《Meet the authors Showcase Edition #1 (Est. 2/17/2020)》A showcase with @KevinaOyatedor, author of Road Trip Girls

My friends and I planned to do a road trip in high school after we graduated. We never got the chance when we went our separate ways. I'm a fan of girl empowerment, I've seen a few stories on Wattpad about road trips, most were romantic. I wanted to make it more on friendship and having fun. Also, I love road trips!!
One of the things that I had trouble with was the youthful voice. I didn't experience what the girls did, so I didn't want the story to sound far fetched or unrealistic. I got stuck in the middle the first time drafting it. I couldn't connect with a few scenes. There were so many times I wanted to delete the story until I got the hang of it.

The dialogue. Especially Melanie's. Her quirky and quick-witted lines were easy.
So far, it's been positive. Readers love it from beginning, middle and end. They love Molly and Melanie's friendship when it comes to Molly dealing with heartbreak. Most have loved Molly's way of handling her breakup with Cole.
A standalone, however, I am working on a one-shot chapter of them traveling over the summer.
The lighthearted and fun friendship while the two girls are driving.
7?
Don't stay off track when it comes to writing scenes, stay offline for at least an hour.

Melanie had my smart-aleck dialogue, Molly is a bit like me when it comes to relationships.

I believe what the readers will be drawn of the friendship between the two girls and how they can understand each other.

Yes, I do, some I am working offline and some are on Wattpad that are works in progress.

The MC starts the story out drunk, which has a major impact on the story in the beginning and way beyond. The story takes time to unfold, please be patient.
