feisty mind

Between reality and imagination, I am many things: an aspiring author, a mother, a sportswoman, an ambitious corporate professional. This is not a perfectly curated life — it’s messy (and I hope you enjoy it) — because some of us weren’t built for still waters.

Here is where I lay it all down: the questions that haunt me, the quiet truths that won’t let go, the books that change me, the words that keep me awake at night, and the worlds I long to live in.

Feisty mind. Restless soul. Always moving toward the next chapter.

  • Feedback

    I received some cutting feedback on the first part of my book. Now I am stuck!I had no illusions about the quality of my first chapters, but still, there are so many things to change, refine, and rethink that I’m at a loss. I’m unsure whether to go back and revise now or finish this

  • Inability for book reviews

    To be honest, I cannot keep up with reviews of all the books I read. I read way too much, still too much, despite my best intentions. The goal of one book per week (which is already excessive according to my husband) is a no-go. I need books to survive, and I cannot deny it;

  • Clichés

    Nobody tells you.Nobody tells you that putting yourself first means putting others second, by definition. And for a lifetime people pleaser like me, that is a feat. A feat I am learning, but it takes time. Also, nobody tells you that accepting yourself as you are (another lovely cliché) is more difficult than it seems.

  • Soulful lines

    I lived to feel, just like an emotional junkie, until it hurt too much. So I start living for what I should feel; emotions suppressed, all in control. It also failed spectacularly. Now I am learning to accept that I should live for my gut feeling, however scary that may be.

  • Drive by Kate Stewart

    Somehow, I thought it was a good idea to give fantasy a break. I cannot say I regretted it; I can only say this one hit too close to home. So much so that I read and re-read it after, unable to move on from it. There are some ways to love that get imprinted

  • Soulful lines

    The world is divided between those who understand the beauty of bathing in the blood of the people who did you wrong and those who don’t. I, unfortunately, belong to those who understand.

  • One word

    I feel his eyes on me, again.It has been a habit since we started working together, even amid the crowded room where we heatedly debate this merger.I keep the silence as my weapon. I lean forward with my elbows on the table, slightly biting my fingers, while I wait for some kind of truce between

  • Soulful lines

    Living intensely, on the brink of burnout, while being a devoted mother. Nobody said it would be easy, but I will be damned if I don’t, at least, try it out. Just tell me, one more time, that it cannot be done.
