13.) Wanna ask or say anything to your readers?
• I wanna ask them to always support me like they have done from day one and don't hesitate to tell me if they find anything in my work that needs improvement or changes.And I want to thank each and every one of them, even those who don't vote for even their single views matter to me a lot.
14.) How did you write so humorously?
• I actually don't know it myself.I start writing with a serious mindset but often unknowingly begin writing humourously. If they can be called humorous at all.
