Congratulations! Book 1 of Thorns is officially wrapped up!
          
          In all honesty, I am not that confident with the Epilogue. But I hope you are satisfied with the ending as it symbolizes the essence of the book — courage and hope.
          
          I know it’s been a long time. But I am always and forever grateful to those who stay with me. For coming back to my words. For believing in my stories.
          
          There is so so much more in my drafts. I am excited to share it with you when the time comes. But I am hoping for your patience.
          
          Many thanks, my love.

The last chapter, Symptom XX, is finally up!
          
          I’m honestly thrilled right now as the next part will be the epilogue. After 2-3 years of writing Thorns on this app, finally, I can now breathe (haha). Unfortunately, I am still not sure when I can publish the epilogue since my one-month-break is almost over. Hopefully, I can squeeze some time to write for the next few weeks; although, I am not really in the best shape right now to write creatively. I’ve been writing research/academic papers last year and it took a toll on how I usually write my stories (so I travel a lot lately to cope up).
          
          I have so so much to write about. Hence, plans for the Book 2 of Thorns is least of my priorities rn. But to leave a hint for you to ponder, the prologue of Book 1 is the epilogue of the Book 2 and the epilogue of Book 1 is the prologue of the Book 2. It’s ultimately a major spoiler for what you will be expecting so I am hoping that you give yourself some time to digest every words that I’ve written.
          
          With all that being said, I would also like to thank you all for staying with me ever since I first published Thorns. I can remember all the names who stayed with me as I can still see them in my notifications. Thank you for respecting my privacy, the life I have outside on this app, and for not pressuring me to update. I am, and always will be, filled with gratitude.
          
          I’ll be resting after this, so if you have queries and whatnot, please leave a message in my inbox. Nag-eentertain po ako ng mga tanong don’t worry!
          
          Salamat. Hanggang sa muli.
