Here's what I know: Writing is lonely. Not in a dramatic, tortured-artist way—just in the practical sense that nobody sees the work until it's done. And by then, they only see the finished thing. They don't see the seventeen drafts. The scenes you loved that had to die. The months where nothing worked.
I'm building a thriller writing career in public. Not because I've figured it out—I haven't—but because I think the process matters as much as the product. Maybe more.
"The first draft is just you telling yourself the story."
If you're a writer, you're welcome here. Whether you're on your first novel or your fifth. Whether you write thrillers or something completely different. The craft principles are the same. The doubt is the same. The joy when something finally clicks—that's the same too.
