I’m someone who has fallen in love many times through life.

And writing has been my coping mechanism since teenage years. Of course, I had a diary. But I also loved writing using someone else perspective. I’d create a character, give them my pain and write about how they dealt with it.

I started putting All Around The Love together based on this collection of short stories. Each character came from a different pain, from a different time. But they are all part of me.

They made me explore another kind of love story. One where there isn’t a single perfect person or perfect path. Every choice can be the right one. And every right choice can stop being right after a while.

Writing this story has healed the little girl inside of me. So, I decided to share my stories with people and see if anyone apart from me, likes them.

The blog format came from pure nostalgia. Back in those great teenage years, we had the most amazing communities online (Where did they go—Blogs, Vlogs, Orkut, MySpace, even good oldie Facebook). We could chat with people who watched, read, liked all the same stuff we did.

I hope you can all enjoy this nostalgic feeling of accessing a blog, reading a post, leaving a comment, connecting with people. And most of all, I hope you enjoy meeting the world of All Around The Love.

With love
