Hey lovelies, 
          	
          	Sorry, I missed updates for BBC last week. Hubby had a spontaneous couple of weeks off work and I made the most of it (having him take care of the baby) so I could finish my 'for June' rewrite -- which is the rough draft I'm posting here as JUST ANOTHER LOVE STORY. 
          	
          	I've been updating it one chapter a day here till it's done and just today, I posted chapter 17! So there's a lot of story on here already. It's something I hope you'll enjoy reading as much as the original version that won a romance Wattys back in 2020. Would love your final thoughts on the story when it's done!

I need to say this and I don't know where to say it... but yay! I just finished the rewrite of 'for June'! That's right. I just typed the last word in the epilogue!
          
          For the next little while, I'll publish one chapter a day (of the draft) to see whether or not you like the story. 
          
          Okay, now bye. I'm gonna go away for a moment and let this sink in and try not to cry... 
          I started the first version of this story back in 2014... 2014!
          
          Ten years and I finally feel like I'm done. (I know real work begins at editing, but I feel like I've passed a huge hurdle...)

Woke up to see two of my books added to Ambassadors profile reading lists this morning. 
          
          THE GOD CODEX, a Watty winning sci-fi was added to their ‘The Speculative Fiction Experience’ list by @action. TYSM for this, team! Your support means a lot.

          THE MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF DEVI DHUNGEL also got added to the ‘Ambassadors’ Monthly Pick’ list by @humor profile, so thank you for that too!

          Here’s hoping new readers will find these stories! ❤️

Ok, time for a real chat. Lately, I've been struggling with my motivation to write. It's become near impossible to get reads these day, and I feel like I'm just in my murky corner of Wattpad world, hoping and praying to be seen by readers who might enjoy the stories I have to offer. And I know it's not just me, this feeling of being invisible on here right now. 
          
          So I wanted to say, if you're reading any of my works, if you're someone who recently found my page/stories, or you've been here a while and enjoy the stories I offer, THANK YOU beyond words! 
          
          I have two ongoing WIPs here: 
          1) BADBOY CARTER is my experimental CEO-Romance with my twist on it, and 
          2) JUST ANOTHER LOVE STORY is my revamped version of the Watty-winning romance, 'FOR JUNE' -- something I'm planning to self-publish next year. 
          
          A new chapter for JALS dropped today, and another will drop on Monday. And I'm slowly working on the Tuesday chapter of BBC. 
          
          (Confession: I'm so nervous that this new version of 'for June' isn't as good as the original now... but here it is anyway.)

@Divyansh16 oh no, you focus on you studies! That’s more important. Reading and especially reading ongoing drafts can wait. Honestly. You’ve been a  great friend and reader over the years. I don’t want you to feel bad. You focus on you and take care. Go ace your studies! 
            
            Wattpad will be here and likely I too, so no worries. :)

@evacharya Hiiii! I have been so busy lately that I don't wish to read. It's last year of my Post graduation, and schedules are packed. I do get your notifications its just like that, for some few days, I'm not enjoying reading at all. I feel sleepy, thats why I'm not reading that much like before. 
            
            And yes Wattpad has become very lonely

Hi Wattpad family!
          
          I'm dropping in to say I've just posted a 'new' story -- which is to say, I've just posted some sample chapters of the new version of FOR JUNE to see how you like it. 
          
          Since the beginning of this year, I've worked on the rewrite in what little time I can find between my toddler and real-life duties. I'm planning to self-publish this book in 2025 and want to test out the new story/plot. 
          
          If you could help this poor writer out and give me your valuable feedback to make this a better story, that'd be so AWESOME! 
          
          Can't thank you enough. And here's hoping you like the new version as much as the old.

Hey hey Lovelies,
          
          The next chapter of BADBOY CARTER is already scheduled to drop 5th Nov at 9 AM EST time. And I'm working on the following week's chapter. 
          
          Hope you're eager to see what Colton makes of Avery and this interview he wanted to get out of. 
          
          Going forward, I'm going to endeavour to drop a chapter a week on Tuesdays. 
          Can't wait for you to enjoy this story. I always welcome feedback and comments!

Oh yeah, I bit the bullet! Writing this slowly on the side is helping me make progress on my novel rewrite! And I desperately want to finish that asap so I can prep for query or self publishing.

Hey Eva! Thank you so much for contributing to my research project on the Representation of Indian Queer characters on Wattpad. Your responses were incredibly insightful and after reading a bit of Devi Dhungel's awesome story, I can totally see why.
          
          Happy Diwali to you (if you celebrate it) and I wish that your stories and life find prosperity and good fortune this year :)

Of course, we can always do with more diversity in everything and I hope this Nepali’s perspective helped. 
            
            And Happy Diwali to you too!

It’s a wonderful morning (despite the rain!). 
          THE MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF DEVI DHUNGEL made it to Round 3 if The Ambys, an ambassador run annual contest, completely voluntary. Until last year I didn’t know about this contest so when I heard friends mention it this year, I jumped at the chance to enter. Glad I did. 
          
          For great read recommendations, I’d say check out the recent WATTYS2024 shortlist and The Ambys Round 3 qualifiers. Yours truly is on both! 
          
          What a delightful mad week this has been. 
          Congratulations to all the Round 3 authors. And best of luck with the next round.
          
          Haven’t given this mad cosy mystery with Aussie flair a chance? What are you waiting for?  it’s an enjoyable work, I swear.
