poems... some are made up stories, some are based on my feelings at that moment and some are just out of boredom.

This book was written for both non‑native and native speakers of English. If you're a native speaker, you'll get a clear look into what actually goes through the mind of someone learning English as a second language. Topics include some of the biggest challenges ESL students face, such as: How To Learn English Fast How To Sound Like a Native Speaker How To Improve Your Vocabulary I Can Read, Write, and Understand English, But I Can't Speak It You Speak Too Fast! My English is Poor Writing this book is one of the scariest decisions I've ever done. I did even ask myself, "Why are you doing this? Why do you have to spend so much time contributing your thoughts and words? Why do you have to spend days and sleepless nights and months crafting this book, improving it, editing it? Why?" Because I CARE! I can't help but F***ING care! I am seeing ESL students-from the richest to the least privileged-who have trouble with English, and they're getting worse. To help, I wonder if I could share a bit of my story.

Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies. At first Emmy wants nothing more than to forget her chilling new reality - but her admirer isn't finished with her yet, and before she knows it, Emmy's stuck in a nightmare she can't dance her way out of. Content and/or trigger warning: This story contains detailed scenes of murder, rape, torture, sex and stalking, which may be triggering for some readers. [[word count: 80,000-90,000 words]]
