 Story Update! 
          
          I just wanted to pop in and say thank you to everyone who’s been reading, voting, commenting, and adding The Demon Who Studied Me to your libraries. Every notification genuinely makes my day.
          
          I’m officially scheduled out through early September, so you can expect two new chapters every week! We’ve reached the point where the story starts opening up in a much bigger way, and some of my favorite chapters are coming soon.
          
          Without giving too much away…
          
           The Garden is changing.
           The Veil is paying attention.
           And Marigold is about to learn that what she thought was an escape… was never just a dream.
          
          I love reading your theories, so don’t be shy! Some of you have already noticed little details I hid in earlier chapters, and it’s been so much fun watching everyone put the pieces together.
          
          Thank you all for being here at the beginning of this journey. I can’t wait for you to see what’s coming next.

 Story Update: The Demon I Studied 
          
          After a lot of planning, outlining, deleting, rewriting, and questioning my sanity, I’ve officially set a posting schedule for The Demon I Studied.
          
          ✨ New chapters will be posted every Saturday at 12:00 AM. ✨
          
          For those of you who are joining me on this journey:
          
           Expect:
          • A slow-burn paranormal romance
          • Psychological mysteries
          • Dream worlds and nightmares
          • A demon king who may know more than he should
          • A forensic psychology PhD student who asks too many questions
          • Things that get much darker before they get better
          
          And for my fellow readers who like to theorize…
          
          Keep your eyes on the details.
          
          Not everything in the Veil is what it seems.
          
          Some doors are meant to stay closed.
          
          And some monsters are watching back. 
          
          Thank you for all the support already. Every read, vote, comment, and theory means more than you know.
          
          See you Saturday.

 WE DID IT 
          
          King of Shadows is officially complete.
          
          Not "almost complete."
          Not "a few chapters left."
          
          Complete.
          
          Honestly, I'm not sure it's fully sunk in yet.
          
          Mina and Vaelorn started as an idea, and somehow turned into a full story with twists, fights, questionable decisions, a stubborn king, and a woman who absolutely refused to stay in anyone's shadow.
          
          To everyone who read, voted, commented, added it to reading lists, or simply spent time in this world with me….thank you!
          
          Every single read mattered.
          
          I loved writing these characters, and letting them go is bittersweet. Their story is finished, but I don't think I'll ever completely leave this world behind.
          
          Now that King of Shadows has reached its ending, my focus is shifting to my next project:
          
           The Demon I Studied 
          
          Marigold Lily studies monsters for a living.
          
          She believes every mind can be explained.
          Every behavior understood.
          
          Until something starts watching her in her dreams.
          
          He remembers their conversations.
          Learns her patterns.
          Studies her the way she studies others.
          
          Malekai is not a hallucination.
          
          He is the King of the Veil—an ancient realm between worlds.
          
          And Marigold didn't just imagine him.
          
          She created a door.
          
          Now he's learning how to step through it.
          
          And the closer she gets to understanding the mind of a demon king...
          
          the closer he gets to reality.
          
          This story is darker, stranger, and unlike anything I've written before.
          
          So tell me...
          
          Have you finished King of Shadows yet?
          
          And are you ready to meet Malekai? 

Hey everyone 
          I just wanted to give a quick update about King of Shadows.
          I’m incredibly proud of this story, especially as my first book, and I’m so grateful for all the love and support you’ve shown it. 
          Truly, it means everything to me.
          That said, I’ve decided to temporarily unpublish it so I can go back through and clean up a few details and continuity issues. I want to make sure everything flows smoothly and that your reading experience is as immersive and consistent as possible.
          This isn’t a rewrite—just a polish.
          Thank you for reading, voting, and even catching small details along the way. 
          It honestly makes the story stronger, and I appreciate you more than you know.
          I’ll have it back up soon, better than ever 

A new door has opened.
          The Demon I Studied is now publishing — new chapters every Friday at midnight.
          
          Be careful what you study.
          Sometimes the monster studies you back.
          
          Welcome to the Veil. 

King of Shadows is officially complete.
          
          I don’t even know how to put this into words.
          
          Over 11,000 reads.
          Top 10 in vampire.
          Hundreds of votes.
          And a story that started as an idea in my head.
          
          Thank you for walking through the dark with me.
          
          Now I have a question.
          
          If you loved Mina’s strength…
          How would you feel about a story set in 1950s America about a quiet, calculated female assassin hunting powerful men?
          
          Different world. Same fire.
          
          Let me know below. 
          

 Before King of Shadows Ends… 
          
          This story has gone further than I ever imagined, and we’re getting close to the end.
          I’d really love to hear from you.
          
           What chapter did you love the most?
           What moment stayed with you?
           Was there anything you wanted more of—or less of?
          
          And when this story ends…
          What kind of book would you want me to write next?
          
          Speak freely—the king is listening
