that keeps coming back saying the idea isn't good enough. But I know it is a good idea.

I'm currently at 6.6k. My goal is to try for 14k by next week.

What Else:

Since HER OLIVES will be one in less than a month, on Feb 13th, I'm doing a little fun project for it. And I need your help. My message on tumblr:

"My book, HER OLIVES, reaches its 1st year of publication in a month. I would like to do something special. I want to put together a collage of you guys reading HER OLIVES. Can you do that and tag it with #FidasOlives? Thank you!"

If you don't have a copy yet you can buy here.

Love, Fida
