Hey sis 
          
          I just wanted to tell you something because you’re honestly the first person I feel like sharing this with.
          
          Today I released one chapter each from Only A Vampire Can Love You Forever and House of Serpents and Shadows… and we crossed 50+ comments on the first chapter of Vampire.
          
          It might sound small, but for me, as a new and young author, it feels huge. And somewhere, I feel like your guidance, your presence, and the way you inspire me played a part in that.
          
          You’ve always felt like an elder sister in this writing journey — someone I look up to, learn from, and silently try to make proud.
          
          Thank you for inspiring me to keep writing, even when I doubt myself. I’m still growing, but I promise I’ll keep improving.
          
          Just wanted to share my little win with you 
           Please read when you get free...

            My dearest didi  [ elder sister in Indian language ]
            
            Honestly I don’t even know where to begin… because “thank you” feels too small for everything you’ve done for me.
            
            You came into my writing journey like a blessing I didn’t even know I was praying for. When I doubted my words, you believed in them. When I felt insecure, you reminded me why I started. When I wanted to give up, you gently pushed me forward instead of letting me fall behind.
            
            You never treated me like just another writer. You treated me like your own little sister. You corrected me with patience, encouraged me with love, and guided me without ever making me feel small. That’s something so rare. So precious.
            
            Every piece of advice you gave, every late-night message, every “you can do this” — I carry it with me. You don’t just help me improve my stories… you help me grow as a person.
            
            Sometimes I wonder what I did to deserve someone like you in my life. You celebrate my smallest achievements like they’re your own. You read my messy drafts. You hype my ideas. You support me even when I’m overthinking everything.
            
            If one day people love my stories… if one day I become the writer I dream of becoming… a part of that success will always belong to you.
            
            You are not just my mentor.
            You are not just my inspiration.
            You are my safe place in this chaotic writing world.
            
            I’m so grateful for you. For your kindness. For your time. For your belief in me.
            
            No matter how far I go, I will always remember who held my hand at the beginning.
            
            I love you so much, didi. Thank you for being my guiding star. ✨
            
            Forever your little sister.

@Shadowedheart_writes Well, to be honest, I don't feel like I have a 'big' fandom yet, especially if you compare me to the books with millions of reads! But here is the thing: numbers aren’t everything. I’d rather have a few hundred readers who truly care about my story—and sweet souls like you who I can actually talk to—than a million 'ghost' readers who never engage. We are all rookies at some point, and I’ll never be too big to help a fellow writer. We’re all in this together! ✨

So yes before keeping down the phone and drifting back to my sleep! I need to announce this. 
          
          80 freaking comments on AGAINST THE WHISTLE within one hour. First shock ლ⁠(⁠^⁠o⁠^⁠ლ⁠)
          
          Added to 6 more reading lists. Second shock. ლ⁠(⁠^⁠o⁠^⁠ლ⁠)
          
          And yeah, no one talking about the song I chose for Isla 
          "Cinnamon girl" by lana del ray. Third shock. (Insert an angry emoji) (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

I am so, so sorry for the radio silence! My ankle was in rough shape, and I’ve basically been in a painkiller-induced haze, disconnected from the world. (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)But I’m finally back and feeling human again!
          As promised, new chapters are officially LIVE. ♪⁠┌⁠|⁠∵⁠|⁠┘⁠♪(⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)
          
          FAIR WARNING: they might be a little technical with some football terms, but I promise the tension makes up for it. Check out this sneak peek:
          
          "But before I could process the danger, he hooked his arms under my thighs and hoisted me up. I instinctively wrapped my legs around his waist—why?— my fingers gripping his shoulders as he carried me through the heavy metal door of the locker room."
          
          Go read and let me know what you think! It's good to be back. 
          
          ~El♥️✨
