Hi besties,

I’m beyond excited to officially announce that I have a book deal! This has been years in the making. I’ve been writing for over ten years, and it’s always been my greatest passion.

Growing up in Türkiye, I wrote all my stories in Turkish. After moving to the UK, I tried writing a story, but finishing even a few words took me double the time, and I ended up doing everything really slowly.  I gave up on multiple WIP's and though this wasn't my journey.

It wasn’t until July 2023 that I finally gathered my thoughts and started plotting No Saints Among Us. Surprisingly, writing wasn’t the hardest part, it was convincing myself that I could actually do it. I had a clear vision of the characters and the plot, and the words flowed naturally from there.

After years of edits, beta readers, more edits, and plenty of critique, I finally signed a deal in December 2025. This was a dream I’d long held but thought might never come true. I am eternally grateful to my publishing team for trusting me with this journey, and to my past self for never giving up.

I can’t wait to share more details with you soon, and I’m thrilled to have you here with me on this journey.  

Internally screaming!!
