I understand you sent that very specific music and specific thoughts to the universe to put them in my path. I understand completely that you want your stories told. Have you considered the author you're trying to poke, prod, and convince has ADHD and ADHD brain go ... No?

I want to write. I want the motivation to tell your stories. Do you know what I don't have? The get up and go to sit and write. As much as I want to. So thank you for the music. However no words will be written today.

Love,

I stand with you all, I wish you folks the happiest pride month :D Also, as the occasion calls for pride, reminder that Cin is an ace king >:D

After a lot of thought, I've decided it's time for a little rebrand.

MandapandamoniumWrites is officially becoming Author Nikki Harlow.

When I first created this space, I was an aspiring writer with a dream and a keyboard. It was a place to share my journey, my works-in-progress, and all the chaos that comes with chasing a creative life.

Since then, something incredible happened.

I became a published author.

I've written books I never thought I'd be brave enough to finish. I've met readers who connected with my characters. I've built worlds that feel like home and watched stories that lived in my head find their way onto bookshelves and e-readers.

This change isn't about leaving the old name behind.

It's about embracing where I am now.

Nikki Harlow is the name on my books, and I want this space to reflect the author I've become while still keeping the same love of storytelling, books, characters, and occasional writing-induced chaos.

Thank you to everyone who has followed along on this journey—from the early drafts and late-night writing sessions to releases, cover reveals, and all the exciting things still to come.

The name may be changing, but the heart behind it remains the same. ❤️

Here's to new stories, new adventures, and this next chapter.

Love, Nikki Harlow

✨ Author of romance, magic, found family, and happily-ever-afters.

The completed long fic with @saranova One Manhattan (and it's companion piece Two Manhattans) have officially been archived from ao3.

Why? Because they have been scrubbed and published as an original work!! There have been significant changes, chapters added and removed, characters changed, enhanced, and removed, but the origins will always be FW fanfic. Think of the original One Manhattan as "based on" the fanfic of the same name
