Hey readers,
I hope you're all doing well!
I know I haven’t been very active here lately, and I’m really sorry about that. My studies have been taking up most of my time, and I barely get a chance to sit down and write. Still, I am working on my new book—fingers crossed I can finish it soon!
But today, I wanted to talk about something important.
I’ve been receiving quite a few hate comments and DMs about TMO. I know some of you were hoping for an alternate ending, but I never wrote one—and that was intentional. The book was meant to carry a personal message, especially about mental health and how people experience emotions differently. Christian was a character who didn’t really understand emotions well. He learned about the world through the internet because he didn’t have anyone in his life to show him what love, patience, or healing looked like. He wanted Stella to be that person for him, but by the time she was ready, it was too late. He didn’t know how to wait—because he had already waited for his parents, and they never came back. Everything he did came from what he’d experienced, and what little he understood.
Some people have also said the book is "just smut"—but that honestly misses the point. For Christian, physical closeness was the only way he knew to keep Stella around, because forming an emotional connection wasn’t something that came naturally to him. The whole point of the book was to show how differently people think and how even the smallest actions can have a huge effect on someone else’s life.
