Snippets | August 2019

August was off to a slowish start, but by the middle of the month, things were going much better! I’ve been working with several key moments in the latter part of TAD2, so there are many spoilers around, but here are a few of my favorite snippets from this month.
    “Sometimes we make the unwise decisions because they feel like the best one we can make in the moment.”

    “None of it matters.”
    “If it didn’t matter, you wouldn’t be standing here looking like you’ve been dragged through a fight.”
    He stepped back from her.
    None of it should have mattered, yet he still felt unsteadied.
