When fate plays its hand (Miranda)

Chapter 0130

“Why would you say that I can’t write? Don’t you know how big of a humiliation that sentence is to an author?

“Yes, fine, you’re the editor, and I should trust your instincts and your eye for the market trends and whatnot. But those themes and topics aren’t my cup of tea. It’s too big of a change from my usual genre. I can’t do it even if I tried!

“I think we both need some time to cool down. Alright, I’m hanging up. I’ve got other things to do.”

Mindy hung up. She then turned and was met with Mirnda’s inquisitive eyes. She smiled and said, “It’s nothing. Just my editor from the publisher’s.”

“Are you sure it’s really nothing?”

“Why would I lie to you?” Mindy asked in amusement while pu g Miranda into a hug. “The publishing industry hasn’t been doing well lately. Many popular authors have switched to publishing web novels now, and they’re earning pots of gold from it.

“Of course, there were also a handful of them who failed and disappeared off the face of the earth. My editor wants me to switch like them and write web novels instead. But I haven’t been able to make up my mind about it yet, so I’m still on the fence.”

“Web novels?” Miranda repeated in surprise. “What kind of web novels?”

Mindy smiled awkwardly. “Urban romance.”
