The final editing of a story always takes longer than I expect. But the worst part of the process is to make decisions as to which scenes to deleted and which to keep. No wonder they call this process “killing your darlings”, eh? Because sometimes it feels like you have to remove a limb or something substantial that you really want to keep.

Nevertheless, I always love to read these deleted scenes when other authors are brave enough to publish them. I always think that they add a bit more context to the story, even if they don’t quite fit the storyline. So, I asked myself: maybe I’m not the only one who likes to read these scenes?

If so, you might want to check out the Premium versions I have (and will) published on my Payhip site. F.ex for Mating the Omega, I have included four deleted scenes. “Turning the Omega” will have six deleted scenes, while “Taming the Omega” will likely have the same (depending on how many I want to include).

And the best thing about looking through old files? I just found eight unfinished drafts in the Mooncrest pack series that I can’t remember having written. Wow!
