Hi, all. I know it’s been too long since I’ve posted an update, but a lot has been going on lately that’s been taking up much of my time. I had a baby! On May 16th, I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl via unplanned c section after about 17 hours of unsuccessful labor. It was a rough day, but we’re both doing well, her so much better than me. She’s the most adorable little thing I’ve ever seen and she is absolutely thriving. She also sleeps like 18 hours a day, so there’s still plenty of time for me to get some writing done in between naps and all the pumping I’ve been doing lol.

Stand is currently 230,000 words and I am just a two chapters away from finally finishing the first draft. After that, it’s the two epilogues, and then the first draft is done! I still can’t commit to a release date yet, but I’m getting so much closer to it. I’m really happy with how the book has progressed and I think you guys will really enjoy it. Plus, there’s so much more to read than ever before so I’ll honestly be shocked if anyone finishes it in a single setting lol.

So that’s where I’m at right now. I will try to keep you guys updated on here now that my pregnancy is finally over and I have a very sleepy newborn on my hands lol.

Thank you still for your support and incredible patience.

<3 Jay Marie
