A Note to My Readers
          
          When I first started writing Connection, Unmediated: Two People Who Anchor Each Other in Time, I didn't know where it would take me - or where you would take it.
          
          Today, I'm humbled and honestly a bit stunned to share that this story has found its place among the top 1% of dystopian stories on Wattpad (ranked 345 out of 55,800), the top 1% of time travel stories (356 out of 44,500), and the top 1% of magical realism stories (67 out of 7,010).
          
          These numbers aren't just statistics to me. They represent every single one of you who took a chance on this story. Every read, every vote, every comment that made me laugh or think or realize I needed to dig deeper into a character's motivation. You've anchored this story in a way I never expected.
          
          Writing about two people who anchor each other across time has been an exploration of connection itself - what it means, how it survives, why it matters. That you've connected with it, that you've made space for it in your reading lives, means everything to me.

Thank you for voting on In This Dark Alone. I'll check out your Wuthering Heights tale too!

Competition Entry: Wattpad - #WutheringHeightsRetelling The Keeping.
          
          In anticipation of the upcoming Warner Bros. Pictures film starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, this story brings a fresh twist to Brontë's iconic tale of consuming love and its cost across generations.
          
          In a hollow older than memory, where fever trees twist toward lovers and mist takes the shape of longing, the women of Nomathemba's line have kept what others let go.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE! MAY 2026 BE FULFILLING. Thanks to everyone who read, commented on, added reads to lists and followed me during the last year. I was less active than usual. Hope to write a bit more this year. Thank you all!!! BEST WISHES!✨
