The Daily Whatever, July 29: Lawrence’s Latest Novel Chapter
An introduction to Jackie from Light Shines Through
Of the many joys I’ve found here on Substack (seriously, don’t laugh!) one of the most surprising to me is the elation I feel when reading excerpts of my novel out loud for the chat on our Lives.
I had no idea how rewarding that would feel, but here I am, awash in the post-orgasmic glow of yet another successful read, and ladies and germs, let me tell you, it rivals sex.
Today, I read from chapter 3 of Light Shines Through, my queer dystopian sci-fi novel that I’m serializing over on Lawrence Winnerman | SCIENCE FICTION. In this chapter, we meet Jackie Anne Lennox and her best friend, Shan, as they reconnoiter for a girls’ night while Jackie deals with a breakup.
