As a new writer, I'm still learning how to balance creativity and exhaustion. I recently took a short break—not because I lost interest, but because I needed it. What happened the other day left me drained to the point na sinubukan ko magsulat pero hindi ko magawa kasi natatakot ako na baka i-compare na naman siya sa ibang story, and stepping back gave me the space to breathe, reflect, and regain my energy.
          
          I'm sorry for the pause and for the silence it may have caused.
          
          That time away reminded me why I started writing in the first place. I'm slowly finding my rhythm again, and I want you to know that I'm committed to continuing this journey that I started. Babawi ako. I'm coming back with renewed motivation and a clearer heart. Thank you for your patience and for staying with me while I'm still growing, learning, and finding my voice as a writer.
          
          Para makabawi ako, here are the things na aabangan niyo sakin:
          
          1. Elijah Orion Hale (Ethan's sibling) will finally have his own story. Hindi ito sequel ng Under the Influence, but it will still carry subtle connections for readers who read the Love Beyond the Click.
          
          2. Magkasabay kong isusulat ang story ni Elijah at ni Yohan. Once Caught Between Us ends, officially magsisimula na din ang story ni Martin.
          
          3. Under the Influence is planned to have 7 books, each focusing on different stories while still being connected in the same world.

Author when po next update? huhu

hayaan mo po sila authornim, basta ako laging nag aabang ng update mo 
          btw patanong naman po kay dave kung nag papasuyo ba siya kay yohan? jealousy jealousy na kasi si yohan deserve naman ni yohan ng very very slight hahhhaa I love you yohan 

Open naman po ako to any criticisms or comments about my work, pero not to the point na ikinukumpara na po siya sa ibang libro… that doesn't sound right. Uulitin ko po, I'm still a new writer—less than a year into this journey—but that doesn't mean I'm closed off to critique. Sa kabilang banda, bukas po ako ng buong-buo sa mga ganung klaseng komento. I welcome it because I truly believe constructive feedback helps me grow and become a better writer.
          
          I'm really trying to pour my own feelings into my writing and slowly build a style that's genuinely mine. Kaya siguro mas mabigat at masakit sa dibdib nung may nabasa akong hindi magandang comment about my work—lalo na kung ikinumpara siya sa ibang stories. It's not that I can't accept criticism—I actually want it to help me. But hearing comparisons like that hits differently, parang nakaka-drain at nakakaiyak, because it feels like my effort and individuality are being overlooked. I just want to be appreciated for the style I'm trying to develop, no matter how new or imperfect it still is.
          
          It gets really draining, as if instead of helping me grow, it slowly kills my motivation because I'm being judged based on standards that aren't mine.
          
          Nakakapagod tuloy magsulat HAHA.

First time magbibigay ng comment ang tao na toh HAHAHAHHA. Kidding aside? Kidding aside daw? Going back to honolulu mawuie mawuie HAHAHHAHAHA charot. Silent reader ako pero gusto ko lang magbitaw ng salita (na para bang isa akong presidente) ayon na nga sobrang daming realization lang sa Chapter 23 ng CBU I like the attiuand maturity of Yohan. Come to think of it (hala nag-english) so ayon na nga sinasabi ko, sobrang hirap kapag may kaibigan ka na sobrang "na-spoiled or na baby" pero kudos to Yohan nagawa niyang sabihin 'yung kailangan niyang sabihin for Kian to understand his actions. Overall sobrang galing talaga author I love youuu sana hindi mo kami iwan!

Kaya pala hindi pwede si Lucas at Yohan kasi parehas silang bb gurl HAHAHAHHAHA 

ANNOUNCEMENT!
          
          The 3rd installment of Under the Influence is almost here… and it's called "Drowning Under Their Shadow." 
          
          Who do you think will be dragged into the depths this time? Who's hiding behind the shadows, and whose secrets are finally coming to light?
          
          Comment your guesses… but beware: the truth might just drown you.
