It’s time to catch everyone up on what we’ve been doing for the past month. Kait and CJ provide updates on their writing projects. CJ shares that she is starting to revise her book Ghost Children and plans to sequester herself to focus on the revisions. Kait discusses her struggles with medical issues and the side effects of medication, which have affected her motivation and creativity. Despite these challenges, she remains active on social media and finds solace in the online writing community. In this conversation, Kait and CJ discuss their frustrations with the publishing industry and the pressure to be successful writers. They explore the idea of delusion and self-confidence to survive rejection. Kait contemplates focusing more on storytelling and plot rather than obsessing over writing quality.
