In the kingdom of Noctavelle, beauty hides cruelty.
Behind glittering chandeliers and royal celebrations lies a palace filled with secrets, betrayal, and people pretending to be something they are not. The nobles smile while plotting each other's downfall, and the royal family rules through fear wrapped in elegance.
At the center of the kingdom stands Seraphina Vale - the king's silent daughter, feared by the court and whispered about as The Hollow Queen. Cold, distant, and impossible to read, Seraphina has spent years trapped inside a life she never chose, hiding her loneliness behind perfect composure.
But everything changes the night a mysterious jester arrives at the palace.
Dressed in crimson and black, Lucien is unlike anyone the kingdom has ever seen. He speaks in riddles, wears a smile that feels dangerous, and somehow knows secrets no stranger should know. While the court sees him as entertainment, Seraphina quickly realizes something far more terrifying:
The jester did not come to perform.
He came for revenge.
As murders begin haunting the palace halls and rebellion brews beneath the kingdom, Seraphina finds herself drawn toward the one person she should fear most. Because beneath Lucien's games and cruelty lies a darkness that mirrors her own.
And in a kingdom where everyone wears masks, the most dangerous thing of all may be falling in love with someone who was born to destroy everything.
The Crimson Court is a haunting gothic romance filled with obsession, mystery, betrayal, and emotionally broken characters struggling to survive inside a beautiful nightmare.

Writing Tips And Tricks
WARNING: Some of these are harsh truths, so if you aren't a fan of those and instead want to stick to more positive tips, avoid the tips with the * symbol on the chapter, but don't worry, most of these are explained in a more positive light. This is a journal where I write about tips I've discovered myself, received by others, and found on the internet. I recommend reading through this journal especially if you are a writer with ADHD, because I am also a writer with ADHD so I've learned a lot about it.

The song of us
☆Winner in General fiction category for Ambassadors of African Awards☆ 1st October, Nigeria's Independence day. She turns 60. Instead of writing the usual Independence story about colonial rule and fight for freedom. I decided to do something different. This book contains four different chapters of different stories that gives a glimpse into the typical life of an average Nigerian. It's short, a little witty and averagely relatable. Non-Nigerians are welcome as well. Don't worry. It's a quick read.Complete
