What an Easter week, gave me the perfect time to refresh myself, until today where I'm once again I'm tired. Regardless, I hope you all had a lovely Easter holiday and may it continue for the next week. I'm not sure how it works in other countries but it always brings out the best in all of us (and sometimes the worst). 
          Tomorrow will be Easter and I thought I should give you a small, little present...
          
          That present... is UNDERGROUND, my apocalyptic survival horror story. If you're interested in what it is, I would love to hear what you think the story might be. But revealing that title and the genre isn't the present...
          The REAL Easter Present is...
          
          Still a surprise because this story took three years of my life to develop and turn it into what it is now. Sorry for not giving you that present but to make you happy for once, the only thing I should say about this story is that it's about a group of people who ventures into something dark and mysterious yet one that brings them what they desire, wealth, a healthy lifestyle or freedom. But what most of the people in this group want is freedom and it's why they chose to do it. But what they discover down there goes from dark and mysterious into a dark nightmarish hell. There's always a saying regarding Heaven and Hell, with Heaven you want to stay there forever. With Hell, it's an eternal prison that you want to escape from but couldn't because instead of freedom, it's suffering. The characters starts from the start of Hell further into the screaming depths of Hell. 
          
          On the start of May, I will be releasing a short story that will be split into parts or episodes, giving you at least an idea of what UNDERGROUND truly is with the final parts of this short story giving you the answer on what this story is. Just to let you know, the short story will not be in the final draft.
          
          UNDERGROUND releases on November 3 2026
          The Prologue and first three chapters releases on October 27 for a first free impression.

Hi Ishmael! I'm sorry but if you remember me, i'm from Slowly  (my username is iamparas) i'm sorry for not replying to your letter very soon (and ofc it's really late, a year, i'm sorry)

March is almost over and I gotta say, it was a good one, filled with so much joy and so much luck, then by the end comes the overwhelming exhaustion that once again haunts me, the same exhaustion that caused me to feel tired, so much I'm even feeling unmotivated to write. What the hell am I going on about, I am writing this page. I want to say to whoever started reading ILL, thank you so much, it meant the world to me even if it's only 111 views. AZRA is still out there so I'll give you till November to read it. Wait why am I mentioning November, making it some deadline you should keep an eye on? 
          
          Right now I'm currently writing the standalone spin off to ILL which is 1/3 complete and today, I'll reveal what it's about since the concept and story is straightforward.
          The title for ILL's standalone spin off is called SLEEP,  a story about an American Malaysian woman called Abigail Mendoza, known by her name Abbie, in this story, of all the protagonists I've written, she's the most miserable, lonely woman I have ever written, going through alcoholism, hates her job, hates her mom and can't even sleep, when she does sleep, it's always short because of a nightmare that she's going through. But as the story goes on, her sleeping problems turn worse, making her question everything, forcing her to face her past. It's a psychological drama thriller with horror elements and in this story, you'd learn who she is and most of all, have fun figuring out why she's having those nightmares, what it all means. As you read through, the story will have Easter eggs to ILL's sequel, as well as spoilers for the book so if you want to read SLEEP, read ILL.
          SLEEP will be on Wattpad on March 2027.
          
          Then comes my other story I have already written. All I can say is, it's very scary, intense and filled with survival horror action.
          UNDERGROUND, an apocalyptic survival horror releasing onn November 3 2026 with the prologue and first three chapters releasing on October 27. That's all...

Today is Sunday, the end of the week and for everyone to come together to be with family, friends and romantic partners. Or you just hate life, hate everyone as well as blame everyone for everything that has happened to you without knowing that some of it or most of it might be your own fault. 
          And not only that, today is Happy International Woman's Day. This day goes to my mom and my little sister. 
          
          Speaking of this, looking through Wattpad records, I took notice that the story I really loved writing, ILL has been read 73 times. That to me makes me very happy because it's one of the stories I really enjoyed writing and seeing that there are people or maybe at least one person that chooses to read it is enough to make me smile. However, I do have to take notice of some chapters that have not been read by some readers. Yes I know the chapters can be read at random but it's always recommended to read all chapters from start to finish rather than jumping from one chapter and onto some random chapter cause it'll cause some inconsistencies and also you might miss lots of hidden details or even the exciting parts of the story. 
          
          Nevertheless, thank you to everyone who has given ILL the chance, I hope you give my latest story AZRA that chance too. With that in mind, I can say that the sequel to ILL is officially happening going by its working title ILL 2. As of now, it's still in the planning stages with the lead characters having been conceived but it might take between 2 to 3 years until the story is fully conceived. 
          
          While ILL 2 is being planned, I also want to reveal that I'm currently writing a standalone spinoff set in the world of ILL that focuses on an original psychological drama story blended with horror that tells its own story while expanding the universe, as well as adding some Easter eggs for ILL 2. 
          
          Here's the link for both ILL and AZRA. Once again, thank you.

AZRA is now online! All Chapters for AZRA are now online. If you have free time and you're interested in reading my new psychological horror story, let me know and when you read it, enjoy it while also taking into account of the themes explored throughout the story. 
          
          Whether you read it or not, I'm proud of how the story is and the three year journey I've undertaken in getting this story out. 
          As soon as you open AZRA, make sure you read the disclaimer part first to help you prepare mentally for what's about to come and if you choose to continue reading it from start to finish, then it's all yours.
          
          If you read it, I will happily appreciate but if you're unable, that's alright but I hope for people who can't read it, I'd say give it a chance.
          
          AZRA is now online!

Just nine more hours till the rest of AZRA is completely online here on this site. It's been a journey, starting from when I was still in University struggling to get my thesis done due to procastination that led me to create a short story that introduces the entity itself to creating a psychological nightmare ride set in 1970s London. But I wasn't here to create a psychological horror story filled with suspense, tension and gore, I wanted to use this to tell a human story for the characters that are going to be going through a lot of hell throughout the entire story. 
          
          Why did I choose Valentines Day for the release? Originally it was supposed to be on Mother's Day but as time went on, I understood that with where the story is, I had to release it sooner than later and since the story does have romance as well, I felt I should release it on Valentines Day.
          Another reason is that in that day, there are people who are either going through heartbreak, stress, exhaustion, the struggles of everyday life or you just been single for your whole life and that you need something to fill the void. While the story is fun and filled with heartwarming moments, it is very dark, grim and also uncomfortable and shocking at times but it's one you should look into and give it a chance as it might relate to any issues you're all going through and it might give you the fun and adrenaline to keep your hearts racing and your mind open.
          
          Once the story goes completely online, give this story a shot, give it a read, tell me what you think, share your praises and worries and most of all...
          HAVE FUN! Because in a world filled with sadness and destruction, there is always hope, love and happiness. Please keep those words to your heart as you read this message cause even if reading my story means a lot to me, I want you all to read this and tell yourself that you're lucky and to always be kind.

Two more days left! I can't believe it, AZRA is almost online and I gotta say, I'm proud of it. Thus I reveal a true story that has heavily inspired the lead characters. The story is semi-autobiographical of my parents. Amy is heavily inspired by my mom while the male lead Henry is heavily inspired by my dad. Here's the true story that inspired Henry and Amy.
          
          My dad was raised in a tough environment due to the poverty they're going through so he spent his life studying hard, working hard and helping his family yet it made it hard for him to make some friends because he struggles to speak to people, his social skills weren't the best but he was a hell of a basketball player as well as a womanizer.
          My mom was raised in a big family with loads of sisters and a couple of brothers and yet regardless of how healthily raised she was in, she still has to provide for herself, her older sisters, especially her mom (my grandma) were really strict on her, her closest sibling was her twin sister and her father was the most influential person in her life and a person who I wished I could see and talk to right now. 
          Like how Amy and Henry will first meet in the story, my parents met while studying in university, different course and in real time, it took my dad months to finally make her his girlfriend as she was at the time dating some random lad. In the end, she finally dates him in where they would remain happily together for the rest of their lives. 
          Then comes one true fact that has happened. The moment I was born, we went through severe poverty, the house they brought was broken in by thieves and my parents struggled. Months later, my mom got an opportunity, to work as a nurse in the UK. She was forced to leave me and my dad so that she can provide for all of us but after I turned 2, my dad chose to bring me and himself to the UK so that I won't have a mom who is absent in my life.

One week left till the rest of AZRA's story goes online on Wattpad, in here and my God, I'm so not feeling well today writing this message but I'll push through.
          
          I already mentioned that AZRA originally began as a short story The Procastinator set in modern times unlike AZRA which is set in the mid 1970s. Those two figures are actually the same but when trying to conceive and develop the antagonist, it felt like I'm playing with fire, causing me to question myself, my beliefs because writing the characters is like living through their lives. The Good and the Bad.
          
          With the antagonist, I spent almost two years conceiving and developing the character and as time grew on, the character too started forming in my head in a dark twisted manner. I knew what I wanted the antagonist to look like and when its appearance is revealed, it's not going to be beautiful or handsome (if anyone thinks of that, you're weird), its true appearance is ugly, deformed and hideous to look at, it'll make you either want to feel sympathy for it, disgust or just shock and horror. This leads me to wanting to reveal how the antagonist actually feels throughout the story.
          It's constantly suffering, the way it breathes like it constantly needs oxygen, its lungs were heavily affected leading to times when it coughs blood and around its body, through its sleeves, its constantly breathing. How to make my antagonist different from other villains? The answer was to show that it's always going through suffering, the suffering is eternal and when it's someone else, wearing someone's skin, it's the only thing that brings it relief but it never lasts long.
          The pain was inspired by my pain from the past and present and I thought the best way to represent that is through the title character.
          
          Well that's all I can say...
          AZRA releases on February 14
          The prologue and the first two chapters are available online to read now.
          
          https://www.wattpad.com/story/397086153-azra

The countdown is on. Today is February 1 which means starting today, we got only 13 more days left till AZRA goes online on Wattpad. 
          
          The journey of writing AZRA was (like the stories I've written) years in the making and even if I want people to read it, I also plan on reading it myself after making some edits on the story. The only thing I didn't edit out was the 18 rated stuff such as the gore and sexual content. Originally I thought of doing it but the things I went through before, during the writing of the story and after it was done, I decided to keep it. People would ask me why I didn't edit out the 18 rated stuff and here are my reasons:
          One I wanted to capture the magic of the 1970s/80s slasher horror movies I watched when I was a child.
          Two, to show that the violence shown doesn't hold back cause that's what the antagonist does to its victims, including what it does to the main characters.
          Here comes one more reason, to up the tension further and probably leave you readers even more scared of what's to come.
          For why I didn't edit out the sexual content, it's best you read the story as the final act of the chapter will go further into this theme in a more nightmarish, disturbing manner.
          
          But the story is not always dark, it does have its lighter moments to give you readers to relax but is it more of a way to relax. Here's something I should tell you, it's like you meet a handsome or beautiful man or woman who is perfect in many ways, no red flags, is a gentleman and loves you for who you are but eventually, the cracks begin to show where the partner is actually revealed to be more of a toxic, abusive manipulator who makes your life miserable. That's how I can describe how AZRA's written, a story you would fall in love with only for its true colours to be revealed.
          
          AZRA releases on February 14.
          Prologue and first two chapters are now online.

There's one more main character I want to introduce. With who inspired my characters, there are so many people, my friends, my mom, my dad, my sister, maybe a person who I used to be friends with, maybe a person who I hated or they hated me. But there are times some characters were inspired by me. 
          Amy was inspired by my mom, Henry was inspired by my dad during both of their younger years. A part of Skid's personality was inspired by me but his true inspiration was a combination of all the people I know while the mysterious figure, this thing is inspired by me, the sadness, the anger, the loneliness, the negativity and the envy. These are who my main characters were inspired from but there's one more I want to introduce.
          
          Meet Lily, a pretty British white lady who is Rose's roommate the moment Rose steps into her dorm and later on throughout the story, her close friend. She's an energetic, outgoing woman who can make people laugh, smile, someone who will be there for you but deep down, she has a dark past that is mentioned at first in the early chapters but as the story goes on, us readers will learn even more about her and her past is something that to me makes her tragic. Her past is another secret we will be going through and one the mysterious figure will use to make her suffer. 
          
          The moment Lily gets involved in what Amy is going through, her sanity and mind will be affected in worst ways, worst than what she has already been through.
          
          And that is all the main characters I have introduced to you all and we now only have 20 days left till the rest of the story is released.
          
          February 14 is the release date for my new psychological nightmare.
