Hey everyone,
          	I know I’ve been away for a couple of months, and I wanted to say I’m sorry for the silence. Life’s been shifting in big ways — I moved across a whole damn continent, and it’s taken me longer than I thought to adjust. Everything feels new: the streets, the people, the air, even the way time moves. It’s been two months now, and I’m still figuring out what “settled” even means.
          	
          	I left behind everything familiar — my home, my people, the comfort of knowing exactly where I belonged. And in this new place, I’ve had to learn what it means to start over, to build new routines, and to sit with the quiet parts of change. It’s been hard, but it’s also been teaching me more than I expected.
          	
          	I hope you can understand and give me a little more time as I find my way back. Writing has always been the one thing that grounds me, and I’ve missed it — missed sharing stories, missed connecting with all of you. I’m slowly finding my rhythm again, and I hope to be back to writing and updating my stories more often soon.
          	
          	Until then, I’ll be pouring my thoughts into something a little different — Modern Essays to Think About — small reflections on moving, distance, and the strange in-between of growing up far from home.
          	
          	Thank you for waiting, for reading, for still being here. I promise I’m still here too — just learning how to be here, somewhere new.

Hey my lovely readers 
          
          I just wanted to drop in and say something that's been weighing on my heart lately.
          
          First of all—I’m so, so grateful for the love you've shown my stories. Watching the reader count grow still blows my mind, and I genuinely didn’t expect to receive so much warmth from people across the globe. It means everything to me.
          
          But here’s the honest truth:
          I didn’t mean to go silent or delay updates. It was never the plan. If anything, I had hoped to submit My Boss is an Influencer or Love As It Is for the Wattys 2025… but something held me back.
          
          Not because I don’t believe in my stories—but because I don’t want to rush them. I don’t want to push something onto you that doesn’t feel ready… or ask for votes just for the sake of it. That doesn’t sit right with me as a writer—or as someone who truly values your time and attention.
          
          I know stories don't have to be perfect the first time around. But old habits die hard, and as someone who’s always tried to be an all-round achiever… it’s hard for me to hit “publish” until it feels right.
          
          So, with a slightly heavy heart—but a clear one—I’ve decided to take a longer break from publishing updates for now. There’s a lot going on creatively, emotionally, and practically (yes, the big move to New Jersey is coming up), and I need a little more time to reset and realign.
          
          Please know this isn't goodbye. I’ll be back, stronger and hopefully better—and when I return, I want to give you stories that feel honest and whole.
          
          Until then, I’m requesting your love, support, and wholehearted understanding.
          You’ve been my biggest motivation, and I carry your encouragement with me every day.
          
          Also, my DMs and comments are always open! I’d love to hear your thoughts, or just chat about the characters and the stories—what you love, what you wonder, or what you'd want to see next.
          
          Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
          I love you all.

I wrote the longest ever chapter for "My boss is an Influencer".
          Do give it a read and let me know your thoughts.
          
          I wanted to establish the parallel worlds or Tanya and Aaron by Chapter 10, and that's why it got pretty long.
          You can expect he completed story by the end of this month.
          Thank you
          Sending Love

Happy New Year 2025 everyone!!!!
          
          2024 has been a year of tremendous struggle and growth. 
          
          I have learned various lessons, and especially with the sudden break in writing, I remember feeling stifled in my work because I had not been able to write for quite some time.
          
          However, 2025, this year is the year of action and momentum.
          
          Thus you can all expect many more updates for the stories I have started and the new stories yet to come.
          
          You can all look forward to it!
          
          Cheers
