What If Everything You Believed In Was a Lie??

How catchy does this line sound? Is it tempting enough for you to pick up the book and see what’s inside?

Or if it’s online, will you download the app to read it?

I know for most people it will be a huge problem because we are lazy and why would we bother reading it?

So, here comes the pitch.

But before the pitch, comes a confession;

I have never liked to boast about my writings in any way. In fact, it always made me uncomfortable, made me feel like I’m showing it off, in a negative manner, until now. I think it was some unresolved issue that I resolved on my own so here I am. From this day onwards, I will be publicly telling the world that I am writing a story/novel/poem whatever. I will be doing the marketing as well. Because I think that for once I should let people know that I’ve written something, whether they read it or not is obviously UpTo them.

At first I thought of publishing it in paperback but then I wondered who will read it? I am no Karen M McManus or Jennifer Lynn Barnes that people would be screaming, crying, throwing up when I publish something.

So, I got to ny roots aka WATTPAD.

Yeah it’s banned but that’s what VPN is for

You don’t always go to the ‘do not visit websites’ through VPN sometimes you can use it to read a good book!

Coming to the point ☝️

I am writing a story. The genre is Mystery and it’s based in Pakistan. I am not sure whether people will love it or not, but I know that I love it. And I will own it, whether it goes down badly!

Here’s the cover;

Took a picture from Pinterest, threw it on Canva and tada! 🎉

Anyways,

Would you like to read it?

I hope you do!

Otherwise,

Your loss babe!

Won’t be publishing it unless I gather enough readers. (Estimated ten cause I am only delulu when it comes to Taylor and Joe and this is my writing so staying real is the only key)
