After reading books like The hate you give, Dear Martin, Moxie, Love from A to Z, Everything Everything, When dimple met Rishi, odd one out, we are ants and soo many others; I began to view the world differently. These are books that emphasize on either police brutalism, racism/discrimination, cultural appropriation, uniqueness, feminism, sexism, Desire and even alien abductions. One of the main questions in we are the ants is "if you knew the world was going to end but you had the power to stop it, would you?". The world isn't perfect, people aren't perfect but I believe in second chances, I believe that there are still some good seeds left out there and I want to believe that the world could get better. This book is about me exploring the world, reading deeper meanings into the things/ people around me and of course observing. Everything in this book is my very personal opinion/story. I guess you could say that the inspiration for my book  is "Love from A to Z" by ms. S.K Ali; the marvels of existence and oddities of creation. The amazing Ms. S.K. Ali once said "maybe that's what living is - recognizing the marvels and oddities around you".

There is an unexpected turn in the story that drastically changes the course of events and, in the long run, even the lives of those involved. Magpie, the first to be involved, suddenly finds himself in the world so unlike his own. Will he find his place there or will he be at least able to go back home? He seems to find his way back from this new world of giga-dimensions but something unwanted happens, and things go worse. The cultural differences, together with a challenging personality traits of another involved in the events, suck Magpie and his friends into a downward spiral. The story challenges you to see the world differently from the perspective you are perhaps too used to and narrowed by. Life can be an adventure if you don't narrow it with a bigotry that forces you to be rooted in your trenches and behind your dividing walls. This doesn't mean you have to accept others' views without standing your ground. However, to be able to share our lives in this one and only world we need to make compromises, on both sides. Are you the first brave one to set this positive trend in motion? So read on and let the foundation of the story be laid. From the end of episode 1 on, the story really picks up, finally reaching its climax at the end of episode 3 with quite a surprising finish. Your participation in solving this shared challenge of coexistence and cooperation is highly appreciated. Remember those who cooperate make more progress than those who don't! The ideal audience for my first book is actually between 12 and 16, but anybody older and interested in adventures, cultures and in getting more understanding into our multifaceted world is sure to enjoy the story. (The whole story has now been published, the only thing I'll still add is the final epilogue but the story is already available in its entirety.)

Some of us aren't that lucky. Some of us don't have physical freedom, emotional freedom or even spiritual freedom. We are imprisoned by forces around us and forced to do things that we don't want to do but who are we to complain, right? It's the norm of the society." Cover photo by @jane_lausten

Pieces of My Universe Written in Multiple Perspectives · Set in the 1990s We were wild. We were lost. We were family. And none of us came out of it the same. In the vibrant chaos of the 1990s - a time lit with music, rebellion, and raw truth - Calvin, Hannah, Nina, and their crew of kindred souls form an unbreakable, found family. Each one carries shadows, secrets, and stories they don't fully understand yet. As they navigate the fire of first loves, heartbreaks, and cosmic questions, their bonds deepen - revealing profound truths about connection, identity, and the mysteries that tie us all together. Told through multiple perspectives ("God Mode"), this story lets you feel each character's inner world - the thoughts, feelings, and soul layers often left unspoken. With over 89 episodes written and a full book near completion, Pieces of My Universe is more than just a coming-of-age story. It's a lived memory. A healing scroll. And a wild ride of remembrance. I'm currently editing and rewriting for self-publishing - with lots of creative magic in store for the rollout :) Enjoy the experience. 🤗
