V. E. Schwab Instagram – It’s easy to go a little mad in the days before a book comes out. When you’ve done the work—years of dreaming, planning, drafting, polishing—and now all that’s left to do is wait and hope. But the beauty of writing is that there are always new stories waiting to be told. So, as the Threads of Power clock ticks down from five days to four, I’m doing my best to breathe, but also dream, and plot, and write, and let myself wander through the fields of what comes next. Because that’s where the joy lives. That’s where the meaning is. That’s the reason I come back again and again. Because I love telling stories. I can’t wait to share this one with you. And the next. And the next. Pictured here: eye bags courtesy of jet lag. #veschwab
