    Kai Trump, granddaughter of America's 47th president, has had her life carefully planned out before her from the moment her family stepped into the political scene. Like any picture-perfect Republican teenager hailing from American royalty, she would do whatever necessary to meet expectations and ensure her family's love and acceptance. Becoming the poster child of her grandfather's campaign is a bearable responsibility... until she begins to catch feelings for her very perfect, very off-limits best friend. spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/686zoODO5lFDuyPEfvCL2M?si=7695796480744647&pt=0376430b16d4afa3e09cd776d4e1b45c next update: august 12

    Once a devoted monk, now exiled and nameless, Sanwu walks through the ruins of a world he helped break. Branded The Unbound, haunted by dreams that aren't his own, he alone hears the bells that no longer ring. When a girl with a cursed spirit crosses his path, and a child who whispers to ghosts begins to follow, Sanwu finds himself at the heart of a growing storm. Relic hunters chase echoes of power. A death cult rises in the ashes. And the War God he once released threatens to rise again. To stop it, Sanwu must sacrifice more than his past. He must decide if redemption is worth becoming no one at all. A quiet, spiritual fantasy about memory, guilt, and the weight of names. When the bells call again, will he answer? A Korean-inspired dark fantasy.

    Sypnosis: જ⁀➴ Li Song, a modern journalist, once wished to uncover forgotten stories. By chance she received a relic notebook, and after traveling through time, she met its owner-a young man with a smile at the corner of his eyes. He was destined to rest forever in the winter of 1940, in war-torn Ningcheng. Li Song: This is the most unusual interviewee I've ever met. Song Fengnian, a youth of the old era, once disguised as a carriage driver, pulled a strange girl from a pile of corpses. That day, to escape chaos, she played his fiancée. Later, they braved disasters, crossed rivers, endured war, and fought side by side. Song Fengnian: She writes in that odd interview diary and fears I'll die on the way. But I find her... endearing. He never imagined the lonely roads he walked would one day bring him love. And through her eyes, he glimpsed a peaceful future he could never reach. "Run forward, My Dearest Ode. Return to your time, where there is no war. Live the life I, and countless others here, never had. One day, I'll become the free wind, the blooming flowers... and come find you."

    In a land where prophecy rules, Efilio bears the crescent's weight. Sefina, fire-born and hidden, chooses love over fear and fate. Moon and Venus whisper vows, their union secret, fragile, true. But betrayal darkens the horizon- and dawn departs, leaving night to rue. Both bear the power to shield and save, to fight and win, though scarred by wars. Immortal flames and moonlit courage, yet even celestials are marred by scars.

    This is an English translation of my own fiction novel: Mari Kita Bully Demi Kebaikan. What happens when a single stare can change a person? Joko Wiryawan, an elementary school teacher famous for his death stare, has never laid a hand on a student. But one look from him... and a kid instantly feels guilty for the sins of their entire bloodline. From that stare came the "Social Stare Movement" - a silent act that made rule-breakers crumble under their own shame. But once the movement went viral and the government hijacked it, everything fell apart. Honest people started dying. Elementary kids took revenge with kitchen knives. And those who only wanted to look "morally perfect" ended up killing the very idea of goodness itself. A funny, bitter, and painfully honest story about morality, social media, and the danger of trying to be the most righteous person on the internet. Because sometimes... the one that needs saving the most isn't the world - but yourself.

Whether it's intentional or not, driven by desire or no reason at all, You stood out the most. To Your eyes, to the ends of Your teeth, to the way You behave, to the way You grin. You were quite the popular kid, but for the wrong reasons. You were known because You were feared. It wasn't Your ability that scared them, no, it was Your bloodlust. They could understand how Your powers work, but they couldn't grasp why You acted so psychotic and went on a rampage every chance You got. You were far from normal, far worse than them. You were self-aware of that fact and yet You didn't care, because it was the real You. However, Your life seems to start taking a turn when a new girl enrolls into the school.

    (Take note that the author (me) will upload a new poem every day for twelve consecutive days until 12 poems have been uploaded, indicating the completion of the poetry series/collection 'Twelve Letters') Synopsis: Twelve Letters is a collection of confessions, memories, and goodbyes written in the quiet of nights that feel too long. Each letter is a fragment of life-small, raw, and aching-capturing moments of love lost, words unsaid, and the weight of waiting for something that never comes. Some letters are to people who are gone, some to people who never knew, and some to the writer themselves, trying to make sense of a heart that keeps breaking. The collection doesn't try to fix anything. It just holds the sadness, the awkwardness, the fleeting happiness, and the tiny sparks of hope. Through these letters, the reader walks alongside someone learning to let go, to forgive, and slowly, maybe, to heal.

    In a world divided by distance, language, and time, Jaden Greyhawk learns that love is not always enough - but it is never forgotten. Born to a surgeon father in the deserts of New Mexico, Jaden is raised between tradition and hope. At eleven, he is sent abroad as an exchange student to the snowy quiet of Willow Creek, a small American town where belonging is earned slowly and kindness becomes its own kind of courage. There, he meets Kae, a bright and fiercely gentle girl who helps him navigate the awkward, often lonely edges of growing up. What begins as friendship blossoms into something unspoken, a love that lingers between silence and understanding. But as years pass - from adolescence to the trials of med school, from innocent connection to adult heartbreak - life tests Jaden in ways he never imagined. He will lose, learn, love again, and come to understand that some people never truly leave us; they simply remain in the quiet places we learn to listen. A sweeping story of youth, belonging, and the merciless beauty of fate, The Quiet Sound of Rain traces the long arc of one man's life - from desert sun to city light - exploring how heartbreak can hollow us, heal us, and sometimes make us whole.

    Seventeen-year-old Inara Solace has always found comfort in quiet corners - notebooks, music, and skies that never stop changing. When she meets Elias Rowan, the new boy with messy blond hair and wild ideas, her carefully built world tilts. Elias is everything she isn't - spontaneous, magnetic, full of restless energy. He takes her to hidden rooftops, teaches her that love doesn't have to be perfect to be real, and promises her that some souls are meant to find each other. Their love story feels endless - until the night it ends. A car crash. A silence too heavy to break. And suddenly, Inara is left with nothing but memories, a half-written letter, and the unbearable question: how do you live when your reason for living is gone? As seasons change, she learns to walk through grief one heartbeat at a time - through guilt, through forgiveness, through learning that maybe loving someone isn't about holding on, but learning how to let go. Before the Fall is the beginning of a love story told in three parts - about the people who change us, the ones we lose, and the second chances we never see coming.
