I recently watched the movie, "Promising Young Women," and one line stuck with me was ... (read on here): https://www.buymeacoffee.com/pageturner/perfectionist-750090

I finished editing "Not That Innocent!" It's been such a long process, I even spent over a month reading the plot out loud to my mom over the phone to see if it makes sense to her. Haha.  Please check it out: https://www.wattpad.com/story/264633881-not-that-innocent
          It's not your ordinary mystery.  It focuses on the psychological element. And it's got some romantic plot there, too!

Rewriting/editing is done for The Boyfriend Program! Wow! it's weird, I am so much more reluctant to see this story end, I don't know why.  There is just something about the ending, especially the last sentence.  Anyway, I added about 4k-5k more words into this story, smoothing it over.  Oh! I added something entirely new in the last chapter.  If you've read this story, check out the last chapter, and I hope you'll be pleasantly surprised!

I went to a local art festival today and saw at least four different booths that were set up by authors promoting their books.  All of them have written at least three novels.  One of the authors has passed away but his wife is still going to various events to display his work.  I could tell all of them been writing for years and have never given up.
            I wonder what is the reason that propels all of us-- the unknown writers-- to keep writing? (read on--  https://www.buymeacoffee.com/pageturner/writers  )
          I just remember when I was little, I love nothing more than reading.

New and improved Prince Charming Loses Charm!!  Ready for you to read!! 129K words down to 85K words.  I added more humorous inner thoughts, moved up a male character the I really like!  I also cut out all the evil and heavy dramas (haha), so this is now definitely much lighter & more fun! If you  haven't read it or previously browsed it, please take a look at the synopsis or the prologue! I guarantee you'll like it!

          P.S. all the European elements are based on my personal travel experiences and interactions with my European friends.   P.P.S. I'm now starting to edit The Boyfriend Program.  I've designed new covers for two of my titles.  Click and see if you like the new book covers!

I finished my first round of major re-writing for "Prince Charming Loses Charm" yesterday. Phew. Cut 129K words down to 90K.  I am starting the second round of tweaking/re-writing now.  
          As I re-read each chapter I wrote half of year ago, I still crack myself up, because "Prince Charming Loses Charm" really is a humorous look on many things.  Please take a look, and I hope you find humor in this story as well!

Hi! I just completed writing "Not That Innocent" on Monday.  This story has a prominent romantic plotline exploring "will they, won't they," on top of a mystery.  The mystery isn't so much about playing the detective. It's about how to balance secrecy and not let doubt consume you. If you want a heart-wrenching romance, this one won't disappoint!  https://www.wattpad.com/story/264633881-not-that-innocent
          P.S. "Not That Innocent" is inspired by my real life experience working as a news reporter.  Please comment freely! I'd love to see any feedback or questions! I will begin editing it soon, so your comments would be greatly valued!

What if someone knows about your past and predicts that you will become a bad person in the future before even meeting you? Is there anything you can do to change their mind? (Especially when you have a crush on this person?) And what if everyone only knows you through online media and that online image is no longer favorable to you?  
          These are the ideas I want to play with now that I'm re-writing "Prince Charming Loses Charm."   It's romance with a humorous take on the society.  
          The re-writing is a HUGE decision because there is no going back to my original version(which was 129K words)!  I actually deleted the original version chapter by chapter and I didn't save anything.  That's how determined I am! I still keep one part from the original version: the female lead can see the past and predict the future of the male lead.  The male lead wants to prove he can change (because he likes her).  All the while, I want to juxtapose another challenge for the male lead: most people learn about him only through internet. When there is one very powerful negative post about him gone viral, how does he bounce back from that?  Basically, his past, his presence, his future are kind of out of his hands and how does he take his own narrative back (and pursue the girl he likes)? Check it out (first 23 chapters have been re-worked as of now).

Hi! My romantic comedy, "The Boyfriend Program" is complete now! I feel oddly sentimental that I'm kind of saying goodbye to these characters that I've been writing about.  But I'm also so glad to give them a complete story to live in now.  Obviously, the next thing I'm going to do is start editing and tweaking.  But, please do check it out! https://www.wattpad.com/story/270240898-the-boyfriend-program    Let me know if you have any comment! All feedback and criticism is welcome!
