Day 3: Book Playlist for A Guide To Living With Dragons This is a mix of what my book is like/what I listened to while writing and editing it. #revpit #cozyfantasy #romanticfantasy

If a scene feels particularly slow, or meandering, or like nothing is happening, it might be because your protagonist should have a goal they are trying to achieve.
