Novel ini rencananya akan diterbit oleh penerbit mayor label. Dengan begitu, sasaran pangsa pasarnya lebih besar. Namun, Vina belum memfokuskan ke situ. Vina ingin menjalani masa kuliahnya ini dengan baik dan menorehkan hasil studi yang gemilang.
Vina juga belum memberitahu keseluruhan ide cerita. Vina hanya menjelaskan kisi-kisinya. Intinya, ujar dia, bukunya tentang novel kehidupan.
In addition, Vina is also interested in books with the theme of self-development or self-improvement. Vina assessed that such a book was important to write because it would take millennials to motivate and convince themselves to achieve their goals.
Vina said that the millennial generation needs to continue to raise their big dreams. The younger generation must keep their dreams and strive to realize them and make them come true by creating and innovating.
Vice Chancellor of the Indonesian Technocrat University Dr. H Mahathir Muhammad, SE., MM. said that the campus appreciates Vina’s writing culture. Despite studying abroad with many activities, Mahathir praised Vina’s skills.
