    Midnight, 1950s. A small-town diner glows against the dark, neon humming, coffee steaming. Kat, the young waitress, works the graveyard shift, pouring cup after cup for strangers who never quite belong. But the Midnight Café is not an ordinary stop on the road. Every customer brings a story with them, stories of highways that never end, shadows that follow too closely, ghosts that wait for you to blink. Some are confessions. Some are hauntings. Some are judgments. Kat listens, half-waitress, half-confessor, never sure if she's serving the living or the dead. And as the nights stretch on, she begins to wonder if the diner itself is a crossroads between this world and the next. Black Coffee is a literary horror serial where every chapter begins with an order and ends with a silence you cannot shake. New chapters every Monday!

    Margo has always dreamed of competing in the Sorcerer's Duels at her university, desperate to prove everyone wrong and become the kind of sorceress her late father used to tell stories about. But no matter how hard she trains, she's never passed the initiation trials. When she watches another woman succeed, only to be rejected anyway, Margo begins to question whether the Duels were ever meant for someone like her. Just as she's ready to give up, a surprising opportunity arises-and with it, an unlikely partnership that rekindles her hope. With her new teammate by her side, Margo finally earns a place in the legendary Duels. Meanwhile, a frustratingly charming newspaper intern from one of her classes keeps showing up at the worst possible times. As their paths continue to cross and sparks begin to fly, the two uncover troubling secrets beneath the Duels' glittering surface, forcing Margo to rethink what it truly means to prove herself.

    *Warning* in no way to I think this story is real. It is a fictional story that just happens to have real people in it. Description- "When you left it hurt Taylor. But she had an album to put out, she couldn't just shutdown like normal. So she pushed it aside. She convinced herself that the pain wasn't there." "That's why her new album is folk, because it's easier to pretend her songs are about nothing real then something too real. She's broken. But you can fix her."

    A Christmas song for people who don't trust Christmas songs. Set on a snow-choked street beneath flickering neon, this piece follows the quiet places where grace tends to show up unannounced-barrooms, back pews, midnight prayers said under breath. It's a winter hymn shaped by doubt, mercy with dirty hands, and a hope that doesn't arrive polished or on time. Written in the spirit of noir folk and barroom gospel, these lyrics linger between belief and disbelief, asking a simple question: if love knocked like this, would you let it stay? For anyone who's ever felt more honest in the dark than in the light.
