Hi there,
          
          It’s been a crazy holiday season and I hope you’re all enjoying the festivities that the year end always brings! I know I have been. I just came back from holidays with the family—which is why I missed the last two Tuesday updates for BADBOY CARTER.
          
          But I hope you’re ready for the next chapter, from our boy Colton. It’s just dropped.
          
          What a way to bring the year to an end really. I love writing stories that I’m excited to explore and I’m so excited to see how this story will develop. 
          
          Thank you for reading my stories this year! I wish you and yours a HAPPY NEW YEAR. May you achieve your goals and chase those dreams in 2025. I know I will be.
          
          I’m currently editing JUST ANOTHER LOVE STORY (working title only) for publishing next year. So my 2025 already feels exciting. 
          
          Alas, here’s the latest chapter of BBC.
          
          Happy New Year!

And it’s done. JUST ANOTHER LOVE STORY is finished. There was only the prologue scheduled to drop tomorrow but I’m feeling impatient, so I decided to drop it today. 
          
          Hope you enjoyed Shashank and Junkiri’s story with me. 
          
          If you have any thoughts/feedback on the whole, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment either in the book itself or here. As I head into edit mode, I’ll be sure to take feedback and apply any which applies to make this story better. 
          
          Thank you so much for reading this story. 
          
          Also, on a sly news, the work for cover for the book release (under a new title—because ‘Just Another Love Story’ was a placeholder) is slowly getting under way. If you’d like to see how my journey into self publishing goes and support me, please follow me on my socials (same handle as here) and starting 2025, I’ll be sharing tidbits about it.

OMG, STONE 2 STONE, a futuristic retelling of Medusa, has been hovering on 1996 reads for a while now and I just need 4 more reads before it reaches 2k reads. 
          
          Somebody put me out of my misery, please. It's an entertaining take on Medusa, I swear!

          Also, the next chapter for BADBOY CARTER is already scheduled for tomorrow, so watch out for that.

Huge congratulations to all the Wattys winners today but specially to @EmilyMorgans for her WICKED HEART, @EliBees for A MUSE HER, and AJ (@bigfivedonaldduckfan) for #WitchcraftWednesday! ❤️

Guess what? I just finished scheduling the rest of the chapter drops for JUST ANOTHER LOVE STORY!
          
          The last of the chapters will drop next Saturday! So close. I can't wait to see what you think of the whole story. I'm about to start editing it on the Xmas holidays, in prep of publishing next year, and I'd love to hear your thoughts/feedback on how I can make it better.

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!

          In the meantime, I'm slipping back into BBC and trying to get next week's chapter finished on time.

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.

          And…
          
          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.)
