Exciting update! I’ve started preparing for the release of the second book in my Labyrinth series — Snow Demon. It’s a dark psychological thriller about cold landscapes, hidden scars, and the monsters that live closer than we think. If Labyrinth of Mind explored the system’s shadows, this one dives into the darkness that waits right next door.

The release is planned for December 22, 2025

📷I can’t wait to share more soon — stay tuned for glimpses behind the scenes and chilling details

In just 24 hours after I activated my Instagram, ten “reviewers” reached out to me — all offering “collaborations” on a paid basis.

I don’t trust paid reviewers, and here’s why:

They’re paid, and their audience knows it. Which means their reviews instantly lose credibility.
The messages are all the same. Copy-paste templates, completely impersonal.
It’s disheartening, honestly. As an indie author you want genuine feedback, real connections with readers. Instead, you open your inbox and it feels like a marketplace.

I know this is part of the journey, but sometimes it feels like a vicious circle: no audience means no visibility, and no visibility means no audience.

Still… I’ll keep going. I’d rather build slowly, with trust, than fast with fakery.

One more file. One more secret. One step deeper into the labyrinth. And power? Power always breeds monsters.

The first paperback copy of my book has reached a reader.
I haven’t even seen it in print yet, but my characters already live on real pages. Surreal feeling.

Eight months of work, and still a missing word slipped through.
I caught it, fixed it, and moved on.
The author’s journey isn’t about being perfect — it’s about having the strength to stand up, correct, and keep going.

This book marks the end of one huge stage—and the beginning of an even bigger one. I’m both excited and terrified, but mostly grateful.

To everyone who supported me—thank you ❤️

After months of work, edits, doubts, and more edits — the finish line is finally close.
Labyrinth of Mind will be my first book in English, published on Amazon.
Both terrifying and exciting.

Started Unmarked with a plan.
Stuck to it.
Then the story grew teeth.
Now it bites deeper than I expected.
This isn't just about PTSD. It's about survival, identity, and the scars we carry in silence.
I'm not backing down.

[Alex Noir 🇺🇦 @Svalna]

Manuscript of Labyrinth of Mind is with the publisher.
I’m finishing the English version for Amazon.
I’m tired, scared, hopeful.
But I’m not backing down.
Oh, and I finished the Unmarked cover — and yeah, I think it’s perfect.

Learn about the woman who outwitted, outplanned and outburned a whole tribe.
That’s the energy. 🔥

Hi.
And I’ve decided to take a risk.
I had a steady pool of readers. My stories resonated with people.
But now… I’m stepping onto a different playing field.
My book is on its way to publication in my native language — the manuscript is already with the publisher.

[Alex Noir 🇺🇦 @Svalna]

The weather isn’t helping during the day, and nightly attacks make it hard to rest. But deadlines don’t care.
So what do we do?
We work.
There’s no other option on the table.

Last night my hometown—Kyiv—was under heavy missile fire.
Today, I’m still writing.
I flinch at loud sounds. I dream of fire from the sky.
Yes, I have PTSD.
But nothing will silence my voice.

I’m a Ukrainian author.
And I have a story to tell.

First look at the Unmarked cover.

[Alex Noir 🇺🇦 @Svalna]

Turns out the scariest part of the police force isn’t the killers. It’s Gabriel Lucero before coffee.

[Alex Noir 🇺🇦 @Svalna]

This week feels tense. I can’t seem to write a single decent line. It’s like there’s a block in my head that won’t let me work.
Moments like this almost make me believe in planetary influence.
Damn it.

I hate social media. Just hate it.
Workload? Crushing. Deadlines? Comatose. Anxiety? Stable.
The Labyrinth of the Mind file is… probably ready to send to the publisher.
Maybe. Not sure.
Gonna reread it again. Just in case.
