Well, the main characters are pretty morally gray, so it’s really interesting to see how they got to that point and the trauma they went through that eventually shaped their goals and decisions.

I plan on hybrid publishing, which means doing a mix of both. This is what my writing instructors and mentors recommend. I’ve heard you can make more money this way and still get the best of both worlds. Hope this helps!
