The Criminal Diaries: It's Finally The End (But I'm Not Sure)

Hello, my sweet estrellitas! So, it's been really long, but here it is, the FINAL CHAPTER of "The Criminal Diaries". "Finally!" – that’s what the characters would say if they were standing in front of me. To be honest, it’s a little sad to finish this project, which I’ve given so much energy and effort to, but which also helped me get through a hard time during its writing process. "The Criminal Diaries" is now my favorite work ever, and I can confidently say that it’s strong, mature, bold, and candid. Though I didn't plan this book to be as heavy and depressing as it turned out. It just happened that way. I wrote and thought, and came up with something that might cause an explosion on the spaghetti factory on your head. So, what’s next? Do you think I’ll wrap up the "Stronger Together" series just because this book was planned as the last one? No, I’m not putting a dot in the series' history. Vice versa, I’d like to continue developing the "ST" universe, despite the opinion that you'd better focus on something new rather than hang on to the old. Yes, "The Criminal Diaries" is currently the last book in the series, but who knows, maybe I’ll wake up one morning and think, “I need MORE!” five or seven years from now. For example, between writing "The Lost And Forgotten Memories" (2016) and "The Criminal Diaries" (2024), eight years passed. So, I'm not sure yet whether this is truly the last book. I also don’t exclude the possibility of writing some spin-offs to tell the stories of other characters from the series (let me know who you’d like to read about in a spin-off – that could inspire me). Maybe there will be alternative stories that explore things that never happened in the main books. Or just some short stories that are connected with the series but not included in the main plot. Anyway, I have a lot of ideas, but they’re all still in the brainstorming stage. Right now, my main focus is on the music from the "Stronger Together" universe. I still have many tracks waiting for their moment to shine, and I’ll be releasing them one by one. I’m also working on a few more projects, but I’m not ready to share details just yet. And finally... I want to sincerely thank everyone who, over the past 11 months, has shown interest in "The Criminal Diaries", added the book to their libraries, liked, and commented on it. I’m even grateful to those who just read the synopsis, ran through one page, read one word, and moved it onto the "trash" list. I also want to mention those who came back and read every new part as it came out. I see it all, and I’m truly happy this work has managed to attract some attention. And I’ll be even happier if you decide to share the link to this book on social media and tell those who might be interested in it. Love, Estrella Rose.
