Lady Wynwood #7 early release Kickstarter

I worked on my first Kickstarter and it got approved! It’s for the Special Edition Hardcover of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 1: Archer and the release of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7: Spinster. I contacted my graphic designer about the Special Edition Hardcover of vol. 1: Archer—it’s going to be SO beautiful! The Kickstarter focuses on the Special Edition Hardcover, but it’ll also include vol. 7: Spinster so that it’ll sort of be like a launch day for vol. 7, too. A third special thing that’ll be in the Kickstarter is Special Edition Paperbacks of all the books in the series. They won’t be available in stores, just in the Kickstarter (and later, from my website, and also in my Patreon book box tiers if I decide to do them). The Kickstarter is not live yet, but you can follow it to be alerted when it has launched. (You may need to create a free Kickstarter account.) Follow Camy’s Kickstarter

I've never had to rely on God's grace more in my writing as when putting together those storylines. I mean, how do I know God's will, and what stories HE wants to tell through me? How can I be sure it's a true and Biblical message this storyline would convey? How to battle the insecurity that I'm not talented enough or even worthy enough to be His vessel and write His stories? I've never felt so weighted down with my own sin before, and had it undermine my love for writing. I had to bathe each hour in prayer in order to keep the words flowing. I started a fantasy short story to take my mind off of it. (I tried "pantsing" the story, but discovered that I'm too much of a "plotter" to do it--the prose is rambling aimles...
