《Meet the authors Showcase Edition #1 (Est. 2/17/2020)》A showcase with @BookdragonAS, author of Falling in love sucks sometimes

I was a passionate reader or let's say even now*Laughs*.I find solace in reading. While reading, if there was one thing I found quite contradicting is I wasn't able to relate to most of the characters. I always found the characters were often portrayed as the 'Perfect beings'. And I'm one who believes no one is perfect. That's when this thought of writing a book about a person who is 'normal' in every sense hit my mind.*Smiles* that was the initial idea which caused me to even take up writing and now I'm still busy weaving the story.

Honestly, you won't believe if I tell you this I'm always busy creating plots, characters, scenarios in my mind all the time but whenever I sit down to type my mind just goes blank*Laughs*. This has to be the first thing I suffer from. I'm still an amateur writer-I still struggle with my portion of grammar issues and yes, importantly finding the right words. Trust me by now I have deleted this sentence 3-4 times finding the right words.

The response I got for my work is absolutely wonderful. The most common comment I got for my work is, 'This is Relatable'. Currently my work has about 7.35k views and my work is still ongoing so you can say I feel like I have won an 'Oscar'.
I love everything about my story after all this is something which I'm penning down with my heart and soul. Writing down the psychological aspects, some philosophies and facts in between the story is definitely my favorite part and also the humor part. You doesn't love to laugh a bit?

a stand alone
There are couple of things my readers can take from my work.
✨It's ok to be imperfect.

✨Not to dwell in the past and learn to embrace the present.
✨Love is not a bad thing after all.
Ah! I'm a new budding writer myself, honestly I don't even think I'm qualified enough to advice anyone. But I can tell you few things I do to keep my mind free and focused on writing:
✨Good music
✨Coffee
✨A notepad to jot down points on how you want the story to proceed, this way it helps you keep stay focused on the plot and keep you away from the terrible writers block.
✨Read good Books, it helps you enhance your writing skills.
Yes! The character in my book with the name Skyfall is very much similar to me. She's a procrastinator, loves bikes, a goofball and a tomboy. I was in search for some inspiration to write, which readers could relate to and I found nothing other than presenting me in her. Thankfully the readers loved it.
I think the most important thing is to never lose faith in yourself, continue writing even if no one is reading your book. The most important point is to enjoy the process.
✨Learn to take praises and criticisms in the same way. If it wasn't for the criticisms I took from my readers, I don't honestly think I would have been able to grow myself as a writer. Readers love it when you listen to them and trust me it helps.
✨A catchy title and plot is another part which helps get your reader's attention.
A writer's mind is never idle. As I'm typing this I have already plotted many ideas in my mind*laughs*.

Beyond the Veil
Martin's life would never be the same. He somehow survived a massacre by shady men in black, only to discover they were conspiring with the police. What was he going to do now? But where one life ends, another life begins. One that will learn of magic, and the world beyond the veil. This is a complete rewrite of my first story, The World Beyond the Veil. This is not the same story. Not even a single sentence has been copy-pasted from the original fiction. Readers of the original will recognize a lot of elements, but there are more and more differences as the story progresses. The fiction is planned as a trilogy. The first volume is published. Regarding one of the tags:Sexual Content: There are no explicit sex scenes in the story. On the other hand, it is definitely a story meant for an adult audience, with plenty of references to sex and genitalia. If you're not comfortable with that, maybe steer away from this story. I am very interested in feedback. Let me know if you spot a plot hole or something else that seem off to you.
