The first review. The first *glowing* review! Sarah clutched the laptop to her chest, her heart hammering against her ribs like a trapped bird. The reviewer, a respected critic, had lavished praise on her debut novel, comparing her to… her favorite author, Elias Thorne! The comparison ignited a fire within her.

She felt a bubbling joy in her stomach. She laughed, a short, sharp bark of pure excitement. She paced, unable to stay still, the words of the review replaying in her mind. “A breathtaking talent… a voice that will resonate for generations…” She wanted to shout from the rooftops. She was, quite literally, buzzing.
