Hey mates! It's your fellow writer, Desme.
Wait, you know that.
I just realized we hit 102 reads today. And that makes two books of mine hitting a 100+ mark.
Woohoo!
I love you guys. Love you. Thanks a billion.
I'm not gonna bore you again, that when I started it I never expected it to hit a hundred reads and all, but no. Really, I didn't.
'Beth' is a really special story for me. Like it was my first deep story, I've been writing stories and poems since I was in, like, 3rd grade, like 8 years old. No, I swear it's true. No fingers crossed.
But you see, this is a story, my first story that I actually wanted to put out there to see what other people think. And well, when I see the ultimate outcome *sniff sniff*, I get real emotional guys.
Also, well, it being a short story, a short thriller story, and hitting even 50+ reads, was quite marvellous, cause I didn't even know the genre was that popular!
I don't know if you're satisfied with the ending, or with the characters, or even the storyline. I don't even know if you like it even one bit, but for all its worth, thanks a lot for dropping by, even if it was just to take an itty-bitty look. Even if it was for one chapter.
Cause every read counts. Your read counts, a lot, at least to me. Okay, I won't bore you anymore (seriously).
But just can I ask you guys to vote my story? Like, guys it's not even hard. Just the star button at the bottom left of your screen. But just, I'm sorry. I won't be someone begging for votes and all (😅).
I mean, come on. I'm a self proclaimed savage girl! (Technically, I'm not supposed to do that. So...)
Well, for now, your reads are just what count, for me.
