I’m tired of romances. Maybe I’m just tired of myself. From now on, I’ll write free, light, and unchained. I’ve spent too long reading, rereading, thinking I needed more time. Fool. Idiot. Pleased to meet you. As a woman, I can be as many as I choose. I can tell as many stories as I want. And God help those who don’t want to listen— it won’t be easy to stop me now. Light. Darkness. Prose. And poetry. All in one body. Amen. But I’m tired of romances— or maybe of happy endings. It’s never been like that. It never will be. Stop fooling yourselves— the bad boy doesn’t end up with the good girl. We like the contrast, that’s why we read those stories. The truth? The bad boy ends up with the foolish girl— and she’s not just foolish, she’s twisted enough to crave his filthy mouth and his alpha swagger.
