So sorry for your loss. I hope the new year is a better one.

Hey guys, I hope you've had a great end of the year :3
          
          I unfortunately didn't have the greatest December =') My dad died at the end of November, and my mom got seriously sick the very next day and spent a few days  in a hospital, then a week at home with nurses visiting us every 8 hours to medicate her, so I spent a lot of time taking care of (and stressing over) mom and sorting out dad's affairs and his funeral. 
          
          Mom is now all right, and so am I. I never was close with dad, and the only thing I was sad about was the fact that I was the only person who didn't cry at his funeral, but neither of us cared to have a relationship with each other, so it couldn't be helped. 
          
          His passing did make me stop to think about how fast life can be over, and long story short, I'm now determined to finally clean up the mess that I've made for myself over the years =') I will finish the unfinished stories I've had hanging without endings for so long. 
          
          This is a slow process since Shaded Universe is my main project and income, but I am using 1-2 days every week on my old stories. Acceptance and Save Me book 1 are now completely done, and I’m currently editing The Bet and Save Me book 2 for self-publication, and hopefully I can get them completed in 2026. 
          
          I’ve always wanted to get all my stories published as eBooks and physical books, and now is my chance to fulfill that dream since I can give 100% of my time to writing, thanks to Ream subscribers <3 I have a huge amount of work ahead of me, and I wish I could work even faster, since I have about 15 or more books/series to go =’)
          
          This may not be the best news for those who have eagerly waited for me to finish The Mouse and The Wolf series, or Safe Word Sunlight, or Six of Misfortune, or Unconditionally, or Foes, (if there still is someone left who remembers these stories), or the re-writes for Bound for Life, Lifeless, Collision, or those who have been hoping for a sequel to To Love a Beast.

"Your character feels so real! I wrote a story focusing on emotions and identity too, and I’d be honored if you had a look. Keep up the amazing writing!

Reading 'Save me from myself' in love. I can't wait for the next update . Hoping to finish the book soon. 

Read all your completed books here in 1 week, thank you so much, each of them is unique and all of them are so brilliant, full of life, hope, compassion and individuality. Thanks a lot!

The Bet is going through final round of edits as I'm getting ready to self-publish it in 2026!
          
          I have uploaded the re-written chapters 1-9 since those were in most desperate need of fixing. Because of this, the story from chapter 10 forward will have mistakes in details, but I will clean them up as I finish the edits, so please bare with me.
          
          Also, since GPAs and other American school stuff are foreign to me, please feel free to correct me in the comments if I have made mistakes with them, or am writing them grammatically incorrectly! 
          
          Nic and Jax are being aged up, so the removed sex scenes will return once the edits are complete!
          
          Let's hope nothing comes in my way, and the new, bigger, better, shinier, and sexier version of this story will be available as eBook and physical books before Summer 2026!

Hi dolly, Ive loved the mouse and the wolf books forever and it’s been a constant reread. I’ve seen that you release paperbacks of some of your other books and I’m begging for you to consider releasing paperbacks of this series. Consider my money yours. And I’m sure a lot of others would love this too :)  

Hello how are you?
          

I'm quickly dropping in to ask, is Acceptance chapter 29 working normally for you guys? I fear it's glitching for some people =') It's a completely new chapter that I had to move to the right spot between ch 28 and 30 and that may cause problems for some readers

I've updated the Shop page on my website, which now includes handy links to where Acceptance and Save Me 1 can be bought :3
