I can see why you don’t want to push the publication date out. I’ve been working on my story for three years and feel enough is enough. It’s always on the back of my mind, and it needs to be done and sent into the wild as well. Happy birthday and happy launching of chapter 1 into the universe, followed by all the other ones after that.
