    Title: Love Author: William Sanders Description: They were born into wealth. Raised by expectations. And quietly starved of sincerity. Charles Leigh has spent his life searching for meaning, afraid that everything he is might lead nowhere. Eleanor Sinclair has spent her life meeting perfection, afraid that no one has ever truly chosen her. They meet at nineteen-when they are already tired, already guarded, already afraid of hope. This is not a story about money. It's a story about longing. About pressure. About two people who had everything, except the one thing they were looking for. A story about finding meaning in another person. A story about love that doesn't demand perfection.

    He watches people. Their smiles. Their kindness. Their honesty. He believes silence keeps him untouched-until someone looks back. Someone sees through the mask he never thought he wore, forcing him to question what remains when you observe life instead of living it. A psychological coming-of-age story about identity, quiet alienation, and the danger of being invisible for too long. Some masks hide you. Others erase you. A slow-burn psychological story intended for mature young adult readers. This is a slow, introspective story. It focuses on psychology, silence, and subtle moments rather than action. If you enjoy stories that make you uncomfortable in a quiet way-this is for you. #1 in silence #1 in perception

    I loved how beautiful my name once. Now I wonder if it ever belonged to me. My name is Suhani. Growing up, I believed beautiful names were meant for beautiful lives. But reality taught me that I was never the favorite not my parents' not my friends' not even God's. I was always there, always trying, but never chosen. That's why I hate stories where the soft-spoken, broken girl turns out to be God's favorite and gets everything in the end. Real life doesn't work like that. At least, it never did for me. And then, suddenly, everything started changing. My parents want me back. My best friend whom I loved quietly started returning my feelings. The love I waited for my entire life finally showed up. But instead of happiness, I felt fear. It isn't thrilling. It isn't exciting. It doesn't feel like a dream come true. It feels...wrong. Why now? Why all at once? Is this God's way of apologizing for all the years of my loneliness? Or is something bad waiting for me at the end of this sudden warmth? I don't know if they truly want me or if I'm just a pawn in someone else's secret game. What I do know is this: I will not let anyone ruin my life anymore. I will not accept love at the cost of my freedom. I will question. I will search. I will find the truth. This is not a love story. This is my story of fear, awakening, and choosing myself. Will you walk with me through this rollercoaster, where love feels dangerous, faith feels fragile, and the truth might change everything? ✨ Because sometimes, being noticed is far more terrifying than being invisible. ✨

    A Boy in Pieces follows Tom, a quiet boy shaped by loss, neglect, and long stretches of silence. He lives carefully, keeps distance, and measures every word, since pain taught him caution early. His days revolve around routine and isolation, with memories intruding when he least expects them. Connection unsettles him, yet he aches for it, torn between wanting to be seen and fearing the cost. As small moments of care enter his life, Tom resists, tests boundaries, and slowly confronts the truth of his past. Healing does not arrive clean or complete. The story traces survival, self awareness, and the fragile process of learning worth while carrying scars.

    These are letters I wrote to no one in particular - about kindness, grief, boundaries, stillness, and the courage of staying soft. I'm simply sharing small pieces of my heart, in case they keep someone company for a while. You're welcome to read them as if they were meant for you. And if they reach you at the right moment, I'm glad.

    Almost Human is a collection of poems about survival, softness, and the quiet and necessary distance that comes after harm. Moving through images of war rooms and infirmaries, candlelight and starlight, imitation and restraint, these poems touch on what it means to remain human in the presence of those who perhaps never were. This is not a book about revenge or resolution, but about observation, integration, and learning how to stop offering light to things that only know how to consume it. For readers who have loved deeply, waited too long, survived quietly, and learned that healing does not always arrive loudly; Almost Human is a record of what remains.

    { img source: Pinterest - Artist: Unknown } --- What happens when the smallest commander carries the heaviest name? 𝖪𝖺𝗍𝗒𝗎𝗌𝗁𝖺 𝗑 𝖪𝖺𝗍𝗒𝗎𝗌𝗁𝖺 follows Pravda High's fiercest leader through her most challenging battlefield: her own reflection. Armed with nothing but an ushanka, unshakable pride, and a mirror that talks back, Katyusha wages daily war against self-doubt, historical legacy, and the occasional museum exhibit. From morning affirmations that terrify her vice-commander to philosophical debates with Soviet rocket launchers, this is Girls und Panzer as you've never seen it. Warning: This Katyusha is wildly OOC. Our Katyusha commands tanks, not therapy sessions with herself. But here, she does both-because carrying a name that means war, hope, and empire requires more than tactical genius. It requires negotiating with the legends living inside you.

      Parts 21
    In the shadowed hours when sleep evades the weary soul, we builds altars from the fragments of a fractured world-raw free verse that confronts the ego's crushing weight and the digital haze of modern exile. Drawing from the grit of noir nights and the quiet fire of Catholic introspection, these poems unearth resilience amid PTSD's echoes, Ozark folklore's whispers, and a faith that questions yet clings to Christ's sacrifice in the stranger's gaze. Here, beauty blooms in imperfection: an outlaw's crown forged from internal turmoil, societal manipulations, and the slow, deliberate repair of a GenX heart scarred by life's dust and screen-lit nihilism. With a gravelly edge and a defiant grace, it champions practical gratitude over grand illusions-inviting you to linger at these insomniac altars, where transformation whispers louder than the chaos. Perfect for readers craving poetry that bleeds honesty, critiques the rush of progress, and finds divinity in the everyday grind. Discover the spark of one blood's cry in a collection that lingers like a half-remembered dream.
