Hey! Happy New Year! I’ve been thinking about you lately and honestly wondered if you’d left Wattpad for a bit. I took a peek at your profile and was so relieved to see you’re still around!
I’ve been re-editing some of my older stories lately, and I keep running into your old comments. They are so lively and wonderful, they honestly make me miss our interactions! I’ve dropped some new chapters recently, and if you have the time, I’d love for you to check them out. You have some catching up to do, but I think you’ll really enjoy where the story is going. You’re still my favorite reader! Hope life is treating you well and please stop by and say hi when you can.

@talesoftanya Heyyyy Di!! Happy New Year! I'm alive, lol I did see your new story a while back. I believe I completed Kaliyug's Arjun Part 2; the thing is, I've been dealing with a much busier schedule lately, and have almost no time for picking up a new book. I also noticed how your chapters in the new book are much longer--DEFINITELY NOT a bad thing; please continue what you're doing, it's just that I really can't find the time rn. I will drop by whenever I can though and will check out your book. I'm sure it's amazing. Thank you for reaching out! Much love <3

Happy New Year!
Another year becomes history. In just a matter of hours, 2025 will be "last year". Unable to grasp the reality of it as usual, but I want to say some things as we bid farewell.
2025 has been quite an enormous year for me. A LOT of things have happened this year. I completed HS, I enrolled in college. I started a new book. I made SO many new friends, both online and in real time. To everyone who has made this year more special and more worthwhile for me, thank you.
Thank you to my online family for always being there for me, for always supporting me so beautifully.
I've grown tremendously throughout this year, both as a person and as a writer. One year ago, I was struggling to finish a bonus chapter for A Magical Spell at this time. Had someone told me then that I would have a new book in progress a year later, 26 chapters in, 5 chapters published in swift succession in December alone, I would have laughed it off, really.
My styles have changed, my perspectives and perceptions have changed. I have learnt to respect my work, and simultaneously make it worthy of my respect. When I look back at older projects, I can see how significantly I have improved in so many aspects.
I have become a realer person online with the passage of time, unlike who I once used to be. I have learnt so much from those around me, and have implemented what I have learned to help my own personal growth. For this I thank each and every one who has guided me along this journey by far, and will continue to guide me in the future.
I wish all of us even more success in the coming year. May we all grow to heights we never imagined, may we always remain humble in the process.
May Sri Sri Radha Madhava, Sri Sita Ramachandra, Sri Sri Nitai Gaursundar, and Sri Prahlad Narasimha Dev keep us always in their mercy. May we advance in their bhakti.
Wishing all of you safety, joy, and lots of love. May the new year bring with it goodness and prosperity.
Hare Krishna ! ❤️

I'm about to pull off a very risky stunt with a sentence in chapter 27. Informing in advance because I know you logon ne zinda nahi chordna hai mujhe.
One more thing. Do I write wayyyyy too much about what the citizens are doing and feeling? I mean I know I do, but how do you guys feel about it. I only recently, properly noticed, and it has been bugging me ever since. The main reason why I show so much of the citizens and their celebrations is because I'm trying to create that festive feeling and atmosphere. Is it working? Or am I just thop-ing a bunch of boring, repetitive description on you? Also I feel like talking about the city and what's happening in it takes care of a little bit of the worldbuilding (pardon me if it doesn't, I'm terrible at worldbuilding of all things); because I'm creating this like, grand image of what Ayodhya must have been like in real time when all of this was happening.
Does any of this make sense?
Now that the plot is escalating, how much attention should I give to the citizens? Should I ignore showing them completely? Will that build better flow? Or show them at only very necessary intervals?
TheLadyAesthetic
@Ramayana_lover Everything you said makes complete sense, as usual ✨, and is quite on par with my understanding too. So that's a huge relief. The fact that the people's reactions give a large scale reflection to whatever is happening within the royal family - I couldn't have said it better. That also puts a lot of my disarrayed thoughts into place, so thank you T-T About the 'risk', you'll see *wink*

IMPORTANT QUESTION:
Chapter 26 is ready to publish, but I need some information before I finalize its ending.
Should I add a chapter in between with Sita-Rama, Lakshman-Urmila? This is like, the final stretch before everything rapidly goes downhill, so is it necessary or will it only mess up the flow?
I also realized that I have little to no scenes of Sita-Urmila, and I really want to add one before the parting scenes come around.
It's not going to be a long chapter, 2200 words max. I could just write it and set it aside for the extras, but I realize I've been doing that a lot lately.
Thoughts?
TheLadyAesthetic
@Ramayana_lover Got it. This diversion chapter would be 27 though, the transition between this night and next morning. But I totally get what you mean. Will make it an extra.
Ramayana_lover
@TheLadyAesthetic now that I've caught up w the chapters While I would love to read those scenes that you're listing our, those little interactions, I would definitely be concerned about it cutting off the flow. I mean you've established a connection between chapters well, and I would think that going ahead w the plot would make most sense in terms of flow. Especially because you HAVE already unleashed that shattering blow in the last line of chp 25. It's the central most theme of this specific plot, so after revealing it, I feel like the plot should progress. However, it is your call. Maybe you could still incorporate those scenes. Or perhaps you could include them as flashbacks later on if you don't want them for bonus snippets. But imo continuing w the storyline would make a little more sense here
