First of all, thank you all for the words of encouragement and yes I saw the poll as well. Thank you again for that.
When I started In a heartbeat- EMA 2, my vision was to show RAGNA's children lives. I had a lot of faith in it but in the same vein I was also hesitant to write the story but I eventually did and it progressed ok for a bit until some issues popped up here and there.

I then realized I made a huge mistake in using ASHNA's faceclaims for my characters Rishav and Saadia and this was confirmed when I recently got another PM which basically requested I continue the ff with more Rishav and Saadia scenes because the fans love ASHNA. I know you all love ASHNA/RAGNA. I know. But I wrote one FF on that pair and my intention in season two was to bring something different to the table.

In a heartbeat is at a very young stage in it's plot but given my plot in Twisting I was hoping my readers will know my style of writing is that my stories tend to have a long comprehensive plot. With that in mind, yes In a heartbeat was at a very very very young stage. The characters were now developing and had to undergo so many changes as the plot progressed.

The plot for In a heartbeat is a very long one actually with many turns and twists as is my style. I think some people judged my characters at a very infant stage without giving room to consider how they will develop and change. There were also going to be some more characters that was going to be introduced along the way.

With that said, I saw someone suggest that I atleast give a final chapter to the story. To that reader, sorry but I can't. I rather leave the story incomplete than to give it a premature ending.

And that is where were are now. My apology. I am sorry to those who will be disappointed but i am not going to continue the story. I don't know if I will ever finish it. Of course I know how it progresses and ends but whether I will ever put my thoughts to words... I don't think I will anymore.

Once again thanks for the support on twisting and also heartbeat when it lasted.

Keep well everyone. Peace.

Sorry if i sound a bit rude but i am just pouring my thoughts into words here.

To me atleast this note does not seem like a formal apology at all ,rather it is more like an egoistic annonecement where you declared how dare someone challenge your plot and storyline. I am the star here - nobody should raise any questions else be happy with story half said. With poistions comes responsibility too. U have a responsibility as a writer which somehow hou dont seem to know or care about. So ur decision not to write is fine by me coz u dont seem to be able to handle critisizim at all !! They may be wrong but u are so so affected so easily. Till dAte i have showered my praise for ur writing here and evenin twitter but today you fell down in my eyes as a writer so me as a reader will not continue reading ur any work in future. So as you said happy/good while it lasted .. Adios!

I do not know if you are a writer in this forum to know what writers usually endure by readers but oh well. But here is something you might not know. I have tweaked and changed my plot to accommodate my readers countless times. They might not have known it cuz the plot is in my head so I know the tweaks that were made. All they saw was the final version that was posted as an update.

The one time I decided "Ok no more changes. No more tweaks of my original plot No more changing of characterizations. But I know this will not be well received by the readers so might as well stop since I don't want to change this plot and disappoint some of my readers who have been following my writing since the beginning. I am not going to change this plot." IF that makes me egotistical then so be it. Criticism is something we face in our daily lives. Constructive criticism is awesome. It encourages growth.

Anyways enjoy your life. Adios to you too.

Hello vidya! How are you dear?
I don't have to tell you how awesomest writer you are since you already know it.😉

People over here are wholeheartedly, enormously connected to ragna including you and me. Which might be a reason they couldn't attach themselves with any other pair. But as a writer, your point is more than valid.

Here, I once again thank you for giving us 'The twisting kaleidoscope' , one of the finest ffs I've ever read.

All the very best for future endeavors and have a great life always.😃
