Pien Pouwels

Those of you who read Daddy Unknown may know that I named Ollie after my own Ollie, the light of my life. As if the world isn't monstrous enough of a place already, he unexpectedly passed away on Thursday night. My entire family is distraught, Ollie might have been a cat, but he was our fifth family member. Whenever I think my fluid reserve has run dry, more tears come. This loss feels like an amputation in the cortex of my brain, a phantom limb that will never quite heal. The pain tells me my love is real and that I am alive, although solely in the corporeal sense. Grief is a blunt knife that stabs me in the chest. Again and again and again. I hope mijn baby has become a star who glides into a soft space until we find each other again.

Chapter Twelve Part One was posted yesterday! And I'll be posting Part Two at 17:00 CEST tomorrow! ✨

Dearlings, I have a question! I've been contemplating unpublishing the original version of the Song of the Wolf until I've finished posting the rewrite, so there is no confusion and to be frank, I'd rather have new readers read the rewrite than to be introduced to the old version. I'm a wee bit scared though, maybe because I've never unpublished anything. Additionally, I know some of you have been reading the old version alongside the new one so this might throw a spanner in the works. What do you guys think?

I am so glad to see that you are back .I can only rank you among writers like  J.K Rowling and I  am glad I read your books .You have very many die hard fans and we love you ,I can’t stop praying for you .Better times are coming for a talent like your .Love you ❤️
          Update soon Insha Allah  

Dear all, I have just posted the first chapter to the edited version of the Song of the Wolf. I am pretty much rewriting the entire book, so while the premise remains the same, expect lots of changes and new additions. If you're confused (bc you might've missed my last message): I will start posting new chapters to the Hymn of Dormancy once I finish editing TSOTW. Love you to bits!

Can't believe you're back ❤️

It’s been years since Iv read daddy unknown and to this day I keep thinking back to it. I need a physical copy 

I’m so happy to hear your back! I have enjoyed your writing very much and often find myself reading it over again. I’m sorry to hear that you have been going through a rough patch in life. I encourage you to continue and remember breathe each day. Also, even though you can feel like you have a lot on your plate at once, it doesn’t mean it all has to be done at once (I myself enjoy leftovers) Take one plate and label it- Things to focus on now.
          Take another plate and label it - Things for later
          Take one more and label it-Things for future
          You can take as many plates as you need and just focus on one plate at a time. I happy your back and can’t tell you how many times I wished you would have updated but I also wish for you to be stable, happy, and well more then anything. With love ❤️ 

Also it must be fate, I haven’t even opened Wattpad in months, I randomly started thinking about you/your books and decided to check, and it said you had posted a message 7 minutes before.

Greetings dearest readers, I relapsed and have been struggling to find the will to live for the past 2.5 years, hence my absence. I've gradually grown more unstable these last few months, so much that a sense of urgency has been triggered and I'm hell-bent on  finishing editing The Song of the Wolf this year. With everything going on, I'll only be able to focus on one creative project at a time. I understand that may come as a disappointment to some of you as this means there won't be a new Hymn of Dormancy chapter for another couple of months at the least. But as I am hoping to get TSOTW (and consequently THOD) published someday soon, I hope you understand. Thank you so much for your messages of concern, your unwavering support and patience. I love you to bits.
          P.S. I'll post the edited version to Wattpad once I've finished. I'm planning on changing quite a lot so hopefully that's somewhat of a consolation.
