Stepping Out Of Your Comfort Zone
How often and how easily do you take steps out of your comfort zone? I haven’t set any resolutions at the beginning of 2023, but I decided where my focus will be this year. Or my “word of the year”, as people often put it. GROWTH Which means constantly learning and evolving. Trying new things,…
My second book is coming out next month
“You know what, life is not fair, and it can throw a lot of crap at you when you least expect it. But sometimes, it gives you pretty awesome things too—amazing people, fascinating experiences. I guess the trick is to try and focus on that. To celebrate what you gain instead of dwelling on what…
Author Spotlight: Meet Jessica Cantwell
One of my favorite fantasy reads this year was The Realm Saga by Jessica Cantwell. A beautifully crafted parallel world full of mythical creatures and people with supernatural abilities. Very likeable characters you easily get attached to. Adventure, action, romance–these books have it all. Jessica Cantwell, the incredibly talented author of this amazing trilogy, has…
Why Do I Write?
There are many reasons. I’ve always wanted to write, and when I finally started, it felt so right that I almost regretted missing all those years. I’m saying ‘almost’ because I don’t really regret anything. The way my life went, the things I had to go through, and the lessons I learned, all of this…
Writing For An Anthology

Become Your Own Superfan
I got a two-star review on Goodreads. It didn’t have any text attached to it. So I don’t know what exactly the person who read my book (I do hope that they actually read the book) didn’t like about it, or what they found wrong with it. It felt strange. It didn’t really upset me,…
5 Things You Need To Ditch On The Road To Success
We all have our own definition of success. We have different goals, we have different dreams and choose our own paths to follow them. For someone, being successful is getting a new job or building the career of their dreams. For others, it’s buying a house. Or becoming a bestselling author. Or even publishing just…
Are You Proud Of Yourself?
“You should be proud of yourself,” my husband said. “You wrote a book.” It was nice to hear. It meant a lot. He went on to tell me how much I have achieved and how proud he was of me. I keep thinking about his words. Something was bothering me. And I realized what it…
Finding Strength In Your Weakness
LIfe is tough. Let’s admit it. Each and every one of us is fighting battles of our own, and going through certain struggles that in most cases are not even visible to people around us. First of all, because we don’t like to share them. I mean, who wants to admit their weaknesses? Besides, we…
