~ Liminal Space: the in-between moments. A period of discomfort, of waiting and of transformation.~ Daisy has a love-hate relationship with art. Stuck in the in-between of who she is and who she wants to be, she visits a gallery in an attempt to awaken the side of her that feels is more interesting and more in tune with both the workings of the world and her own self. She expects to be alone, but what happens when she meets someone between those white walls who is everything she desires to be? ** A short, unchaptered story, inspired by this post on tumblr: http://heart.tumblr.com/post/148851947007/places-where-reality-is-a-bit-altered **

Excerpts from books I'll never write, poems, scenes and imaginings - all written in the early, untouchable hours of the early morning. Basically a brutally honest recount of where my head is in the twelve-four.

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION How do you trust the ground when all you've known is flight? In this breathtaking debut, Leigh Ansell has created a compelling, heartbreaking, and truly engaging story about a young girl used to flying high only to be faced with living life with her two feet firmly on the ground . . . Seventeen-year-old Corey Ryder can't remember a time when she wasn't gliding through the air of Cirque Mystique's big top. As a trapeze artist in a traveling circus, Corey wakes up every day in a different place, buzzing for the moment she can suspend gravity during the night's performance. When the circus pulls into small-town Sherwood, California, everything seems normal - aside from meeting the exceptionally cute Luke Everett at a local diner. But that night, in the midst of the performance, tragedy strikes and flames overtake the tent. While Corey narrowly escapes, in the ashes of the circus pitch lies the only home she's ever known. Repeatedly thrown out of her comfort zone, Corey must learn how to push toward her future without forgetting her past, what it means to be a daughter to a mother she's never known, and how to navigate the confusing magic of first love, even as she performs the high-wire act of being true to who you really are.
