What the Mountains Keep is finally beginning. ️
          
          A slow-burn story about grief, healing, survival, and two men who were never supposed to understand each other as deeply as they do.
          
          Set in the mountain town of Breckenridge, this story follows Tay Tawan Vihokratana, a former Marine trying to outrun the ghosts he brought home from war, and New Thitipoom Teechapaikhun, a trauma and palliative care PA arriving in town with grief stitched into every part of him.
          
          They clash first. Constantly.
          
          But somewhere between snowstorms, emergency calls, late-night drives, and quiet moments neither of them knows how to name, something begins to change.
          
          See you all in Breckenridge soon. ❄️

About my current stories:
          
          Paper Planes has honestly been a little difficult for me lately. I’ve been struggling with how I want the story to move forward because I really care about giving it the ending and development it deserves. I don’t want to rush it or force updates that don’t feel right just for the sake of posting. So I’m taking a little more time to think things through properly, and I promise I’m trying my best to finish it in a way that feels meaningful and satisfying.
          
          As for the second part of Code Blue Hearts, that one is also taking longer than expected because work has been exhausting lately and I’ve been very caught up with real life. By the time I sit down to write, my brain is usually already half asleep  But please know I haven’t abandoned it at all. I still love these stories and these characters so much, and I’m doing my best to return to regular updates again.
          
          Thank you for always being patient with me, supporting my stories, screaming over chapters, and staying with me even during slower periods. It genuinely means more than you know  Your support is honestly one of the biggest reasons I still love writing as much as I do.

Hi loves 
          
          I’ve been quietly working on a few new stories lately, and honestly… I think I now have around 2–3 stories almost ready to start posting  But before I decide which one comes first, I really want your opinions because your excitement always helps me choose what to focus on the most.
          
          All of them are TayNew stories, but with completely different professions, dynamics, and vibes:
          
           Mafia × K-pop Singer
           Bar Owner × Doctor (small town romance)
           CEO × Employee
           CEO × Prince
           CEO × Firefighter
           Student × Student
           Student × Mafia
          
          Some are soft and emotional, some are chaotic, some are intense, and some are pure comfort stories 
          
          Please tell me in the comments which one you want to read first because I genuinely cannot decide anymore. I’ll be checking all the comments carefully before deciding the posting order 
          
          And yes — I promise a new story WILL be coming on June 1st 
          
          Please comment which story you want first

I missed your double triple update 

I honestly don’t even know how to put this into words.
          
          Orbit Between Floors reaching 7,000 reads and Code Blue Hearts hitting 6,000 reads feels unreal. What started as late-night thoughts, messy drafts, and emotions I wasn’t sure anyone would understand somehow found their way to so many of you.
          
          Thank you for reading, voting, commenting, bookmarking, and quietly coming back for more.

Every notification, every message, every little interaction reminds me why I keep writing even when self-doubt gets loud.
          
          These stories exist because of you. Your support means more than numbers on a screen — it means connection, and that’s everything.
          
          From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being here and for staying. There’s so much more to come, and I’m grateful you’re taking this journey with me ✨

I’m honestly still trying to process this. Seeing Code Blue Hearts reach #1 in the #taynew hashtag feels surreal — and incredibly humbling.

          5,000 READS?! I’M ACTUALLY LOSING MY MIND
