"That’s the one trouble with this country: everything, weather, all, hangs on too long. Like our rivers, our land: opaque, slow, violent; shaping and creating the life of man in its implacable and brooding image."
― William Faulkner, As I Lay Dying

Reading matters
Why does fiction matter?
Because stories can sharpen the way we understand other people.
A meta-analysis found that reading fiction has a small but positive effect on social cognition. Including our ability to interpret emotions, motives, and inner lives.

Thank you so much.
His comment was, "Are you a natural blonde, or are you pretending to be one?"
Thank you for your support.
One of those who recently bought my book tried to flirt with me, and in doing so, made a discriminatory comment about my hair.
Please do not associate book purchases with the author’s physical appearance. I have struggled a lot with this, and I don’t want it anymore. Buy my book genuinely.

Finished writing that book for today.

Another great review for The Hidden Face on Rakuten Kobo! More ways to go!
Thank you, unknown, silent readers, whoever you are, I don't know. You literally CAN'T IMAGINE how much it matters.

Most people focus on the extent of the betrayal, when perhaps what matters is the way it is carried out. Judas’s kiss doesn’t have to be a literal kiss. It can be hug, a reassuring word, a convincing act, an ‘I don’t know, the others do.’ Nothing has changed since then.

All your effort went to waste. They learned nothing down here. They deceive, they wrong others, they conspire, everything for that stupid profit. As if they’ll take it with them. Six feet is all they’ll get.
Fortunately, you opened the gate for the very few of us.

A new reader of The Hidden Face, who's currently in the hospital, told me he bought my book yesterday and that it’s been great company. He sits on the hospital balcony with the local cats and reads. He loved the first chapter. I replied, “Just wait until you see what comes next…”
#books
Yes, thank you. I won't stop.
Authors, I'm sure you understand. I’m struggling to keep up with promoting The Hidden Face because all my time goes into writing my second book. It doesn’t need much promotion cause I know it’s a strong work, but still, some promotion is necessary.
#books
There’s a circle of Hidden Facers who love my book so much that they obsessively like and comment about The Hidden Face on other platforms every day.
Amazing humans to thank enough.

It’s 12 at night, and I’ve just finished the next part of my new book for today. And somehow, time vanishes like this.
I’m so glad that, after such a long time, life has finally given me the chance to dive back into my imagination.
Mystery. Suspense. Questionable realms. My signature.

Unfairly treated by society?
There is something that most people overlook: the road that goes up and the road that goes down are ΤΗΕ SAME ROAD.

I am a person who lives in my imagination 24 hours a day. I wake from the imagination of my dreams and step straight into the imagination of my waking mind.

Can we please stop filling out forms for interviews and appointments for the 10th da..dime time? It’s so… systemic, and I’m not very systemic-friendly, you know.
Ok, let's be more polite.
Can employers stop asking, "Why do you want to work here?"
