The Power of Community in Self-Publishing
A few weeks ago, I experienced something truly beautiful. Fifty of you—friends, family, and colleagues—bought Mero Maamu ko Maaya.

Self-publishing can feel like an incredibly lonely journey. It begins with overwhelming doubt and nervousness, often leaving one feeling isolated. There’s no big publisher or massive PR machine, just hope and silent prayers.
But over the last few days, I realized what I do have is my community. You showed up for me in the most comforting and generous way possible. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Your support gives my book its wings.
The Heart of the Story

If you haven’t yet picked up a copy, here’s where you can buy it:
The Journey of Writing
Writing Mero Maamu ko Maaya was not just about putting words on a page. It was a journey of discovery. I delved into my memories, revisiting moments that made me who I am today. Each chapter is infused with love, laughter, and even a few tears.
I wanted to create a space where readers could find their own stories reflected. I hope that through my words, you can feel the warmth of shared experiences.
The Role of Community
Community plays a vital role in our lives. When I began this journey, I felt alone. But your support reminded me that I am part of something bigger. Each message, each purchase, and each review has been a reminder of the love that surrounds us.
I’ve learned that we are stronger together. Your encouragement has fuelled my passion and inspired me to keep writing.
The Importance of Sharing Stories
Stories have the power to connect us. They bridge gaps and foster understanding. When we share our experiences, we invite others to reflect on their own lives. It’s a beautiful cycle of empathy and connection.
I encourage you to share your stories, too. Whether it’s with friends, family, or even a wider audience, your voice matters.
As we continue this journey together, I invite you to engage with my work. If you’ve read Mero Maamu ko Maaya, please consider leaving a review. Your insights can help others discover the beauty of this book.
If you haven’t yet picked up a copy, I hope you will. Let’s celebrate the bonds of love that tie us together. Thank you for being part of this journey. Your support means the world to me.
