## Resource

It's the month of April, so it is very fitting that we are working with one of our lovely YouTube members, April Blake, who is a music business operations manager by day, and a fanfic writer and soon-to-be novelist by night. April, who found early success after posting her Loki fanfic on AO3, is now doubling down on her growing YouTube channel, where she is guiding other aspiring writers to do the same. In this session, we discuss 9-5 life, molding yourself to fit expectations, finding freedom, the creative process, and April's love of morally grey characters. :) Read April's work, all 55 chapters of Freedom and Forgiveness, here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/43366444/chapters/109013307 Follow April on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/@UCvM6BT7XUxfsoE-lnA_DrmQ
