Random little rant / life thought.
          	
          	I’ll be ending my student life very soon, and that thought is sitting very strangely with me. I don’t even know if I will ever be a student again.
          	
          	When I look back, I realise how silly I used to be sometimes, how freely I could make mistakes and just move on. There was always another semester, another exam, another chance to reset things.
          	
          	But at the same time, I always felt a little caged. Like a frog in a well that thought the well was the whole world. I wanted exposure, new places, new experiences, everything outside that small circle.
          	
          	Now that I’m slowly seeing outside of that “well”, things feel… a little scary.
          	
          	Maybe it’s the uncertainty. Maybe it’s the realisation that I feel very unprepared for the world outside academics. Or maybe it’s just the transition itself.
          	
          	Any fellow soon-to-be graduates feeling the same way?
          	And to the people who have already graduated… any advice for surviving this phase of life?

          "Adihara's Parents" can you please please please make a bunch of chapters on series pregnancy as a flashback pleaseeee I really think ot would be amazing and beautiful!! And do update soon please 
          Thankyou!!

@sam_pranu Hellooooo 
            
            First of all, this is such a sweet request, like I can literally see the vision you’re talking about and yes it would be beautiful 
            
            And you are one of my OG readers so your ideas always hit a little extra close to my heart 
            
            Right now I’m actually in the final arc of Aadhira’s Parents, so I’m trying to stay focused on finishing their present timeline properly and giving them a good ending.
            
            Buttttt 
            
            I love the idea of exploring their journey during pregnancy as flashbacks or even special chapters later. That phase has so much emotion and I’ve thought about it too, just didn’t know where to place it in the main flow.
            
            So I won’t promise it inside the main story right now, but I’m definitely keeping this idea safe for later because it deserves to be written properly 
            
            Also thank you for always being here and supporting me, it means a lot more than you know

          This one is quiet, a little heavy, and very Ram-coded stubborn energy. Please go read and yell at him for me
          .

Happy Valentine’s Day my buttercups and honeybuns 
          
          Whether you are in love, almost in love, healing from love, single but emotionally married to fictional characters, or just here for the chocolate discounts… I see you.
          
          May you experience the kind of love that feels safe, warm and a little dramatic in a cute way. May your life give you green flags, good communication, and people who reply on time. And if not, may at least your favourite fictional man behave properly today.
          
          If you are single, I hope you flirt with your goals and fall deeply in love with your own growth. If you are taken, I hope your relationship feels like comfort and laughter and not stress.
          
          And if none of this applies, I hope you eat something sweet, romanticise your own life a little, and remember that love comes in many forms. Friends, family, self, and yes… the imaginary men who live rent free in our heads.
          
          Sending you all big hugs and extra love today. Tell me what kind of Valentine you are this year 
          
          I miss being here so much, I hope everyone here is doing well! Remember to take care of yourself and don't forget to smile a little every day, cause you my cuties deserve all the happiness, happy moments and memories to cherish onto!

Random thought that randomly attacked my brain.
          
          Why do we normalise winning so much in stories?
          
          Like, if an MC and FMC are in a contest, competition, or literally anything… they almost always win. Out of 100 plots I’ve read, at least 80–90 end with the main characters coming out on top like it was destiny all along.
          
          Why don’t we normalise failing the same way?
          
          Is it because we only like characters who are strong, always winning, never losing, never having a bad day in life? Is losing suddenly a crime in fiction *attaches crying emoji*
          
          Personally, my stories are always a part of me. Every character I write has flaws, and while most of it serves the plot, there are always bits pulled straight from my own experiences. And trust me, failing, being confused, and not knowing what’s next are very real parts of life.
          
          I’m not asking anyone to change their writing style or copy me, this is just me being curious. We romanticise so many things in fiction anyway. Cheating, betrayal, emotional damage, morally grey chaos. 
          
          If we can do all that, surely mentioning failure once in a while isn’t illegal, right?
          
          Would genuinely love to know what you all think

Hi hi hi everyone,
          
          Sakshi missing? Lost? Disappeared again? Went underground?
          
          No no. I am here. Alive. Breathing. Secretly lurking.
          Also pretending to eat potato chips while typing this. That part is a lie. I am suffering(willingly). Please send snacks(hugs also work) 
          
          Life has absolutely refused to slow down. Every single time I think okay now I will write, some other priority jumps out like SURPRISE. Which honestly explains why there have been no updates from my side lately.
          
          Between working on two major projects, some research work, studies, health, self care and whatever else life keeps throwing at me, my brain is running on pure chaos and caffeine.
          
          So I have decided to aim for the bare minimum and honestly I am proud of that. One scene a day. Nothing extra. Nothing fancy. 
          
          At this pace chapters might come very slowly, but at least I am not stopping. 
          
          That is what I keep telling myself.
          
          Anyway, just wanted to pop in and say hi before life drags me away again. Still here. Still writing. Just doing it messily and one scene at a time.
          
          Also tell me how life has been treating you lately. 
          
          Or if you are also just juggling everything and swimming through it. We will reach there eventually 
          
          Take care of yourselves, smile a little more, enjoy a little more, do one thing just for yourself today, and sleep well! 
          
          Much Love
          Sakshi Devi

Sorry for the rant 
          
          Sometimes I genuinely don’t understand why some people are so annoying 
          
          We’re doing a group project. Emphasis on the group. Everyone is supposed to do their part, right? But then there’s always that one person who decides to do everything  not just their work, but everyone else’s too  and somehow still manages to make it difficult for the rest of us to function.
          
          Like… I get it. You want to give your best. Gold star 
          
          But is doing your part properly not enough? Why turn teamwork into a one-person show and make others feel like background characters in a project they’re also graded for? 
          
          No hate, no drama, just vibes not matching and the working style is exhausting.
          
          Anyway, rant over. If you relate, welcome to the club. If not, lucky you 

authorsakshiii

@Butterflytomoose26 I totally get this 
            Some people really confuse confidence with constantly needing the spotlight. Quiet competence doesn’t need announcements or performances.
            Also the fact that your pictures made it to the final edit says everything 
            Sometimes the best response is just letting life do the explaining.
            Thanks for sharing this, you’re definitely not alone.

@authorsakshiii  tired of these people since childhood. My school friends, a few of them are always like that. Always seeking the spotlight. There's this one girl who thinks she's too perfect in every aspect of her life and acts like the fellow people are so dumb and we can't handle ourselves. Good that we lost in touch after completing school. After many years we planned a Getto and this girl didn't comment in the group chat much as if she was someone very important and made others look like fools. Like seriously? Who's the actual fool here ? Discussing with the fellow colleagues doesn't make you fool na. 
            
            During the gathering everyone asked whose phone camera is clear, mine is crystal clear even though it's not an apple series one. 
            
            I didn't say it either. But my cousin sister was my class, so she said my phone is clear. So they asked if one could click better pictures and this girl, with a sincere look, took my phone to compensate for the loss of comments. And clicked chapri pictures as if she was some best photographer. I didn't say anything and let it be as always. 
            
            I too clicked pics and videos and guess what? They took my edits and, not even a single pic which was clicked by her was added in the clip they made. Like what the hell is that?

IT’S OUT. 
          
          The prologue of my new story THE ALLIANCE is officially LIVE.
          
          Political drama.
          Morally grey characters.
          Power, silence, and decisions that don’t wait for permission.
          
          This idea hit me suddenly and refused to let go, so here we are.
          I’m excited, nervous, and slightly unhinged about this one, but I really wanted to share it with you all.
          
          If you like intense slow-burns, power games, fierce characters, and stories where nobody is purely right or wrong, go read the prologue now.
          
          And PLEASE tell me what you felt, your reactions genuinely matter to me.
          
          Don’t forget to vote, share, and tag your Pranushka friends if this sounds like their kind of chaos. 
          
          Cover update coming soon, and the story is only going to get darker from here.
          
          Okay bye, I’m going to refresh the comments section like a maniac now. 
          See you in the next update.

rant session (i don’t remember the number) 
          
          Tomorrow is my last exam, and just when I was about to be happy thinking okay fine, little break, little peace, life decided to surprise me with a whole new coursework and a hectic schedule starting literally from day after tomorrow. I love grinding and doing real work, I genuinely do, but also… a little break? Just one? As a treat?  Apparently not.
          
          So yeah, if I’m a bit all over the place for a while, this is why. Not disappearing, just navigating exams, deadlines, and everything in between, one day at a time.
          
          dear little me, this version is for you. I hope you are happy that we are taking slow and steady steps towards our goal!
          
          I won’t call this a break, because no matter what happens, if I get the urge to write, I’m going to write anyway. That part of me never really stops. So maybe I’ll be quiet for a bit, or maybe I’ll randomly surprise you guys and myself too. Who knows.
          
          For now, I’m just choosing to listen to myself more, and that feels important.
          
          Okay, rant over. Back to surviving real life ✨

HAPPY NEW YEAR, my buttercups and honeybuns!!! ✨
          
          May this new year bring you so much more happiness, peace, good health, and all the tiny moments that make life feel lighter. May you read a hundred more stories, get lost in them at 2 a.m., and maybe even write a few yourself because yes, your imagination deserves that space too 
          
          May you feel every emotion deeply. The soft ones, the overwhelming ones, and the ones that make you stare at the ceiling thinking about fictional characters for hours. May you get dangerously attached to them because let’s be honest, real life can be traumatizing sometimes and fictional worlds are our safe spaces  And may every green flag fictional character you fall in love with somehow exist in real life too. Manifesting only healthy love stories for all of us ✨
          
          This year, I’m not here to make big, dramatic promises. I’m just here to tell you this. I restarted my journey not to quit, but to stay for as long as I can. I won’t leave you all hanging, and if life ever demands a pause, I promise I’ll always let you know instead of disappearing. We’re in this together 
          
          Thank you for choosing to walk into a new year with me, my stories, and my slightly chaotic brain. Let’s manifest chapters from my side and full-on reader energy from your side. Fair deal, right? 
          
          Enjoy this year. Make memories. Eat good food. Take care of yourself. Don’t be afraid to say no, protect your peace fiercely, and never let go of your inner child. That version of you deserves the world 
          
          Happy New Year once again, cutiess!!! 
          (Any specific story you want me to update today? )
