Sophia's POV I started writing in November. Not the autobiography. Not yet. First I wrote badly. This was something I hadn't anticipated. The assumption had been that a person who had spent twenty years building a company and a legal case and a family and a foundation would have, by simple accumulated experience, something to say and a competent way of saying it. What I discovered instead was that business language and legal language and the particular controlled register I'd developed across decades of high-stakes communication were not the same as the language required to put a true thing on a page.

It kept me afloat. Back in the day, I used to scribble stories in cool notebooks that I purchased from the school’s bookstore. I remember vividly the time one of my teachers confiscated one of my many notebooks with unfinished scripts because I was focused on writing instead of listening to the daily lesson. She returned the notebook and may have said that I may have some potential. Fast forward to recently, when I finally decided to create a story based on what May or May not have happened in my life. I never thought that I would actually be able to get this novel out.

"And work? How's the transition to remote consulting?" "Good. The work itself is engaging. My manager is supportive." I pause. "And I've started writing." Her eyebrows lift. "Writing?" "A novel. Fiction, but autobiographical. About a woman going through a divorce, then being targeted because of her ex-husband's enemies." "Tell me more about that." I explained the project. The scenes I've written. The emotions that pour onto the page. The crying and the catharsis. Dr. Katherine listens without interrupting, her expression thoughtful.

Hyun asked. "Well, for this book, I have to say that it's really business driven. They wanted me to come up with another book very quickly. I figured that the best way to do that was to get inspirations from different people's experiences and work on whatever I got from them. A little twist on this, some exaggeration on that. That's how I did the story. But of course, every adjustment had to make sense and that's were the harder part came," Cela explained. "So you mean, this novel is purely fictional?" he asked.

There was no way I could succeed without a strong plan and a strong back up plan, and a backup backup plan I had spent the last few days planning. I knew what I had to With each word I write, a new persona takes shape. I decided to call myself "Nora," a rogue werewolf who has been wandering alone for years, searching for a place to belong. My new story includes the tragic loss of my parents in a fire, forcing me to fend for myself and learning to survive in the wild. After writing, I started reading it out, practicing the sadness and pain in my voice as I retell Nora's story, ensuring that the emotions seem genuine.

There were so many books I had never read and I was always finding little gems just by going into the aisle without a plan or an idea of what I was looking for. I found a secluded corner, away from the nosy eyes of other students. I powered up my laptop and started working on the final edits of my novel. The words flowed effortlessly, the story almost writing itself. This was total only possible because of how…eventful my life had been over the semester. All sorts of dramatic ideas that I could throw my characters into popped into my mind. I was at least happy that I could use the real-life drama in my fiction. I completely lost track of time because I was so immersed in my world of romance

This has been a story that has been five years in the making. This went from a five page 2000 word document that I wrote with the help of a few friends the a well over 40,000 word novel. At this point, I don't have anymore of the story written out. This is due to a career change that takes up most of my time. I hope to continue writing this story and I'm even thinking of a possible sequel, however the process will be much slower than planned.

I had stayed up all night to write the last chapter and we were in the early hours of the next day already. My eyes were heavy and I was tired but still felt giddy about it. I, the naive rebel from small-town Oakley, had written a novel. "What is the title?" "I do not know yet." It was hard arriving at a decision. I knew not whether to give it a romantic one or a realistic one. "But I would like to make it a real book, like those that you read. I know it doesn't focus on ideas or theories or research but it is really a significant book. I would like you to help me."

She told me that there will be a design competition in two months and she is preparing for it. Tired. Her attitude was very relaxed, as if Will was really an ordinary work partner of hers, rather than the ex- girlfriend I heard, dared to take home, and made trouble in the house. People will always be emotionally affected by things around them. Just like yesterday, I started a narrative novel with a sad theme. When I finished reading it at night, my whole body was exuding negative energy. It seems that I can find a little bit of my past in the heroine, but if I think about it carefully, I can see how we are similar.
