Hi all, it was time for me to update this bio/about section.
I started this journey years ago, when I was in love with the idea of become a novelist who wrote Young Adult Fiction. A lot has happened since I began writing my first novel "Lucian's Mark" on Wattpad. I moved to NYC, I got married, and more recently I am proud to say that I graduated law school and have begun studying for the Bar Exam. That being said, I recently did some soul searching and have realized that I still very much love writing and still dream of being a novelist. I am not sure how this dream will turn out, or if I will ever get to that point, but one thing is clear- I want to finish Lucian's Mark.
Over the years I have smiled and enjoyed every time I received a compliment or comment on Lucian's Mark. I have also felt a lot of guilt and shame for never finishing my novel. I have a folder that I keep in my car that holds all my ideas and drafts for the novel. So why the incomplete story? I think part of the reason I haven't finished is that I'm simply scared of the pressure to succeed. So many of you have told me you loved what I have written so far, and I would hate to not give the story its due justice.
Yet, I think that the fears of failure and pressure of success are not worth giving up. I think we all deserve to see 'Lucian's Mark' to the end. And if my novel just remains on Wattpad forever and never makes it anywhere else, then that would be just fine with me. One thing is for sure, it deserves to be complete.
So, thank you for the love and kind words over the years. Thank you for the follows, likes, and comments. And thank you for continuing on this journey with me. Let us finish it together.
