In January 2019, I went on a cruise. I had never been on one, and it was a gratifying experience for me. Never would I ever be able to describe the feeling I felt sitting by the window, watching the ocean underneath me. Though there were people around me, it was quiet and serene.
Still a newb to Wattpad, and since my companion on the cruise was a little under the weather, I got the wifi package and did some work while I was "relaxing" (in case you don't know, I've never heard of that word). I was writing Awaken at the time, and I knew it was coming to an end, so I started thinking of other ideas for new books. I wrote lots down, but the one I had of a promiscuous billionaire who didn't want to commit (didn't not never) was what stuck out the most. Cliche, I know, but I love it.
So I made notes and figured I could start on it once I got back home, and that's what I did.
Like water, the first ten chapters flowed from me like I couldn't believe it. I shocked myself how much the book was coming to life and two how much my writing seemed to have grown over the few months of being on Wattpad. I would read over the chapters, and my heart would pound. The tone of this book was different from anything I'd ever written, and it scared me. So much that I was was afraid to write because I didn't think I could keep up. So I started slowing down the updates, and I eventually unpublished out of fear. Besides, I had the Awaken series, But You're Cupid and Oblivious taking up my time.
Later that summer, my best friend told me that she missed the book and because I love her, I republished it. I tried hard to overcome my book's intimidation, but I failed, and I unpublished again.
I know, I'm such a pansy.
Autumn came, and a really sweet friend of mine told me how much she missed the book and was very sad when I unpublished it. At that time, I had just wrapped up Lucifer and was completing Uncharted. I thought about it, and I said, "you know what, publish it Cupid, and I dare you to finish it."
I did.
November 22, 2019, I republished, and I couldn't even begin to describe the feeling I had afterward. I received so many thank yous and kind words about how much you enjoyed this story and how sad you were when I unpublished. It shook my heart to hear this. It was clear to me then I had to complete this, not for me but you.
So I did.
November 20, 2020, one year later, and the book is completed. Though I struggled many times, plus unpredictable events that occurred that held me back, I succeeded and gave the characters what they deserved, for their story to be told.
I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for the votes, comments, and patience with me. I hope you understand that when you vote, you show the writer how much you appreciate their work and make it possible for others to also. So please, don't just comment but vote for what you enjoy. It's much appreciated. Silent readers, you can vote and still be silent. Regardless, I appreciate and love you all very much.
If this is your first time reading my work, welcome to Cupid's Corner and I hope you stay awhile longer. My profile is filled with work of the man I tend to write a lot about, plus six other equally amazing men. Feel free to get lost into another world with them.
For my loyals, I feel as if I don't thank you enough. I wish there was something else I could do for you. Can I bake you a cake? Some cookies? Take you to a BTS concert with me whenever we have the luxury of that again? Something? Anything? I love you all and I hope you continue to stick with me.
Please love yourself, take care of yourself, be kind others and stay healthy.
I love you! ❤️
