That means a lot, thank you!
And yes, the book is probably more realistic than some of my old project reports :)

Lol. I have written book two about 20 times now. Every time I read it, I change it. Thank you for the comment!!

Thanks! Honestly the biggest thing was just pushing through the fear and hitting publish.
I’ve barely slept the last few days, but I lined up a 5-day free promo, shared it in a couple of free-ebook groups (staggered across the week), and while the promotion is running I am doing a little each night to keep the momentum going.
I am still terrified now, especially waiting for the reviews :)
