🌿I'm turning a page...
From long days in newsrooms and longer nights on the road. From desert border posts to mist-heavy harbors, from the backstreets of Marrakech to the mountain edges of Tibet - I wrote what the world needed to know.
But now? Now, this is a new chapter of me, I write what I need to feel. No more interviews with dignitaries or diplomats.
No more chasing headlines.
The stories I tell now don't answer to urgency ❤️
Quick reads, short novels, long tales that linger... They wander.
Historical Fiction. Fantasy. Fairytale Retellings. Romance, romance... and yes - more romance 💋
They are for those who travel by sentence, who collect Visas for footsteps in fiction, who sit quietly in the shade with a book that breathes.
Here's a warm little corner for you, with stories that spill scandalous secrets.
Here, right within the pages, you'll find characters you love without shame🌹
To those who walk these pages with me, and those who follow, I'm AY - keeper of rare tales, devourer of old manuscripts, and sworn scribe of stories inked not for frenzy. Nor for fame, but for the gentle breeze in the shade 🌴
Halora, and welcome! 💋
