"A WONDERFUL PODCAST. Great production. Great voice acting. Great writing. Great story. I was hooked right away..." [5 STAR itunes review]
"The Diarist is what you get if Mad Men and Jane Eyre marry and have a baby, where a secretary becomes the personal assistant to a prickly and strange ad executive and falls in love. It’s about regular people in the 1950s making bad decisions. The voice leads in particular are instrumental in creating a haunting story about people that could have been happy."

"I just finished with the first chapter and already fell in an absolute love with this. So tragic but realistic at the same time. I wonder what it felt like to be Eve, all alone and torn. *sigh*"
"Gosh, I love your series! It's so powerful, like, really. Do you have plans on publishing it because I love it beyond words. It's not cliché, it's bad by no means whatsoever, and it's so REAL. I started reading Exuberance Is Beauty waaaaaaay back, and I've recently seen that there are sequels! Thank you for this. Domestic violence is so rarely portrayed in this way and I just want to let you know that I loved every second of reading your books. You are a wonderful, wonderful writer."
"hi rose, im currently reading the third of your series: marvelous error. It has affected me in ways i could not explain. It is very compelling, a certified page-turner, i feel immensely affected by the roles each character portrays, but at this point im starting to hate eve hehe sorry I know i shouldnt judge im not in her shoes, thats why I stopped, contemplated and wrote this on you wall instead...but i guess that makes you a great writer for evoking such emotions on your readers . congratulations! please keep writing good stories. God bless u"
