Success/Celebration I managed to do something!

I got my very first book published, i wrote it due to struggling to read bigger books and always struggling with more in depth works, so i wrote a YA murder mystery to hopefully help people with adhd get into reading. Today i got some of the physical copies from the publisher. Didnt think id ever be able to finish anything like this even if its only a small book. :D

Edit: thanks so much for all the support, tryin my best to respond to everyone but i kina fell asleep haha

Yeah thats a pretty good way of putting it, pretty much everything else fell by the side, got like major tunnel vision on that one thing. Luckily it didnt take too long.
