THAT THERE IS NO SINGLE "RIGHT" WAY TO NAVIGATE
LIFE'S COMPLEXITIES, OFFERING READERS A SPACE TO
FEEL SEEN AND UNDERSTOOD IN THEIR OWN UNIQUE
STRUGGLES.

Everyone has their own struggles- some visible, some hidden. The choices we make reflect on our experiences, our fears and the things we hold dear.

Hence that is why we made "VDV", a collection of voices, each telling their stories. Making sure that you understand that these aren't just simply words on a page, but actual bits of our souls. By telling moments of vulnerability, strength and raw honesty. We hope to create a space where you feel seen and heard.

"VDV" is an online novel designed to help readers see how everyone has different approaches to life's challenges regardless of the scale. Through short stories and arcs told from three different stories which are written in three different styles, we truly hope that to show that there isn't any right or wrong way to live or feel.

Maybe you'll find yourself in these journeys, once again, we hope that you know that you aren't alone.
