New pen name: Jhosa Arion
These past few days I have been thinking about changing my pen name. But I am afraid and at the same time doubtful. Naisip ko na baka kapag nagpalit ako ng pen name wala nang makakilala sa akin, baka makalimutan na nila si Sario Julian (stoutnovelist). It's a tough decision, but today, I took the courage to let go of that fear.
Sario Julian (stoutnovelist) is my pen name and username for almost 10 years in the writing world (like wattpad). Maraming nakakilala sa akin, marami akong na-achieve na mga dream. Marami akong nakilala dahil sa pen name na ‘to. It's hard to let go, but I want to grow. I want my heart to be free. I want my true writer self to show what I really want to write and give to the readers.
Gusto ko na mag-look forward with the new version of myself as a writer— ang magbigay ng istorya na gusto kong iparating sa aking mga mambabasa without knowing who really I was. Mahirap siya pero kailangan ko, dahil sa tingin ko dito ako mas maging matapang, at mas matuto pa sa pagsusulat.
Jhosa Arion is a new version of myself as a writer— the fearless, the bravest, and a writer who wants to explore more of herself.
As I change my pen name, I hope you will say goodbye to Sario Julian (stoutnovelist) and welcome me as Jhosa Arion.
To Sario Julian (stoutnovelist), thank you for being with me as my immature self since 2014. Thank you for almost 10 years of writing stories. Marami akong natutunan sa ‘yo kung saan babaunin ko sa panibagong kabanata na aking tatahakin. Palagi kang parte ng pagiging isa kong manunulat.
For the last time,
Sario Julian (stoutnovelist)
