"Unfortunately writing, like life, isn't easy. There's a reason even the happiest of romances has an 'oh no' moment: life is full of 'oh no' moments. And if we can find our way through the darkness in the safe space of Story, it helps us build a map for how (or how not) to find the light in real life too. So, as you sit down to read this collection of made-up scenarios and unfamiliar worlds and characters, remember that Story is lending you its superpowers. Lean into the power, enjoy yourself, and then go use your power for good... including a helpful nudge to your friendly neighborhood creative." - From the Foreword by Janyre Tromp
