Dear Miss Cathy,
First, I would like to apologize for this late reply; recently, everything in Beirut has been overwhelming and stressful after the explosion, and I was planning of replying earlier but I did not have the chance.
I have read your book and it was an enjoyable read, I applaud you for your lovely effort and I encourage you to keep on writing. Of course, my reviews are honest but they are not meant to discourage any writer. I highly salute you for your efforts of writing, and there is always room for improvement. Thank you for accepting my review with a high spirit.
I will certainly post the review on Goodreads and Amazon upon your request, but I must first wait for it to go live on Reedsy as the policy indicates.
I hope things are going well for you and your family. God Bless You.
Greetings,
H. A. A. Zayour

My most recent book "On Suffering" originated from the sufferings I encountered in my daily life, whether on a personal level or on a wider scale. For that, I decided to turn these unfortunate events into characters and lessons I could share, which are present in the book.

Originally, somehow, all great ideas I have come from dreams.
I get inspired to write thus from those incidents. In addition to that, whenever I encounter something that really touches me, I feel greatly inclined to write about it.

I would love to leave that as a surprise for later on. However, the only thing I could say about it is that this work would be in Arabic.
Stay Tuned!

I, personally, am an aspiring writer. For that, I do not find myself to be in a position where I could advise my peers regarding that.
However, I would urge everyone to just keep on trying with what they love. Publicity thus comes in second hand, which renders it as not significant. What matters is doing what you truly love and being persistent about it. Keep on trying.

I believe that everyone is a writer, and it doesn't have to be the case where everyone is well-known for it.
We, humans, are expressive beings. We aim to manifest our identities in all of what we do.
For that, at least in my case, the best thing about being a writer is getting the chance of evincing your thoughts and emotions in forms you and everyone could see and touch. That is the greatest gift in writing.

Although there are many fictional worlds I would love to travel to, I would definitely choose Tolkein's Middle Earth. What a magnificent place.
When I go there, I would search for Gandalf, invite him over to the Shire or any other calm and peaceful place, and then smoke a pipe with his company. That would be a remarkable afternoon. Of course, I would love it if Bilbo Baggins would join too.

The way it goes around for me when it comes to choosing books is as follows: I select a domain that I know nothing about, and then I search for the most significant books related to it. Fundamentally speaking, it all goes back to the goal of acquiring knowledge.
During these times, which would normally extend to the summer and thus govern my summer reading list, I am focusing on the fields of psychology and psychoanalysis. So, my list would be formed of books from those fields. I would like to highlight the importance of books by Carl Jung.
In addition to that, I would also have some supplementary novels to read. Anything that grabs my attention.
