Subtle Steps in Solitude is a story born from the quiet moments we often overlook in our busy lives. It's about the internal battles we fight when no one's watching, the pressure of meeting expectations, and the longing for something more—something real.
Cici Tan's journey is a reflection of the challenges many of us face as we navigate the complexities of adulthood, career demands, and family obligations. Her story is one of strength and vulnerability, of finding balance in a world that often pushes us to one extreme or the other. Through Cici, I hope to convey that it's okay to take small, subtle steps towards change, and that sometimes, the most significant growth happens in the moments we least expect.
Writing this novel has been a deeply personal experience, as I've drawn on observations and emotions that resonate with many of us. My hope is that Subtle Steps in Solitude will encourage readers to reflect on their own journeys, to embrace the solitude and the companionship that life offers, and to find peace in the process of self-discovery.
Thank you for taking the time to join Cici on her path. May her story inspire you to take your own subtle steps towards a more fulfilling life.
Read on, hopeful soul.
Trying my best to feel everything, Lazy
