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.

Soft, messy, beautiful.

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.

A line. A folder. A decision. In a world where borders speak louder than people, lives are reduced to paperwork and waiting becomes a form of punishment.

Every day, people travel in Mumbai's local trains carrying dreams, exhaustion, hope, and silent pain. This is not a story I learned. This is a story I witnessed- through faces, silence, and moments that pass between stations. I don't know their names. I don't know their stories completely. But I've seen enough to believe that every face carries a battle. This is what I saw- every day- inside a train that never stops.

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.

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.

As the hours unfold, what begins as a casual send-off transforms into a reckoning - with money, love, masculinity, and the ghosts of their pasts. The Boys Are Fine is a modern South African narrative about brotherhood, success, and the silence that men mistake for strength. It's heartfelt, funny, and painfully honest - a reminder that "fine" doesn't always mean okay.
