I Have A Confession...

You: Wow, Shawna it's been a while

Me: Yeah, I kind of have writer's block and lost my way and just can't finish a chapter--

You, shoving breadsticks into your purse: No chapters ? Okay, well sorry, but I gotta go--

Me: I mean I'm struggling with  chapter 14 &15 and we're only on chapter 9

You, slowly putting breadsticks back in basket: Um...Is there a new chapter today ?

Me: Of course there is !

You: So, how many chapters is in this thing anyway ? And why are you creating new playlists on your Spotify ? And how has Lile done basically two serials in the time it takes you to do one ?

Me, shoving cheddar bay biscuits into my purse: Sorry, I gotta go--

You: Wait, did you bring cheddar bay biscuits to an Olive Garden ?

*Me, shoving breadsticks into purse too and fleeing into the night*




CHAPTER 8
I had kind of mentioned that parts of Chapter 8 were from OHG and I was going to post some pieces of it, but it's actually not that interesting. This next chapter also has some parts from OHG, and I think those would be more interesting to post.

I think in the comments a lot of you were speculating about the health of Juliana and Rhett's relationship and I just wanted to clear a couple of things up.

1. Juliana is mentally ill and has been since UL2 and Rhett knows this so he is a little more protective of her, but more importantly....

2. Spoiler Alert: Rhett Clark is an asshole.  I noticed this while re-reading all of Rhett's POV in UL and UL2. Rhett was never really romantic lead material in the UL-verse, I think some of that romanticism of him may have just been from comments or something.  He cares about Juliana and isn't like MRA level of asshole, but he's...learning. Which is why he does things like get in a fight with his best friend. We will defintely explore some of this.

CHAPTER 9
Rhett secretly meets with Raleigh Cameron to see why Juliana didn't get any money from the UL settlement. He discovers Mr. Reese got 6,000 in settlement and  500,000 from selling his land, but never gave any to Juliana.

Juliana's Dad still refuses to visit or accept her marriage and she hasn't seen him in 6 months. She also hasn't told him she's pregnant. Now, she's headed to Hartford for a few days to repair their relationship and hopefully understand why her Dad has been hiding money from her.
