First of all, you can't imagine how happy I am that The False King has received two new positive reviews, and positive ones at that. It almost made me cry. It makes me happy to know that my book has finally found its readers.

In reference to one of the reviews, I would like to make a small announcement. The second book is well underway. It is already 100 pages long and I am currently working on chapter 7.

Secret Secret (I'm still choosing between two titles) will introduce new characters that I hope you will enjoy getting to know. One of whom, I am sure, will capture your heart. The second volume will be a little darker, as the stakes are raised and political and personal tensions continue to grow. But it will still keep you on your toes.

Special thanks to all my readers (you are not many, but you are the best.)

I promise I will continue to post more updates!

Last night I talked to a friend of mine, who is also a writer, about what prompted us to pick up our pens. And I found out that, although we spent our nights weaving new plots, the root of our passion was of a different nature.

For him, the writing represents a sort of a gateway to memories of the past, allowing him to relieve them through the eyes of his characters.

I, on the other hand, have always thought that writing was about sharing my stories with the rest of the world. Ever since I was a child, I would imagine my own colourful worlds, often telling my silly stories to my siblings as I put them to bed.

As years went by, writing and reading became my source of comfort in a world devoid of magic. Dealing with mundane tasks, I created Alcor and Hope, which soon took on a life of their own, prompting me to open my laptop and start writing.

And so The False King was born. And I hope readers will enjoy reading it as much I enjoyed writing it.
