Hey everyone,
If you’ve been following along with my updates since December, you know life has been a quiet series of recalibrations.
Yesterday marked an official transition: the Celebrate Nature storefront completed its run and entered its indefinite hiatus. Watching that chapter close after pouring so much into it was bittersweet, but as the digital dust settles, I’m realizing something important—clearing off my plate made room for an entirely unexpected spark to catch fire.
Today, I’m taking a leap into something brand-new for my writing journey. I joined Wattpad, and I’m officially releasing the first three chapters of an ambitious fanfiction project: RWBY Volume 10: Between Two Worlds.
If you had told me a year ago that my next major creative venture would be fanfiction, I definitely would have laughed at you. But the truth is, this project—this story—found me right when I needed it most.
Back in February, I was stranded on the couch in the middle of another brutal wave of crippling inflammation and pain, with the pending reality my beloved store was closing, I still found myself struggling to write, and I was just feeling unusually hopeless. To pass the hours, I found myself rewatching RWBY for the umpteenth time. When the credits rolled on the finale of Volume 9, a deep, persistent feeling settled in: I am not ready for this story to end.
Then came one of those notorious 3:00 AM thoughts—the kind that hits when pain won't let you sleep, but your imagination suddenly wakes up.
A single "what if" sparked a second, and then a third. Before I even realized what was happening, the creative momentum I feared I lost started rebuilding itself from the ground up. What started as brief, scattered notes scribbled between resting spells began blooming into full brainstorming sessions. Hours turned into days. Outlines evolved into scenes, and scenes began stitching themselves into full chapters before I could even wrap my head around the sheer scale of what was unfolding.
Writing this AU has been medicine over the past few months. It reminded me of the sheer, unadulterated joy of storytelling for the sake of storytelling.
So, with the store officially behind me and a blank canvas ahead, it felt like the right moment to share it with the world.
About the Story: RWBY Volume 10: Between Two Worlds
Picking up in a slightly deviated version where the canonical narrative left us hanging, this project is my love letter to the world of Remnant—diving deep into character journeys, unexplored conflicts, and the emotional weight of what comes next.
The first three chapters are officially live right now on Wattpad:
