#WritersCoffeeClub Mar. 25: What do you feel when a loved one reads your work?
A: My girlfriend is my editor. And she is very honest. So, excited, but sometimes a little scared.
She has #LongCovid, so I was anxious about the story I wrote around that. It's written from the POV of the caregiver. So I was saying things about the caregiving experience I maybe hadn't said before. I was also representing the chronically ill character.
I sat with my finger on the send button for a day.
