A young man's life takes a dark turn after a tragic accident leaves him with a rare and unsettling physical condition. Plagued by social anxiety, he retreats from society, hiding himself away to avoid the stares and whispers he fears his condition might attract. His world is small, confined, and lonely, drained of colour and hope. But everything shifts when a new neighbour moves in - someone whose presence may offer a chance for change. Could this unexpected connection bring light back into his life, or will his unique affliction forever bind him to a world of solitude? Updates will be on Mondays and Fridays. Narrations will be in Tamil + English. -Mahish

Some nightmares don't end when you wake up. They follow you. They sit in your chest, in your breath, in the way your eyes scan a room without you even realizing it. The chase doesn't stop just because your eyes open. The fear doesn't disappear just because the world is quiet again. It lingers-subtle, heavy, alive beneath the surface. This story is not about a man chasing someone through the dark. It's about what that chase means. It's about being misunderstood... blamed... unheard... and forced into survival mode when no one else steps in. It's about the silence of people who see you struggling and choose not to help. It's about the pressure of defending yourself in a world that has already made up its mind about you. And deeper than that-it's about abandonment. The kind that doesn't always look obvious. The kind that shows up in denial. The kind that leaves you questioning your reality. This is the story of what happens when fear and abandonment collide at the same time-when your body is running, but your mind is trying to make sense of something much bigger. Because monsters aren't born. They're built. One moment at a time. One experience at a time. One survival instinct at a time. And eventually... you don't just run anymore. You learn. You adapt. You control it.

A world divided. A bitter love. A deadly competition. And no one knows who'll survive. In a world that's divided into four kingdoms, Drakenholt, Aloria, Caldraeth, and Zarynthia, you're defined by your magic. Melody LeClair is a Null-a person with no magic at all-and yet, she's a force to be reckoned with. Trapped in the brutal illegal arenas of the grimy and poor Zarynthia, she fights for money, desperate to care for herself and her younger brother, Ian. But when Melody defeats a legendary Drak with an illusion-creating ability, her life changes forever. Her victory catches the attention of the rich and powerful Drakenholt kingdom, and suddenly, Melody is thrust into a deadly competition known as The Culling. Chosen as one of the four representatives from Zarynthia, she must face off against powerful opponents from other kingdoms, all while navigating dangerous alliances. One of which is Thorne Craine, a prince from the Drakenholt kingdom and the exact symbol of everything Melody has been raised to despise, who sees Melody's fierceness as both a challenge and an opportunity. But as The Culling progresses, it becomes clear that only the strongest will survive. With lives at stake and betrayal lurking at every turn, Melody and Thorne must fight not just for victory, but for their very lives. Trust no one. Survive The Culling.

Trilby didn't lose herself all at once. No. The wheels began turning slowly but surely, when she met with the father she'd last seen as a mere toddler and the family he chose over her. They are nothing like her, and they make sure she knows it. From the moment Trilby steps into their perfect home, all dripping wet while dragging her drenched and heavily packed suitcases on their grey Persian carpet, she is not so subtly glared at. She is condemned. Her fate, sealed. In a mansion built on appearances and silence, she quickly becomes the cold reminder of what her father, their dad, once did. Every look strips her down, every dinner turns into a quiet execution and it's not long before every argument is about her. Surrounded by cold smiles, unspoken resentments, a family that wants absolutely nothing to do with her and nowhere to go after her mother blatantly forsook her for her new husband and her two step children, Trilby mistakes survival with self-destruction. By the time her mother, the reason Trilby is with her father's other family, notices or her father finally looks closer, the signs are no longer warnings but wreckage. Trilby is broken beyond repair and a long lost course. Yet somewhere in the quiet aftermath of her destruction, the world seems to hold its breath, waiting. Trilby's life, once a predictable arc of reckless choices and fleeting pleasures, is now teetered on an edge she hadn't realized existed. A pivot she didn't see coming, a whisper of something, or better yet a certain someone, who'd always been there, but she'd been too blind to note. But now, faced by her new cold reality of raw pain and emptiness, his presence seemed to pulse with unspoken significance. As though he had been waiting for this exact moment, waiting for her to stumble, to break, to see. And in that realization, chilling yet oddly comforting, Trilby feels the first strange tug of a new path opening, one that might lead to more ruin or revelation...

She was taught to be small. To be quiet. To hate her own reflection. Amara is a plus-size college girl drowning in shame, bullying, and invisible wounds.

If you've ever hated your body, felt unwanted, or struggled just to survive - this story is for you.

Kaira has always been strong - or at least that's the lie she learned to live with. Because strength means nothing when the enemy you fear... lives inside your own mind. Her past doesn't visit her in memories. It attacks her in dreams, in the silence between breaths, and in the voices that don't always feel like her own. Some days she wakes as herself. Some days... she doesn't. There is a child inside her who cries to be held. A protector who whispers warnings in the dark. And a darker presence - the one with trembling hands, the one who remembers the night Kaira swears never happened. Everyone tells her to "face her fears." But how do you confront a truth buried in the versions of you that rise when you're too weak to fight? Kaira has spent years running, healing, breaking, trying again. But wounds don't close just because she's exhausted. Some pains don't fade - they wait. And when the memories finally claw their way back, Kaira must decide whether to survive them... or take revenge on the past that stole her life. This is the story of a girl at war with her own mind - and the selves who might save her... or destroy her.

"Are you going to leave me, brother?" i asked in my childlike voice. "Let go of my arm, kayda. I need to go." he replied, not even looking at me. His face remained blank. "No, no, no! You can't go now! Daddy needs your help! Mommy's too sick to help and i can't do anything!" by now, tears were freely flowing down my face. "I won't say it again. Let go. Now. I'm leaving." again, he didn't even turn to me. "B-but... you can't! You just CAN'T!" as soon as i yelled that, he stood up from the snow covered bench and slapped me, his pointed gloves scratching my face, making me bleed.

He stared at my with his dark green eyes that were once full of hope and turned, not looking back. i have no idea what i'm doing. this is for wattys2018 btw

Before I Go is the final chapter in Darvaty Fuller's brutally honest journey through the darkest seasons of his life. This biography opens the door to the silent battles most people never see - the kind fought in the mind, the heart, and the quiet moments when the world expects you to smile while everything inside you is breaking. Through raw memories and unfiltered reflection, Darvaty guides readers through a storm of emotions: anxiety that tightens its grip without warning, the unpredictable highs and lows of bipolar struggle, anger that burns like a wildfire, and the crushing weight of pain that comes from betrayal, loss, and the constant noise of critics and haters. Every chapter steps deeper into the war within - a place where doubt, fear, and darkness try to take control. But this story is not just about suffering. It is about confrontation. It is about staring down the demons that live inside your thoughts and refusing to let them define who you are. Before I Go is a journey through inner warfare - the kind that leaves scars no one else can see. It is the final word of a man who chose to speak openly about the struggles many people hide. For anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by their own mind, trapped in cycles of pain, or forced to fight battles nobody understands, this book offers something rare: honesty. Sometimes the darkest chapters of a life are the ones that reveal the strongest truth.
