The Journey to My 17th Creation: Ho Lucy Lucy
Seventeen books in four years—a journey filled with creativity, challenges, and the constant love of my readers. Every piece I’ve written has sparked curiosity, emotion, and thought among you. For that, I am deeply grateful.
People often tell me my works are popular because “I stay close to my readers.” But the truth is, there were times when I stepped back. Times when I disappeared from Facebook, didn’t reply to messages, and avoided comments for months.
In those moments, I wasn’t avoiding you. I was searching for myself, delving deeper into my craft, and creating something new. Out of that quiet came three distinct works:
- 11—a story readers still talk about and will for years to come.
- Ho Lucy Lucy—unveiling today.
- Jackass—a daring work that pushes boundaries and defies norms, one that might even face bans in places like Sri Lanka. Yet, I published it anyway.
Even in my absence, you stayed with me. You believed in me. With every release, you trusted that my stories would leave you with more than just words. Whether it was suspense, knowledge, or the thrill of fear, you knew I’d give you my best.
In return, I’ve always done my part to honor that trust—offering quality books at the lowest possible price, ensuring every release from BookMee was nothing less than exceptional. For this 17th book, I even designed 17 different covers to make it special.
Seventeen books in almost four years. It still feels surreal to say it. Perhaps it’s fate, giving so much so quickly for reasons I may never fully understand.
But here we are: my 17th book, Ho Lucy Lucy.
This is a story that speaks from the depths, challenging your thoughts on love, life, and the unseen struggles of the mind. Writing it was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. The complexity of the main character demanded that I step into their world completely. I met people battling mental illness, observed their speech, their silences, even the way they spoke to themselves. In those moments, I found myself talking to myself too, living inside that character.
In fact, I lived more in Ho Lucy Lucy than in any other story I’ve written.
The name came easily—it’s my wife’s name, Lucy. But to bring the character to life, I had to do something a writer should never do: I imagined Lucy as a lost character in my mind. I needed to feel the loss, to make the story real.
This book became a labor of love. Writing it was a beautiful experience—a journey of living within its pages. And now, I’m happy to share that experience with you.
From today, Ho Lucy Lucy belongs to you. Like every story I’ve written, I promise this: once you pick it up, you won’t put it down.
Thank you for letting me live in these stories, for walking this path with me. Ho Lucy Lucy is now in your hands—its unveiling is yours to give.
