A collection of all my short stories divided into categories. Though I'm marking it as completed, I'll add to it whenever I write a new one for some weird reason or another. Enjoy TW:- The stories in the Horror section might be disturbing to sensitive readers, as they contain references to murder, abuse, violence and other possibly triggering themes.

When life becomes too hard to bear alone, someone comes along to bear it with you. Cody wasn't supposed to end up here. Not in this quiet farming town. Not on his grandmother's dairy farm. And definitely not sitting on a fallen tree in the middle of nowhere, wishing he could disappear. Then she finds him. A girl dressed like a walking burst of colour, marching straight out of nowhere and into his solitude. She talks like she knows him. Sits like she belongs there. Holds him like she's not afraid of the broken parts. He thinks she might be a hallucination. She's not entirely convinced he's real either. But when they meet again days later-under fairy lights, strange traditions, and a town that celebrates life in the most unexpected ways-neither of them can ignore the pull between them. Because sometimes, when the world has taken too much... you don't need answers. You just need someone to sit beside you in the dark. Genre: Romance/Humour This is a work of fiction.

When Willow Mayfair's life falls apart, her mother brings her to Briar Cove, the coastal town where she grew up. Living with Rebecca's childhood friend, a new world filled with love, excitement, and friendship opens up for both of them. This story is for everybody who also dreams of a fairy tale and won't care if the "knights" were a little dirty. "Grab a bunch of broken misfits, chuck them in a tribe, add some glitter and loads of weird-ass garbage, voila, you've got yourself a fairy tale... kinda... just... you know... minus the fairies..." Paisley Davenport This story is my happy place; I do not plan on ever finishing it. It will go on and on like a soapie. I might break it up into volumes later. This book is ideal for forgetting the world and becoming best friends with the characters. Please Note:- I'm currently rewriting this story to edit and enhance parts. I'm also breaking up long chapters. Though the reading flow will not be broken, the chapter numbers will become out of sync at the border between old and new. ♫ Genre: Slice of Life/Romance/Humour This is a slow-burn journey through love and life, filled with an array of beloved characters, their sad moments, happy moments and a multitude of bat-sh#t crazy moments. P.S.: This is not a fairy tale... ♫ This is a work of fiction. Any names or characters, businesses or places, events or incidents are fictitious. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. TW: Please be advised that this story contains references to violence (sexual and other), drugs, anxiety, mental health issues, abuse and other possibly upsetting themes.
