Mainly, the recurring pattern of books on wattpad. The same cliché bad boys, the soft girl was a little boring to read and the way a girl is portrayed was unlikable. So, I took it as a challenge and wanted people to know there are other kinds of stories than the same repetitive ones.
The whole plot was ready before I even started writing. What actually was difficult was being consistent on updates. I wanted to write but there were a lot of things going on in my life and I couldn't focus on writing.
What many wattpad books forget is the character development or even a relationship development. I loved writing my main characters' growing relation and also how they individually developed especially the female lead.
The response has been good. I love every person who has supported me. I still feel there is a lack of exposure for my book, I hope people notice it and give it a try.
stand alone
Mainly I would morals. I have incorporated many such things in my characters which show their moral and ethics.
I would tell them if you are really into that story, just focus on that one. Do not pressure yourself with 2 or 3 books at once. And another thing, at least upload half of your book before promoting because I know we get demotivated when people don't read your work even after we ask them to.
Same thing I said earlier, my morals. I have my characters based on the same morals as I've been living with.
The non cliché aspect, the female lead is in a gang and not the guy. The male lead is not a bad boy but is popular. The female lead isn't a badass just because she is in a gang, she is traumatized and that reflects in her character. There are many more things and people would find them once they read the story.
I do have future projects. I'm really excited for them. I have 2 stand alones and a trilogy. I'm focusing on a stand alone right now.

The Nost
Jack and Ann have taken me on a great adventure full of mystery and incredible technology, I hope you'll join us. Three chapters will post each week in December 2021 and January 2022. The journey will come to a close on January 31. I know you have a lot of reading choices, but if you have space left in your literary adventure cup, please join Jack and Ann as 2021 turns into 2022, happy reading! The demon whispers inside Jack’s mind. “They are not worthy, they are cattle, these new humans you covet. The so-called creator has betrayed you, replaced you with these organic imitations. Slaughter them all.” It’s funny, not in a ha-ha funny way, but a sad, my madness doesn’t make sense type of way, Jack thinks, because wasn’t he human? Worse still, the voice comes with impulses that are hard to resist. Violence usually ensues. That’s why he joined the military. A way to channel his urges into mind-numbing physical effort and war. It works for a time. But alcohol and fighting can only carry on for so long. Finally, he realizes, his only way out is suicide. But when he opens his eyes, he’s in the In-Between. The creator has other plans for him, and she won’t take no for an answer. Apparently, this isn’t his first life and if he doesn’t free her from her prison, it won’t be his last. His curse is to be reborn without end, without rest, without memory. Only madness. Now Jack is on the run from forces he doesn’t understand. It’s a new world. The mundane replaced by ethereal artificial intelligence, spontaneous virtual realities, and homicidal bible salesmen. But the creator promises the demon’s voice will disappear as soon as he finds the right girl, the right bond. After that, they just have to escape the clutches of those who hunt them, find the Isle of Song, and free the creator from her prison. Or maybe this time, in this life, Jack will figure out what true freedom is. Come along on this action-packed thriller as Jack fights to remember who he is, tries to end an eternal war, and atone for sins he doesn’t remember…yet.
