ଘ(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭* ੈ♡‧₊˚  With a Happy New Year comes a happy (?) new short story!
          
          I just published "Ridiculous People." (2850-ish words) for the Wuthering Heights Movie Reimagining Contest. It's a modern take on Catherine and Heathcliff's romance that I hope y'all will enjoy and that I won't cringe at when I reread it in a few years.
          
          ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥
          
          Also, on a deeply unserious note -- I read Wuthering Heights for the first time in preparation for this contest and omg?? It checks all of the Wattpad Dark Romance boxes? Heathcliff is hot, brooding, rich, and an objectively terrible person to everyone except (and sometimes including) Catherine? The entire story could've been solved if the two mains had just ONE (1) honest, adult conversation? Catherine reminds me of countless female protagonists who dominate in this space, borderline sufferable and disconnected from reality, but still strangely compelling and sympathetic in their tragedy??
          
          I thought I was tweaking when I was reading it, like - the Brontë sisters were popping tf off back in the mid-1800s. I mean, how much of the modern romance genre do we owe to our Gothic Queens?
          
          Final Conclusion: Emily Brontë walked (the moors) so the Toxic BookTok girlypops could run.

          may you be happy, healthy, and well in 2026.

Hi ,you'all

I love your stories, if you ever turn any of them into books im sold

Girlllll seeing Nigerian names in your books make me super happy.  
          I love the diversity❤️

Hey, happy weekend! How are you feeling today? Your writing is truly incredible, I'm a big fan of your storytelling. If you're open to it, I'd love to share some ideas that could make your stories even more captivating. Could we connect on Discord or another platform to chat more?

As I’m sure you know, I’m a fan of your work! So much so, that I felt inspired to write a story of my own, “A New Dawn”. I’d be so grateful if you could read the first couple chapters of what I’ve written, and give me your honest opinions and critiques. Your word flow and the way you construct details to make a visual are amazing so it would literally be the best thing ever to have you go over what I’ve written, should you feel like it   NO PRESSURE THOUGH 

Hello,

ଘ(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭* ੈ♡‧₊˚ The last chapter of ❦ SONGS OF OURSELVES (8k words!!) is live!!!
          
          Thank YOU for joining me (and Sunkanmi and Xosa) on this journey! It's been a long six years. Whew.
          
          I considered splitting it into two, like I mentioned in my last announcement, but it just flows better as a complete piece. I would say more about the conclusion here, however I think the end speaks for itself.
          
          I also included a lengthy author's note as a post mortem to address some housekeeping details and provide an open space for any SOS specific questions or conversations.
          
          There's also a custom Songs of Ourselves playlist (of course) for your hearing pleasure.
          
          ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥
          
          Last reminder that this final chapter ("pear") is spicier than normal. Nothing too crazy or explicit (similar vibes to *that* scene when they're fake-dating in front of Xosa's death cult), but I didn't want anyone to be caught off guard by it.
          
          At this point though, I don't think anyone who's still reading is going to mind lol.
