I've spent years trying to understand how my mother sees me. What I concluded isn't what I hoped.

After returning home from an boarding school in Colorado, a young girl is confronted with the unsettling realization that nothing feels the same. Friends have changed, family dynamics feel unfamiliar, and the place she once called home no longer fits the person she has become. Told through the present moment and reflections on her time away, Drifting traces the quiet ways independence, distance, and time reshape identity and relationships. As she looks back on the experiences that changed her while trying to reconnect with a life that moved on without her, the story explores belonging, growth, and the feeling of returning to somewhere familiar only to realize you are no longer the same. Drifting is a coming-of-age story about change, separation, and learning how to exist between who you were and who you are becoming

Sometimes love arrives quietly, in the spaces you least expect. Mara's life is predictable, measured, and carefully contained-until a chance encounter in a darkened bookstore changes everything. One conversation, one shared coffee, and a slow, unfolding connection teaches her that love isn't always grand or dramatic; sometimes it's the quiet moments, the shared silences, and the gentle persistence of someone choosing to stay. "Tuesdays in the Dark" is a tender, reflective story about unexpected love, small acts of courage, and the everyday choices that shape a lifetime. With warmth, humor, and bittersweet insight, it captures the way ordinary days can hold extraordinary beginnings.

Haunted by a mysterious past, Dockson rose among ranks, met friends with strange secrets, faced fearless foes, and lived a life of adventure. But, how long can he outrun his former life?

this is just a very short story that I did for my English final. I wanted a place to put it, any constructive criticism is welcome

Eli never meant for it to be a love story - not really. It's just what happens when growing up, faith, and heartbreak keep crossing paths. From noisy villa Sundays to quiet airport goodbyes, this story follows a boy learning how to love - and how to let go - without losing his faith in the process. Told across years, through friends, prayers, and silences, "If I Ever See Her Again" is a slice-of-life journey about timing, grace, and finding peace after almost. Based on a true story. Written from memory, not fantasy.

A brilliant, emotionally isolated engineer builds an AI designed to mirror his own mind, only to discover-after living an entire alternate life-that understanding reality means relinquishing the need to control it.
