In Thriller Suite -- appearing serially for the first time on Wattpad -- Margaret Atwood has gathered these new poems inspired by her long history as a reader of strange tales, from 19th century gothic classics to ghost stories to crime fiction and thrillers. Poems that cross thresholds...

Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy have lived similar lives, though they never realized it. All their lives, they've asked the same questions, though they never realized it. What do you do when the world turns against you? When your protectors become your betrayers and condemn you? What do you do when your world comes crashing down on you, and the darkness threatens to suck you into its grasp? Is there any hope, any kindness, any light to be found? Can the unloved find love in the unlikeliest of places? Can enemies put aside differences and learn to trust each other through friendship? Will the darkness that lingers eventually be vanquished, or will it claim victory forever? Will you be able to escape the darkness? Is it even possible? Little do they know that these very questions will bring them together on a journey like no other.

A assemblage of poetic forms; entry for the 2012 Attys

The first in my series, A light in the Dark, the series will span through Buffy and into Supernatural. This was my first fanfic so I hope it's liked! This story is set on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "I only have eyes for you", Season 2, with a little Winchester fun :)

Gwen lives in the out skirts of Dublin in a insufferably small town, that is until she finds something she thought was impossible. (also a small footnote before reading my story the significance of a cress flower is because it's name literally means security/protection...when you read the story you'll understand why i tell you this)
