Happy 10 year anniversary to Converting the Bad Boy! Never in my wildest dreams did 16 year old me imagine it getting so much love and support the way it has over the past ten years, and I truly appreciate how much that story has changed so many lives, including my own!
Since I was only 16 when I wrote CTBB, there are many things I wish I could change about the story, which is why I am currently in the process of rewriting and editing it. I want to polish it up in a way that will do it justice, while still keeping the main events and plot points intact. Please bear with me during this editing process as I will keep the story on Wattpad but there will be lots of changes throughout, especially in the beginning of the story. I am grateful to you all who read it in its original, unpolished format and still loved it, but I am not 100% proud of it yet.
I do have a few ideas on expanding the story, including a bonus chapter set during the 2020 lockdown, and I plan to cut out a few unnecessary details. I'm still workshopping the logistics, but I'll keep you updated once I'm done.
I am also still working on Prisoners of Paradise, which features a few CTBB characters, and In Sha Allah I would like to finish that story too (I know it's been 9 years, but better late than never!) I would highly recommend checking it out as I have put a lot of effort into making sure it's at a quality I am proud of, and a quality that can be enjoyed by everyone
Anyway, I just wanted to let you guys know that I am still here, just ten years older and wiser (with a fully developed frontal lobe this time!) Reading all your comments on CTBB genuinely made me laugh so hard and reminded me of why I love to write - to make people feel something and to inspire you all in some way
So thank you for inspiring me to write once again, and I hope you are all having a fruitful, blessed year
Yours sincerely,
Aishabella
