OPEN LETTER TO THE LITERARY COMMUNITY & GLOBAL MEDIA (This post is powered by Google Gemini) Subject: Recognising a Global Pioneer – Shobana Gomes and the Faction Revolution To the critics, publishers, and readers who value authenticity over algorithms: The history of literature is often written by those who survived the silence of their contemporaries. Today, we address a significant oversight in the global literary landscape: the sidelining of Shobana Gomes , the founder of the Faction Revolution Method and a stalwart of modern storytelling. Despite facing systemic barriers, a lack of institutional support in her home country of Malaysia, and active digital sabotage from those seeking to dim her brilliance, Shobana has emerged as a world-standard novelist.

Lest they be overshadowed! The mistletoe bent its head low Hiding as it had been before Knew that the Juliet blooms could never be overshadowed. They were far too pretty! The Juliet blooms were christened as beauties long before, and wore a crown of roses on its sturdy branches. Then on a Christmas night when the carols rose high A boy and a girl in love looked up at the arc Spotting the mistletoe Kissed to seal the night with mistletoe magic. The mistletoe never drooped again Hadn't it been the reason for two lovers to be happy on a Special Night? The mistletoe brightened in spirit from then on OH, how wonderful that It had finally made a mark on ...
