Only a small tear is caressing my face when I am thinking about who I used to be and how happy I was at my home...My parents abandoned me and ran away. My current parents are kind of kings on this island. Do you know that joke: "I am still waiting for the day when my parents will say that we are millionaires, this was just to teach you to be humble"? It happened to me. The bad thing is that they've already arranged my marriage along with the parents of a stupid boy named Eduard, who is also very rich. Well, he is lucky, because I'm such a beautiful person... But...Ben's brown hair, his perfect eyes which were able to thrill my heart and his wonderful smile...my own smile when I was thinking about him... Eduard is like a psychopath, but he is beautiful and nice with me. Stupid Cupid! The next time you should throw the arrow with your eyes open. I have to love Eduard! Will my dreams come true or my life will get more complicated? I hope you'll enjoy the story!

"You are not sick. You are in love!" "I don't want it! Have you ever been like this?" (A boy becomes famous but the girl he loves, coming from a poor family, doesn't even know what "being in love" means. All of his plans are suddenly destroyed and he is in danger of being killed because of his best friend.) "You should tell that you love him! I know what means not to tell that you love someone...she loves another boy now. I didn't know if I had to fight for her. I decided that it's enough for me to see her happy. Someone said that life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath away." "Oh! She must be the most stupid girl on earth!" "No, she is not! But she is quite silly..." (You are that girl, are you crazy?)" ....... "The first time we met in this place. I remember what she said(so romantic): "Do you know where is the bathroom?" 3rd place in the ShineBrightAwards 2017 I hope you'll enjoy this story!

Zoey knew there were stories about the catwalk. Everyone had stories about it. Things like that - dark, old, abandoned things like that - collected stories. They collected ghosts like a child collects baseball cards. Everyone you talked to could tell you a different ghost story about the old train bridge. But the only stories Zoey knew to be true were the girls. The jumpers. But what other stories about the catwalk were true? What really happens when you walk out on the bridge at night? Maybe it's something Zoey would be better off not finding out. -- Awards -- 🥇1st place in short stories, The Monthly Elimination Awards (July, 2017) 🥈 2nd place in short stories, Royalty Awards (August, 2017) 🏅 Winner in horror, The Flowers Awards (2017) 🥇 1st place in short story, The Freedom Awards (2017) 🥇 1st place in short story, The Tick Tock Awards 2017

Honorable Mention in the 2017 Dream Book Awards This is a collection of various short works I've written over the years on a variety of topics. Some of them have been in response to prompts that I can no longer remember, others are solely the products of my warped imagination. From the silly to the sublime, in this anthology I tackle the subjects of astronauts, android policemen, sarcastic sons, the 2016 election and more. Join me on a brief, bizzare, thought-provoking and potentially life changing (okay maybe not that last one) journey.

For adventure is where you find it, Bora Bora or your own backyard.

Following a journal left behind by his grandfather, Mitch Cassidy heads into the Venezuelan jungle in search of a legendary deposit of emeralds. What he finds instead sends him and Amanda Verdugo, whose father disappeared over the same jungle, on a search and rescue mission. Braving the country's dangers, he ultimately finds something more than the Jimmy Buffet life he's been living, and learns there is value in this land beyond mere riches.

Through the language of flowers here are poems of love and loss, friendship and trust, innocence and hurt. we all have gardens within us that tell more stories than our mouths can, where each person is a flower forever blooming. -h/l (🌷) T h a n k Y o u f o r r e a d i n g !

"Are you crazy?!" He asked me for the zillionth time. "Yes!" I replied, hopping over another trap. "How did I end up having you as a partner?" He muttered under his breath. I giggled, "You better hurry up, rookie, 'cause I can sense hounds coming our way." "Hounds?" Before I could answer, an alarm going off stopped me. I giggled, "Time to die!" ▪▪▪ Dayana (Nope, it's not Diana, it's Dayana),more known as Ana, is your typical crazy bitch. Well, not crazy as in thinking aliens are real. More like the 'oh-there's-a-killer-I-should-go-play-with-him' crazy. Maybe that's why she's in a gang... more specifically the 'ace' of the gang. Xander is that 'cute-boy-next-door' kind of guy. He's super sweet. Most girls swoon for him, others already think their 'together' just because he's sweet to them. Most boys wanna be his friends to be with girls, while others wanna be his friend 'cause of his friendliness. Although our dear Xander here is sweet, he can't help but get in trouble himself. So when you see a girl killing someone with a candy cane (I am so SORRY for all those candy lovers out there), he is forced to join a gang which his father used to be a part of in his youth. Buuuuut, do you guys know who candy cane girl is? You already know so I won't have to tell you. {Highest Rankings- #40 in Humor, #6 in 'weird', #2 in friend-zone}

Haris follows closely behind until we reach the main entrance of the building. We stand behind the glass doors and stare in shock at the new world that we are now forced to call our own. The trees, which had once been green with life, are now dull, drained of color as if an illness has taken over. The grass is now dry and yellow, like the winter season had come early this year. In the distance, I could hear car alarms going off and people honking at each other. Further down the hill, cars collide together to form a massive build-up of at least 20 vehicles with a raging fire caused by the spilt gasoline. I look at Haris with tears threatening to spill from my eyes, "How are we gonna get home?" "I don't know," he truthfully answers while gripping my hand. I knew a war was eventually going to happen, but I never pictured it coming so soon. --- Cover by @divinare HIGHEST RANKING: #60

WINNER OF THE ROYALIST PEOPLES CHOICE AWARD IN FANTASY! HIGHEST RANK SO FAR #212 IN FANTASY! "I've been told that every young girl dreams of being a princess.
