Update: To Die For You If Need Be Chapter 10 Has Been Written

I've finished writing the latest chapter of To Die For You If Need Be and will start editing tomorrow at the earliest. All depends on how well I'm doing.

Here's a small unedited excerpt of what to look forward to:

Love Persevering: Wanda's Ruined Character Arc

The Disney+ show WandaVision followed Wanda Maximoff after the events of Avengers Endgame. After finding out she wouldn't be able to bury Vision due to him being a robot and so not afforded the rights of a human, even though he was an Avenger, she angrily stormed off and went to the town of Westview.

In the little town she allowed her grief to utterly consume her. She put the town in a hex so that it couldn't be accessed by the rest of the world, without great cost, and used everyone as her personal playthings. Wanda even made a replica of Vision who has independence unlike the rest of the town's citizens.

Over the course of the show Wanda came to accept that Vision is dead and what she was doing is wrong. So she frees the citizens of Westview and flies off to a remote area. That was a good end to her character arc and put her back on the path of a hero.

Then came Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness that seemed to undo Wanda's character arc just so she could be the villain of the movie.

Welcome to Alexander’s world. As the youngest polar bear cub in the royal family, everyone has certain expectations of him. But he’s not like everyone else. He struggles to fight and fish (the two most important skills every polar bear needs). He’s an easy target for the bullies. And his big brother Leo is brilliant at everything. It’s only when Alexander’s special abilities and markings single him out that he begins to come into his own.

Events unfold and he has to grow up quickly. The broken-hearted, brave polar bear has to leave behind all those he loves in order to save them. With his trusted pal, Cooper, by his side, the pair embark on a mission that will change their lives and scare them half to death. They have to flee from a vicious attack, save the kingdom, prevent Naomi from being forced into marriage with the enemy, find help, and, most importantly, survive.

Join Alexander and his magical pals as he takes on the biggest challenge of his life, learns who his real friends are, and becomes the bravest polar bear warrior the kingdom has ever seen. Filled with themes of love, loss, betrayal, friendship, family loyalty, persistence and bravery, this incredible book will capture the imagination of readers from 10 to 100.
