There is a small store that appears without warning. It looks like a stationery shop and a convenience store combined - ordinary, quiet, easy to overlook. Most people walk past it without ever noticing. Inside, the shelves hold simple objects. Each one carries a memory someone once believed was lost forever. People never come searching for the store. They find it when they are tired. When they are uncertain. When something inside them is quietly breaking. They leave remembering something important and forgetting the store ever existed. The Store of Misplaced Memories is a collection of interconnected short stories about forgotten moments, gentle magic, and the memories that return when we need them most. Best read slowly. Author's Note: This story is written for readers who enjoy soft, reflective narratives. There are no villains here only people, memories, and the quiet magic hidden in ordinary things. © All Rights Reserved. This is an original work of fiction.

Beneath the Third Deck is a gripping historical fiction novel told through the eyes of a young third-class passenger aboard the RMS Titanic. Leaving behind everything he has ever known, he boards the world's largest and most celebrated ship with nothing but a suitcase, a fading photograph, and a dream of starting a new life in America. Far below the glittering chandeliers and grand staircases, he discovers a different world - one filled with crowded hallways, restless hope, unlikely friendships, and the quiet struggles of people chasing survival and second chances. As he explores the vast ship, he begins to see the sharp divide between classes, the fragile nature of dreams, and the powerful human connections that form even in the most uncertain places. But as the voyage continues, an unshakable feeling grows within him - a sense that this "unsinkable" ship is carrying its passengers toward something far darker than anyone could imagine. Blending rich historical detail with emotional storytelling, Beneath the Third Deck is a powerful tale of hope, love, class, and fate set against one of the most tragic events in history.

About the Poem "The Different Price of No" was born from something I witnessed at home today. While my maid was working, I found myself thinking about how differently the word "no" can affect people from different working backgrounds. Even when extra money is offered for an additional task, sometimes a simple request can turn into an argument or refusal simply because it wasn't part of the original agreement. It made me think about my own life. I, Lavanya Y. Rao, earn ₹15,000 a month working at a company in Okhla while living in Hauz Khas. From that salary, I manage my own transportation, and sometimes even my food when I don't carry it from home. There are no excuses when work demands more-I have to keep going because saying "no" can come with consequences. At the same time, I found myself wondering about the people who work in several homes and earn from each one. I don't believe anyone should be treated without respect, but I also feel that extra work, especially when extra money is offered and other work is taken off their hands, shouldn't always become a reason for resentment. This poem is simply my reflection on that difference-the different weight that "no" carries depending on where we stand. About the Author I am Lavanya Y.

Everyone lives a life worth telling... even the quiet ones. A Normal Life is a collection of gentle, random, and painfully real moments-tiny victories, silent heartbreaks, awkward insecurities, simple joys, and the kind of thoughts we only admit to ourselves. Each chapter follows a different character living in the same world, crossing paths in small ways, growing in big ways, and trying-like all of us-to feel okay. No grand plot. Just life. Soft, messy, beautiful.

📌 Versão em português disponível no perfil do autor. He didn't seek his life in grand adventures, he built it from his own mistakes. Through work in distant lands and disappointments that helped him grow, this is the story of an inexperienced young man who, over time, became a better person. Traveling the world was valuable, but the real discovery was realizing that the most important thing isn't the destination, but the journey itself.

In a morning that feels like every other, nea Sandu wakes before the world does. Not because he has somewhere to be-only because this is what old age does: it steals your sleep and leaves you with rituals. He moves carefully through the apartment, afraid to wake his wife, and clings to the small routines that still make the day feel orderly: a note on the fridge, a trip to the shop, tea prepared in advance, newspapers read in the cold air of the park. But outside the safety of habit, the world has changed its face. The park no longer feels friendly. People considered familiar are suddenly strangers. Words arrive too quickly, sharper than intended. And behind ordinary gestures-buying groceries, reading headlines, sitting at the backgammon table-something begins to drift out of place. Told with restraint, warmth, and a subtle tension that grows between the lines, this short story captures the fragile border between everyday normality and the moment it starts to crack. It's a portrait of aging, grief, and quiet devotion-of a man trying to hold onto love, dignity, and control, even as his own mind and body begin to betray him. A simple day, written like a whisper-until you realize the silence is doing all the talking.

For nearly a year, Emma Reed has lived inside the same routine. Wake up. Go to work. Come home. Pretend she's fine. Most people think she's moved on. They think time did what time is supposed to do. What they don't know is that grief isn't always loud. Sometimes it hides in unopened boxes. Sometimes it waits in empty rooms. Sometimes it follows you home and sits quietly beside you while the world keeps moving forward. When a new neighbor moves into the apartment across the hall, Emma expects nothing more than awkward elevator rides and polite small talk. Instead, a simple act of kindness begins unraveling the walls she's spent years building around herself. But healing isn't about becoming who you were before. It's about learning who you are after everything changed. A story about loneliness, resilience, unexpected friendship, and the quiet courage it takes to keep going when no one sees the battle.

A collection of standalone tales exploring the many faces of goodbye - some gentle, some painful, all transformative. Each story marks a quiet boundary: the last breath of what was, and the first step into what comes next. Here, "goodbye" is more than a word; it's an action, a turning point, a quiet moment where an ending and a beginning meet.

I, Lavanya Y. Rao, have just started writing, and this poem is something very close to me. It is inspired by what I have seen from my own window-the workers I watched every morning, their quiet lives, and the thoughts that stayed with me as I watched them work. Sometimes we see people every day without ever knowing their stories. This poem is my small attempt to turn that experience into words. I hope you will read it, and if you like it, please vote and leave a comment. Your support would mean a lot to me as I begin my journey as a writer. ❤️

Dancing Through College is not the story people think it will be. After high school, Emily does everything right-moves out, enrolls in college, gets a job. When bills arrive faster than paychecks, an unexpected opportunity off Highway 155 in East Texas changes the course of her life. By night, she becomes Holly, dancing at a small strip club to pay her way through school. By day, she's a college student learning who she is and where she's going. What begins as a way to survive becomes something deeper. Inside the club, Emily discovers that most people aren't chasing fantasy. They're chasing conversation. Comfort. A place where someone remembers their name and listens without judgment. Between awkward song requests, wobbling heels, dressing-room wisdom, and late-night talks, she learns lessons no classroom could teach-about loneliness, resilience, boundaries, and when it's time to walk away. Written with humor, warmth, and honesty, Dancing Through College is a coming-of-age memoir about work, dignity, and the quiet power of listening. It's about women looking out for each other, men learning to speak, and a chapter of life that did exactly what it was meant to do. It wasn't for everybody. But for her, it worked.
