Hey there, my wonderful readers! 🌟
First of all, let me start by saying a huge THANK YOU to each and every one of you for being so amazing and supportive during this whirlwind of a year. If you've been keeping up with me, you already know that things have been a bit crazy on my end (in the best way possible, of course). For those who are new here—welcome! Grab a cup of coffee (or tea, if that's more your vibe) and settle in, because I’ve got some exciting updates for you.
The One-Book-A-Month Journey 🎉
Yes, you read that right! I've been on this wild, ambitious ride of releasing a book every single month. And let me tell you, it's been equal parts exhilarating and exhausting. I still can’t believe I’m pulling this off, but it’s all because of the energy I get from YOU. The messages, reviews, and DMs I've been receiving from you all are what keep me going. Every comment that says, "I couldn’t put your book down!" or "When’s the next one coming?" makes my writer's heart soar. Seriously, you are the reason I can do this.
So, how has the process been, you ask? Picture this: a lot of late-night writing sessions, an embarrassing amount of coffee (we’re talking cups numbering in the dozens), and some epic writing playlists. I’ve pretty much become a human writing machine. 😅 But in all honesty, it’s been incredibly fulfilling. Getting into the groove of writing at this pace has pushed me to grow, both as a writer and a storyteller. I feel like I’m finding new depths to my creativity that I never knew existed!
If you’ve missed any of the latest releases, don’t worry—I’ll drop links below so you can catch up. I’ve been experimenting with different genres lately, so whether you’re into mystery, romance, or even a bit of sci-fi, there’s a little something for everyone in my recent catalog.
Traveling and Writing—The Dream Combo! ✈️📝
Oh, and did I mention I’ve been traveling like a madwoman? Yep, I’ve been taking my laptop along for the ride, visiting new places, and soaking up all kinds of inspiration. It’s been the best of both worlds—getting to explore new cities while keeping up with my writing schedule.
Let’s talk highlights: I spent a magical few weeks in Paris (I know, how cliché, right?), and it was everything you’d imagine and more. There’s something about walking along the Seine, sipping wine at a cozy café, and people-watching that just fuels creativity. I swear, I came back from that trip with a whole notebook full of ideas. The art, the history, the people—I felt like a sponge soaking it all in.
Then, there was my whirlwind trip to Bali, which was an absolute dream. Picture this: I’m sitting in a bamboo hut overlooking the ocean, laptop in hand, listening to the waves crash as I write. Yes, it was as relaxing as it sounds. Bali’s energy is so calming, and it was the perfect place to unwind while still getting in some solid writing time. Plus, the food? Don’t even get me started. The fresh fruit, the amazing local dishes—let’s just say I had to work off all those indulgences with plenty of beach walks. 😎
And now? Well, I’m currently writing this from a cozy little Airbnb in the heart of Tokyo! I’ve been a fan of Japan for the longest time, and being here has been a surreal experience. The energy of this city is so electric, and I’ve been hopping between traditional tea houses and the bustling Shibuya streets for inspiration. Who knows? Maybe a book set in Tokyo will be in the works soon... Stay tuned!
What's Coming Next? 👀
Okay, so enough about my travels—let’s get back to the books! I’ve got some super exciting projects coming up that I can’t wait to share with you. Next month’s release is a bit of a passion project for me. I won’t spoil too much, but let’s just say it’s a heartwarming romance with a twist, set against the backdrop of an unexpected location. I know, vague, right? But trust me, it’s going to be a rollercoaster of emotions, and I think you’ll love it.
On top of that, I’ve been dabbling in some ghostwriting projects as well. It’s been such an interesting shift to work behind the scenes, helping other writers bring their stories to life. It’s like a fun little secret knowing there are books out there that I’ve helped shape, even though my name isn’t on the cover. It’s also been a great way to stay creative in between my own writing deadlines.
A Little Life Update 🌸
In the midst of all the book writing and traveling, I’ve been trying (keyword: trying) to strike a balance and take care of myself. Writing nonstop can be a bit draining, so I’ve been making time for little self-care rituals. Whether it's a relaxing bubble bath, a good book (yes, I read in my downtime too!), or just catching up on my favorite Netflix shows, it’s all about balance, right?
I’ve also been making a point to stay connected with friends and family, even while hopping from one timezone to the next. It’s not always easy, but I’ve learned to treasure those little FaceTime chats and late-night texts. You’ve got to keep your people close, even when you’re chasing your dreams.
Let’s Keep the Conversation Going 💬
So, that’s the scoop on my life at the moment! I’d love to hear from you—what have you been up to? Any book recommendations, travel tips, or self-care rituals you swear by? Drop me a comment or slide into my DMs. Let’s keep the conversation going, because honestly, connecting with you all is the best part of this journey.
Until next time, keep dreaming big and chasing your passions. You’ve got this!
Much love,
Ovni ✨
