Something something
Even though, I had been a commercial writer during a long period (~7 years), book completion is such a challenge.
But it's also a huge dream for even longer period. ~10 years I dream to share my stories.

It is mood board and roadmap at once.
May the force be with me!

Do you mean who I love? Do you mean what I’ve lost?
WHO AM I? I guess who I am is exactly the same as who you are. Not better than. Not less than. Because there is no one who has been or will ever be exactly the same as either you or me' 8 sense
