(Completed) Sub-title: (A Poetry Collection for the Villain Era) The Blurb: "You told me I was pretty when I was quiet. I'm about to be the ugliest thing you've ever heard." I spent years being the girl who apologized for taking up space. I was the "nice girl." I was the "lesson." I was the stepping stone you used to get to a better version of yourself. But the nice girl is dead. I buried her in the backyard of the house you built out of gaslighting and lies. This isn't just poetry. It's a list of receipts. It's the sound of every bridge burning behind me. It's the 3:00 AM realization that you didn't break me-you just gave me something to write about. Inside this collection: 🔥 Raw female rage 🥀 The death of the "Good Girl" 🤫 Secrets you weren't supposed to hear 💄 A transformation you won't forget "I didn't just find my voice. I found my teeth.

Living with his parents - rent-free, jobless, and on the dole - life is stress-free and easy. However, watching the world go by has not made Steve any less opinionated, especially on important and pressing issues such as social networking sites and daytime TV. But fate is about to deal another hand. Motivated by the fear of losing his benefits and precious beer money, and enticed by an exotic-sounding location, Steve takes a job that is not quite what it seems . . . Thrust into a surreal world where multi-national organised terrorism is regulated by crazy bureaucracy and health and safety gone mad, Steve finds himself employed by the megalomaniac Dr Won Doin who is hell bent on that old cliché of world domination. If Daniel Craig portrays Bond in a modern era, then Dr Won must fancy himself as the ultimate modern day Bond nemesis. Guns, girls and paperwork – Is it possible to be bad at being bad? Steve is about to find out. “This book has three themes which could easily make it fall apart but it doesn't. It’s held together with tight prose and so many laughs that I giggled through most of the book!” – Anna R (Amazon 5* review)

When you hit your 30s, it's like society flips a switch and cranks up the pressure. Suddenly, you're asking yourself those ridiculous questions: "Shouldn't I be married or at least dating someone? Am I destined to die alone? Why does everyone interesting seem to be already taken? Shouldn't I be successful in my career already? Is it too late to follow my dreams? Am I the only one feeling completely lost? " Well, that's exactly what Sally and Jack were thinking while swiping through their dating apps. Little do they know, love might be closer than they expect.

Aria used to spend her days quietly, lost in her own little world. She was shy, reserved, and comfortable staying in the background - until life reminded her that staying the same would get her nowhere. Rejections came one after another. Failures kept piling up. Nights were spent overthinking and days wasted on endless scrolling. But little by little, Aria began to change. Through awkward interviews, small wins, and moments of doubt, she slowly worked on becoming the person she truly wanted to be - someone glowing, confident, hungry for learning, striving to be physically fit, and committed to living a healthier lifestyle. Deep down, she also dreamed of becoming financially secure and building the skills that would help her create the life she's always imagined. This is a story about falling, standing up again, and taking one small step at a time toward the future she dreams of.

This isn't a story. It's a mindset shift. A motivational guide for women ready to reclaim their confidence, energy, and power ; without apology. No fiction. Just truth, tools, and the glow-up you've been waiting for
