Bunch of short stuffs I wrote. From the first to the last, and I hope I will see the development compared to the fifteen year old me, to the future me.

*Cover by the uber-talented Pixie Stormcrow!* (covers.pstormcrow.com) All bad decisions are born out of one key moment. A moment, thoughtless or not, where you choose wrong over right. Evil over good. You roll the dice and brace for the consequences, and that's exactly what Jolie and Carson did the day they met by mistake. One wrong number, one simple conversation over text, and their lives as they knew it were gone. Jolie, a miserable housewife who clings to the bottle just to get by, and Carson, a doctor who's stitched together the perfect facade to hide his failed marriage from his children and colleagues. Loneliness consumes them both, and when they find an unlikely friend at the end of a stranger's phone number, they cling to whatever connection they can get. Neither intended to cross any lines, but then again, good people rarely intend to do bad things. For Jolie and Carson, their key moment was fast and not at all easy. And the consequences might be even worse. ~~~~~~ The Wrong Number short story was one of the winners of the Forbidden Love Contest in 2018, and now an expanded full novel on Radish!

Elusive, ethereal, fragile and hard to catch: Fleeting Thoughts, the butterflies of the mind. This book is but a bag for thoughts, rants, and shorts, which I write for whatever reason. I know that there's no huge audience for stuff like that, but some things just need writing... Some of these stories are competition entries. Contents: 1. Single Soldier Armor: A SciFi short story. (A finalist in @ScienceFiction's #warriorpunk competition in November 2016.) 2. Bookclubbing: Some totally subjective and personal thoughts on how to get the best out of a book club. 3. Jane and Jerome: That's literally a dark one. It won first place in @mystery 's writing prompt 5, "It's All About Descriptions". 4. Call Center: My submission to the competition "Love Conversation Contest" over at the @Romance profile. It's a love story consisting completely of dialogue. 5. The Unburdening of Le Pont Des Arts: Just something that was begging to be written. 6. Where Wearwolves Walk With Vile Veerwolves: Now, that one is difficult to summarize. But it is basically my shoutout to use the #grownupreads tag 7. Sex on the Beach: My contribution to the #bodyonthebeach (Washed Away) competition 8. Furia & Ferdinand: My contribution to the Forbidden Love prompt. 9. You're the Last One: My submission to the "Kiss Me at the End of the World" contest.

She knew that no matter how much time passed, how many days or months or years passed, an epic love like the one she had couldn't be forgotten.

And it changed when she met Cian. Completely different from her former lover, yet she felt that bond. Would she run away? Or would she learn to embrace the future he was beginning to show her? Would she be able to leave the confinements of her solitude? Or would she be stuck inside the castle that she had built around herself; forever suspended in a moment, in a love that had been lost to life forever?
