Breaking news from She Lit a Fire:
I received the most fantastic feedback from a non-fandom friend of mine about the most recent chapter: CHAPTER 28. I did a complete overhaul of the dialogue in the first argument between Billa and Thorin and i let it build all the way up to a Thorin crash out instead of leaving it split in the middle like it currently is.
I cant believe I nearly forgot Thorin is such a big dramatic wretch. Love him.
Anyway im updating the chapter tonight. I dont normally do this much change after posting but i feel strongly that the second version is how it should exist in the posted work. The dialogue is essentially the same, the result is unchanged but the argument itself has better flow, better build, it makes more sense, there's 37% more angst and the revelation at the end is 10000x more satisfying.
Thank you for your time ❤️
