I've always thought that mafia-Romance books were interesting. I read a few when I first came to Wattpad back in 2012, but was no where near the skill I am today to execute one of my own properly.
So this idea for Thin I've went through A LOT of changes. I had been watching Season 2 of Fargo and got inspired by the episode when Kirsten Dunst's character kills a man's with her car. I wanted that to be someone in the mafia that she killed and my MC gets wrapped in the family that way. Clearly that didn't happen, and after several rewrites, I ended up where I am now.

I struggled making my version of the mafia seem real. As if the events could REALLY happen and would be appropriate in that environment. It was also a bit difficult working on the abuse scenes. I didn't want them overly graphic or too weak to seem emotionally grabbing.

I love writing the children into my story and I know my readers hate him, but I really enjoyed writing Adrian's POV. He has a bunch of layers and if you can look past the hate, you can see it. Plus, it's interesting to see the response to his actions, especially for new readers. I also really enjoyed creating my plot twists. I have a few in the works, and I can't wait to reveal them.

I tell them all the time that I still can't believe that they really love it, but they do! Haha. It's been a great response.
I want to do a series, but we will see. More yes than no.
Everything you do is a risk. Just make sure you're taking the right risks.

DO ALL OR MOST RESEARCH BEFORE YOU START THAT FIRST CHAPTER!! Figure out your characters. I don't mean just their names or where they're from, I mean like, what they like, relationships, nicknames, age, age in relation to other characters, timelines, and why they do what they do.

I read a lot of articles about how to complete a book before I wrote this and that helped too.
Read! Live! Experience! It's always good to pull from what you know and don't be afraid to put a piece of yourself into the story.
It makes writing flow so much smoother.
Her love for children. That's as much as I'd like to reveal haha.
?
The fact that it's a BWWM story that gives insight to multiple POV.

Always, my brain literally comes up with one a day. Haha! A mystery/thriller novel! I'm hoping to have it out by this December!

The Ancient Tree's Journey
On a planet far away from Earth, an ancient tree lives inside a beautiful forest. When the tree realises that its life is coming to an end, it creates a seed without a soul. The seed begins a long journey, being passed from person to person, until it finally collides with the soul of a girl from Earth and sprouts. With her human knowledge, the girl tries to survive in this world... as a tree. Note: This is my first time writing a novel, so my writing style might be a little rough around the edges sometimes, especially the first twelve are still amateur style. I'll probably rewrite them at some point... later perhaps. Also, the MC will be introduced in chapter 13. The first twelve chapters are more of an introduction to the world, so they bear little significance to the main story. Still, I recommend reading it if you want to get a better view of the world. Chapter releases once every four days.

Summoned
“Per aspera ad astra." Death. Mercilessly, it comes for all. But when a young man is given a second chance – a second life – to experience what he never has, what will he do? Leave the burdens of his past behind, improving upon his faults? Or will he collapse back into old sins, wasting the opportunity given to him? Perhaps even he himself does not know. * Join Andre on his journey as he explores a new world – one ripped straight from the pages of a D&D campaign he's never played. He will face monsters. He will face men. And above all, he will face himself. The story’s genre is your standard progression fantasy, isekai: magic, a system, and a level of technology suspiciously underdeveloped. I’ve borrowed tropes from various books I’ve read like “The Second Coming of Gluttony”. The similarities are there (particularly in the beginning), but I assure you the story is my own. It’s in the first-person perspective and has its own quirks, characters, and world for you to become immersed in. The upload schedule for this will be different from the usual fictions on this site: I’ll release chapters in batches rather than so many a week. I’m a college student, so I don’t want another deadline to worry about. Depending on the popularity/demand of the series, I might increase or decrease the rate of releases. Other than that, I hope you enjoy the story! P.S. This is my first fiction so make sure to point out mistakes wherever you see them. I’m doing this, partly, to increase my skill as a writer. However, be kind! I’m fragile, you know? Warning: ***This is far from your happy-go-lucky, feel-good adventure story. There will be content that some of you might not be comfortable with. And if you're already feeling skeptical reading this, click away and don't come back. If you're still here, what are you waiting for?***
