Hi, my name is Dimas Ivan Adhiatma, but Dimas or Ivan are fine. I took the pen as a hobby since I was a child and realized how fun it is to recognize all the "what-ifs." Later, I realized that those "what-ifs" are possibilities that could happen at any moment in our lives. As such, writing to me has become a medium for exploration and self-discovery. Love and hate; Joy and tragedy. These are all that make the fictive world mesmerizing. Have fun reading!
