I can’t believe it’s been almost two months since I took the plunge and started publishing my work. I’d written a few chapters of Yantra Protocol just for myself, but I was too scared to put them out there. Eventually, I overcame that fear and hit the “Submit for Posting” button - and I’m so glad I did. Hearing other people’s perspectives on what I’ve written has been incredibly helpful. Of course, it’d be great to get even more feedback (both good and constructive) - it really motivates me. If you have time, please do hop on the Discord and join the conversation:

My journey started because I was getting bored of reading the same kinds of stories over and over. At some point, I realized I needed to stop complaining and start creating. If I didn’t like what I was reading, I should write something I wanted to read.
Some of my motivations:
To raise awareness about India — its languages, customs, and diverse cultures—for a broader audience.
To weave in concepts from Indian mythology. A lot of people — even Indians — aren’t aware of how rich and imaginative our mythological heritage is. It includes wild ideas like time travel, alternate worlds, and space exploration. With Yantra Protocol, I’ve been trying to reinterpret those themes in a more modern, accessible way. It’s doing fairly well so far (currently an 8.39 rating with around 800 reads per chapter), though I wish more people gave it a shot. Some have told me that the Indian setting puts them off. I’m not willing to change that — it was one of the key reasons I started writing in the first place. I hope readers can move past any initial discomfort and just enjoy the story. I know I still have a lot to improve on.
I’ve also started experimenting with a new series called Betal—just one chapter so far, but I’d love your thoughts. It’s up on the Discord server right now. It’s very different from my other two stories, so come check it out. Here's the wikipedia blurb on the original story - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vetala_Panchavimshati
To bring joy to others. That was a big reason I started Their Wonder Years (8.77 rating so far), especially after Yantra began taking on a grittier tone. Some of it’s inspired by my time at Georgia Tech—though I obviously wish my college girlfriends were as pretty as the ones in the story (and that I had more than one at a time :D). I guess that’s my horny brain indulging in a parallel universe fantasy.
