What is this?

So now what? How is this supposed to work?

First day when we started, we were working for 10 hours straight. 🕙 Didn't even notice. Now, we would be the first one to mock someone who says something like this, but it's true. We wouldn't believe it if it didn't happen to us. Everything was working exactly like it should. We can't describe that feeling, but it's like you are sure with every part of your being that this is something big, and that you are exactly where you need to be and you are doing exactly what you need to be doing. 😃

We wrote down a story for all five books. 📚 The idea is this. Five girls are meeting in front of their high school 10 years after they finish. Each of them went to another city for college, each of them is doing a different job, and each of them is having one problem that is common for young people in Croatia. Now they are in the pub across the school, they haven't seen each other for 10 years and they have a lot of catching up to do. Each book is a story one of them. 🍺

So the task for the first day was to come up with topics for each book, to come up with names and with some kind of titles. We got topics and we said that the names of everyone in the book will be chosen by opening a phone book, except the main five girls. ☎️ Since we have some idea how we would name our kids we went with that, but how to decide which one is a character in what book? We googled it. The meaning of the names fit perfectly with the topic! So, that was done.

We needed a date when our characters would meet. Why don't we use the date we agreed we are writing this together? Great, let us check. Yep, it fits. Our girls arranged their meet up on one of their girls night out. And 10th of October 2008. it was Friday! Great, done!

Now we needed titles. We wanted to create something that will make sense when you put all five books together but they needed to make sense each one by themselves. Well, easier said than done.😞 Just imagine, at this point we are in our 10th hour and we don't have much energy for this so we agreed to write anything, we can easily rewrite it later. Right? So we wrote words with five letters and tried to come up with one word for each letter. It all fit perfectly! PERFECTLY! 🤩

Next hour was just jumping and screaming. 🥳 We can't describe that, so we are not even going to try, because I believe we have some kind of character limit here. In any case we hope everyone gets that feeling, at least once in a lifetime!
