”Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.” 

- Oprah Winfrey

Happy New Year everyone!

I hope everything's been well for you, despite the fact that 2019 just started. Who would have thought we'd come this far together, and I am always forever thankful that I managed to find AFF and find comfort in writing my little stories to share with people all around the world. And honestly, I am just so happy to have a little community of readers who really enjoy my writing and I just want to tell you how grateful (and honored!) I am that you chose to give me a chance to be a better writer.

2015 was when I started publishing this anthology, and now, four years later, 2019 will bring another anthology of stories. I am grateful for the experiences - the bad ones especially - and I will be channeling those experiences in this new anthology of broken promises, vanishing illusions of perfection, and bittersweet endings. 

It will be called...

the day i left you

I've been scouring for prompts and getting in touch with all things angsty and dark, and I can't wait to unveil the oneshots with you all. Feel free to suggest ideas as well, you know I love them. I'm kind of in need of muses to center the stories around too, so don't be shy to throw me a love interest. *wink wink*

Stay safe, stay happy, and have a merry 2019!

Chapter 10: Omg that made me feel so warm and fuzzy inside ^^ It was fantastic! Throughout it, I just kept shipping the pair, even though the outcome may seem obvious - when, in reality, it's not, as some authors like to be mean TT This was such a good addition to your collection! <3

Hi! This is the first comment I've ever written after joining AFF. As an avid reader, I really enjoyed your one shots and am taking my time reading them slowly to maximize my joy

Chapter 3: Ugh, I wish I had long spindly fingers. I've been playing violin for 12 years (since I was four) and my hand is super small and my fingers are short and muscular.

It's hell when I attempt Paganini.


But omg your writing is so fantastic!

Chapter 7: When you mentioned that Yoongi was actually a vampire in your author's note, I erased my thoughts about him being a grim reaper or something XD Hayoung is so bubbly compared to him and you know what they say - opposites attract. Now I'm curious as to what a soulmate's "smell" is supposed to smell like haha. Another beautifully written drabble (but really it could pass as a one-shot, gurl!)

Chapter 6: OH MY, DEENA! This is making me flustered too, but I sense the start of a budding romance even though it's an arranged marriage :)

Chapter 5: THIS WAS TOO CUTE, DEENA! Neighbor!Jongin is portrayed so wonderfully in here ohohoho. And I imagined munchkin as this really chubby cat and ugh that's too adorable TBH. I like looking at AUs in tumblr and there was this one where it said "dude why did that siren take on my image to try and seduce you, is there something you want to tell me?" and I bet you'll do a wonderful job on that ;) you always write beautiful anyways LOL! Fighting X 1000

Chapter 4: That gif of Taehyung in this chapter reminds me of Jongdae's funky movements.

Seokmin and Taehyung are sooo cute together, and I smiled at the part when they were talking about her biceps and workout routine. I imagined a really buff teenager LOL. Morning breath , but eyyyy the kiss was cute! CONGRATS TO YOUR AMAZING WRITING SKILLS.

Chapter 3: YAAAASSS DEENA WORK! Though I don't know Park Bo Gum well, he certainly is a handsome man and the way you write gives me feels about him. Have you played in an orchestra before? I attempted to do vibrato on the violin, but then it sounded funky. You update fairly fast! I like it, haha :D

Chapter 2: When I saw Minseok on the cover picture for this chapter, I was like "ughhhhhhhhaaaahahhhhh." Yikes to that accidental mistake with the scalpel, but at least seeing Areum in a long time will make Minseok better :) Wonderful cafe!au story again. The only coffee I like is the Starbucks' frapuccino, haha. Where it's all sweet and milky and I can't taste the coffee anymore.

Chapter 1: Wow, Deena, you write sooooo beautiful and I'm completely enamored with every sentence you've written. The cafe!au setting goes wonderful with Namjoon especially since he reads a lot of books ;) Keep on writing <3333
