I feel ______ about my story: I feel really confident and excited about my story!
Snippet:

“And as of Monday, I’m going to be Deputy Director.” He put the glass down and smiled. “And we’ve got a long weekend ahead of us.”

“We?” Melinda’s eyebrow shot up.

“Yeah, we. As in we are apparently not as good as we thought we were.” Nick sat back and waited as the waiter poured their champagne and took their food orders. “Apparently when you’re running the show, there are loopholes to fraternization codes.”

Both sets of eyebrows shot up that time. Phil spoke slowly when he opened his mouth again. “Did you bring that up or…”

“She knew.” Melinda shook her head like it was an eventuality. Of course Director Carter knew.

I feel ___ about my story: hopeful and nervous (that I won't give it the time that it requires).
Snippet: "A sudden lurch and the box finally stops; he knocks his head against the metal grates, a gash flattening his blonde hair with blood; his fingers come away sticky, but there’s not much pain to speak of. The top of the shaft opens to let in a sheet of bright sunlight. There, eyes of different shades - faces of multiple shapes, skin tones and various ages - peer in at him in excitement."

I feel ______ about my story: I feel impressed that I actually have started this before the night it's due. I also feel I need to wrangle the plot a little because, at the moment, the action-adventure part is a lot more forefront than the poly part, but it'll get there!
Snippet:

Sam didn’t say a word when they walked into the kitchen together thirty minutes later, both of them dressed, but Steve didn’t miss the look in his eyes that he gave to Natasha. She didn’t react, just sat down at the table and smiled.

“You’re back,” Sam said.

“I don’t like making my own breakfast.”

“I think you just missed us.”

“I don’t ever miss anyone.”

“If you say so.”
