Authors note
What if I Like You Like You was one of the first stories I published on Inkitt.
Like all my other stories, it is a first draft. Over the past few years, I have written, rewritten, and improved, hopefully. I still post my first drafts and periodically edit them long after publication, but for some reason, I kept coming back to this particular story. I love it, and, as the positive reviews indicate, my readers do too.
However, I’m not entirely happy with it. It is a short story with 19 chapters that deserves some love and attention, in my opinion. So, I started editing it. I will leave the original version on Inkitt, too.
This version is written in the first person and present tense, but the stronger ( and maybe better) version will also be available soon. This new draft is written in the third person and past tense.
I’ve learned that I enjoy writing this way much more because it allows me to show my characters’ emotions in more detail than the first-person POV does. I hope you give this alternative version a chance as well. I can’t wait to hear your thoughts and opinions on it!
You don’t have to read the first draft to enjoy this one. Dive in and enjoy the roller coaster ride of Jamie and Louis! Thank you all for your ongoing support and for all the love you have given my books!
This has a strong opening. Have you had anyone beta read it yet?
this is amazing ❤️
Having looked through your list of available stories, this looks like the version I should be reading of this one. 🙂
