    Born, adopted, and raised in London, Ira has nobody to call her own when her mom passes away from pancreatic cancer. After a fallout with her uncle, who had promised to look after her in India, she finds herself in a strange country, desperately alone. There, she meets Junoon - a skinny and traumatized boy who has not allowed himself to feel happy since causing the accident that killed his girlfriend but spared him. In the months that follow, they slowly become friends, and then a little more. While learning to stand upright and coming out of their darkness, they fall in love with each other. Fast forward five years and the happy couple is now engaged. Junoon and Ira only have each other to call their own. When hunting for her birth family, Ira finds out that she has Huntington's disease, an incurable and progressive neurodegenerative disorder. In an instant, her 'happily ever after' morphs into a dark tale - a future where she is a writhing mess unable to exercise control over her mind or body, and her husband is chained to her in the name of love. A decade into her marriage, watching Junoon make sacrifices with a smile eats her up from the inside - from walking on eggshells around her temper to letting go of his dream of becoming a dad. As Ira's symptoms worsen, she decides that the day her husband's pity surpasses his love, she will end her life. When she drops this bombshell on Junoon, the world around him starts to crumble. The lines between love and selfishness disappear as his logical and loving selves collide. Eventually, he must decide between two impossible choices - watching Huntington's take her life or killing her. [[word count ~55,500]]

    **THIS BOOK CONTAINS LANGUAGE AND SCENES THAT SOME MAY FIND OFFENSIVE!** Graydens/The Tedious Life Of Ashley Astley was a book I had originally started during lockdown. Originally supposed to be a diary based on the peculiar, socially deficit 12/13 year old girl Ashley/Ash I had then got carried away and produced both first and third person accounts of the goings on - this however got too repetitive as I was basically repeating the same thing but in different perspectives. So now the story is split into two books: the original idea 'The Tedious Life Of Ashley Astley' and now 'Graydens' (the fictional school in which Ashley attends) which still has a basis around Ashley (in it's 3rd person perspective) also describes the goings on of the students and even some of the teachers in the shabby dysfunctional school based somewhere in the south east of England (bordering London) however never specified exactly where. Unfortunately many of the early chapters had been corrupted and so I have to rewrite them both in Graydens and TTLOAA. Fortunately some of the chapters are either fully intact or have partial snippets of the story/stories which I shall add whilst I rewrite the rest. This book is continuous and so 3 or so years later I'm still writing on and off. I have no idea when this will be finished or if it will be finished. Likely these stories will be a series in the foreseeable future... Although this is my first story I'll publish here, it isn't my first overall. I have written many stories since I was a child/teen (pencil/pen and paper) These are when I decided to pick up my virtual pen and start writing again now as an young adult.

    My dissertation was rated a 1:1 an it's especially helpful to read if you identify as female and have a hard time trying to get loved ones and friends to believe you have autism. That's actually a fundamental basis of my research. I knew from 12 but didn't get diagnosed until 17 because of those unfortunate social biases. I'm sharing this because I needed this when I was growing up and by "this" I mean something that is not too hard to digest, but accurate and educational, because sometimes understanding is all you need to stay afloat. My original story's title "I won't force you to love me" is kind of confrontational, so it should be interpreted as "I will not be a different person from the one I am, just to gain your approval". There are many more insights that might be added to the end, which couldn't fit in the 10-12k word limit. I'm just so excited to finally share it all, since I'm finally passed the assessment phase.

    Nihilist poetry for the lost souls x=x Healing elixirs for the forgotten x=x There will be mental illness mentions in here, I haven't been 'masking' my neurodiversity up to this point, and I won't start now. Therefore, I will put a slight trigger warning on this book, because different things trigger different people. However, if you are wanting completely blunt and forwardly depressing poetry, you'd best look for that in my 'Mental Illness Poetry' book, and not this one. x=x The following a/n explains the method I am using to differentiate between coded and uncoded chapters. Not necessary to derive meaning from this book, the codes just add more. It may be a little existential and sometimes nuánced in a rather cryptographical fashion (meaning there are codes and extra verses within the uncrypted text), but that's kind of how I think. And the chapters with codes might not always have a clue in the title, but there will always be a '(...?...)' after the chapter title of the coded ones so you can differentiate between coded and regular.

    After Queen Corvina bans the use of any magic, all the gifted must go into hiding or risk being found and captured. Not long before the magic ban, a mysterious prophecy was spoken, describing the end of the reign of Queen Corvina. Phoenix has been working her whole life to try and discover who the prophecy is about, who will lead the gifted to safety and end Corvina's reign. Now that she has the truth in her hands, she can finally make a difference. Olive has been part of the resistance since she was eight, dedicating her life to finding a way to end the reign of Queen Corvina and persecution of the gifted. So when she finally figures out the truth about who she is, she must test her limits and determine, once and for all, where her loyalties lie. Minutes before they took everything from her, Chimera was given the truth about who she is, and who she was meant to be. And now, she must decide if she is going to run and hide, or step up and fight back, before it's too late. I honestly have no idea what I'm doing, so this might take a while and it will most likely not be that great to start with. I'll try to find an updating schedule, but who knows what will happen. I know my grammar isn't that great, I'll be working on that a bit.

    Margaret Kade's career has taken off. She's out of the closet and living with her brother in their new favorite city. She has reconnected with an old friend interested in her wedding business. The further they get into arrangements, the less excited Maggie becomes. What is wrong with her? Could it be time for a big change? Old friendships are complicated, but shouldn't revisiting them with the experience and options of adulthood make a person happy, not devastated and confused? We'll find out whether Maggie can spin this whole thing into a successful engagement party and a successful friendship. This story will not get sexually graphic but will include same gender romance, descriptions of neurodiversity and mental illness, and mild 'adult' language.

    This is a place for me to show some of the parts of my story that I've written and would like to get feedback on. This is not a full story just yet. Everything will be published in order of it happening within the story, so parts will be moved around. ~~~~~~ Blackthorne, Sweetbrier is the story of Charlotte Barlowe, a young girl running against time as she uncovers the tainted history of her family. She discovers her dark freckle beneath her left eye is a common attribute in the deceased children in her bloodline, all of which died a gruesome death. In her fight to keep herself alive, she meets the creature designed to keep her dead. The final trail will commence on the Harvest Moon in the year she turns 18, the ending deciding whether she lives to see tomorrow's sunrise or if she becomes another child, hidden beneath the lies of the Barlowe family. ~~~~~~ TRIGGER / CONTENT WARNINGS: - severe mommy issues - mentions of poor mental health and evidence of past harmful behaviors - dead people (both undead and just regular dead) - minor blood / gore
