Hey friends,
          	
          	I wanted to try something new—a new pen name and a new genre.
          	
          	I’m so grateful to everyone who has read, voted, and supported Bones of Us. When I first started sharing my writing, I honestly didn’t think anyone would read it, so seeing it grow past 5k reads has meant so much to me.
          	
          	Over the past year, I’ve been pushing myself creatively and experimenting with different storytelling styles. I decided to branch into a more psychological romantic drama / love triangle dynamic, and I’ve now written my first 40k-word novel and am currently working on the third draft.
          	
          	I’d love honest feedback, thoughts, and reactions as I continue growing as a writer. Writing has become so much more fun when shared with other readers and creators, so I wanted to introduce you all to:
          	
          	JET LAG & RED FLAGS

Rumorna is officially live… and I feel like I owe y’all a little truth behind it 
          
          This story?  
          Was 100% inspired by my family.
          
          Not in a “one person = one character” way…  
          but in the way we talk, observe, joke, and sometimes say WAY too much without realizing it.
          
          If you’ve ever been around a big, loud, chaotic family then you know exactly what I mean.
          
          Someone always knows something.  
          Someone always says something.  
          And somehow… everyone finds out.
          
          And yes… this includes frozen turkey jokes, kissing cousins, and whatever else your imagination can handle 
          
          That energy? That’s Rumorna.
          
          It’s the curiosity.  
          The whispers.  
          The “wait… who told you that?” moments.
          
          But underneath all of that chaos…
          
          It’s really about people.  
          How we see each other.  
          How we misunderstand each other.  
          And how fast things can spiral when words start moving.
          
          So yeah… Rumorna might feel dramatic.
          
          But honestly?
          
          It’s not that far from real life 
          
          Thank you for reading, supporting, and being part of this with me.  
          We’re just getting started.

@NKayalath “Your stories pull attention  that’s clear.
            But attention isn’t fully turning into a loyal base yet… that gap slows real growth.
            You feel it too, right?

I’m back from Vacation but still MIA. I’m catching up on all the workload and getting settled back into REALITY. 
          
          Is it hard for anyone else to transition from Vacation Mode into REALITY mode? 
          
          It takes a toll on me…may need to up my psych meds

I completely understand. That’s why I usually go for more relaxing vacations like the spa and the beach. I don’t interact at all. I just put my sunglasses on and pretend I don’t see you or I’ve fallen asleep. If I do have to interact, I’ll just have my husband do the talking  the kids and him enjoy more active vacation. I rather just go somewhere where I don’t need to think or speak.

            When I travel, I feel like I have to deal with reality way more  Like… I can’t just hide in my cozy little world like I do at home  At home, I’ve got my safe space — I can daydream all I want, write my little stories, get lost in my thoughts, and just chill with my own vibes.
            
            But when I go on a trip, everything changes . I have to be around people more, talk, interact, be present, and honestly... it can get kinda overwhelming. It’s not like I don’t enjoy seeing new places, but it definitely pulls me out of my little inner bubble 
            
            So yeah, I guess it’s kinda the opposite for me. Traveling doesn’t really make me “escape” — it actually throws me into the middle of everything  I’m suuuper introverted, like peak introvert vibes lol 
            
            I hope you can adjust to everything you're going through soon, and that you start feeling better little by little. No matter what, I’m wishing you peace and comfort along the way.

Hey can we do a read for read ???
          
          Please if you have time do read my book so far away. 
          
          I need long term readers. So would like to accept my invitation. 
          
          I don't need you to read the whole book by a single day. All I need is a reader who could read my chapters once a week or once a month. 
          
          You get the point right ?? 
          
          And if you cannot accept my invitation. There's no need for apologise for it. Don't say sorry , I understand. 
          
          Thank you ! ❤️

Hey Friends: 
          
          Let's talk about My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh. In less than a paragraph, I was already consumed. I never related to an FL so hard in my life. That's saying a lot since I write my FL from a piece of my soul. The fact that we have the same allergies is nuts. I mean, I'm sure being allergic to strawberries is common, but still. It may be that she reminds me so much of my FL, Suzy, in Crazy, Maybe? Either way, let me know if anyone has read My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh. I want to hear your thoughts and join a BOOK CLUB  =^_^=
