How I got to writing"Almost Didn't Happen"
I never set out with the idea of becoming an writer—it began with a need to express my emotions. At times, life hands us feelings too heavy or too complex to keep inside, and writing became the only way for me to make sense of them. That’s how Luna, Milo, and Nila came to life—not just as characters, but as reflections of my own thoughts and experiences. They started as pieces of heartbreak, friendship, and growth, and soon I realized they need to be written down.
What began as scattered notes and late-night reflections slowly grew into chapters, and then into a book. Through writing, I found a way to transform private emotions into a story others could connect with. This book is more than just fiction—it’s a reflection of the raw, messy, and deeply human experiences that shape us all. At its heart, it’s my way of sharing the laughter, ache, and beauty that come with loving, losing, and finding yourself along the way.
About me!

Here you'll find warm conversations, story updates and a little piece of my writer's soul!
Writing has been my way of making sense of the world and all the messy, beautiful emotions that come with being human.
"Almost Didn't Happen" is my first big adventure into sharing my stories with the world, and honestly? I'm both terrified and excited. This story came from those late-night thoughts about missed connections and second chances.
When I'm not crafting love stories, you'll find me with a cup of tea, probably overthinking character development, or scrolling through Pinterest for story inspiration. I believe every story deserves to be told with warmth and heart.xo
My favourite Books & Quote
This is the book I go back to again and again. It’s raw, vulnerable, and makes me think about how complicated human connection really is. Marianne and Connell’s relationship feels so real that I often forget they’re fictional—it’s like watching two people grow up, stumble, and circle back to each other in ways that feel both painful and comforting.
Emily Henry just knows how to balance heartache and humor. Happy Place gave me both a cozy, swoony romance and a bittersweet reminder that love doesn’t always look the way we expect. It made me think about friendship, nostalgia, and what it means to find joy in the present moment.
This book is unsettling, but that’s exactly why I like it. It makes me question the meaning of existence and how much (or how little) emotions guide our choices. It’s not a warm book—it’s cold, detached, and thought-provoking in a way that lingers.
This book holds a special place in my heart because my brother gave it to me after a moment in my life that shook me. The poetry carried me when I felt like I was falling apart—it was like someone wrote down all the things I couldn’t say out loud. I didn’t love the last chapter, but the rest reminded me of how healing words can be.
This short novel feels like stepping into a dream. Márquez’s writing is always rich and layered, but here it’s also intimate and full of longing. It’s about desire, secrecy, and the quiet ways people search for themselves, even later in life. I love how it lingers in the mind long after you finish.
