    Psyche is a collection of poetic fragments, prayers and personifications written from the inner landscape of a mind learning how to survive. Here, abstract forces speak-Truth walks barefoot, Faith has no name, Mercy grows tired, and Death is not always the enemy. Myth, nature, and emotion intertwine as the psyche gives voice to what cannot be said plainly. This is not a diary. It is not doctrine. It is a quiet mythology of the inner world.

    There was a time when survival felt like identity. Before language, before understanding, before self-love ever entered the conversation-there was instinct. The quiet knowing of when to stay small, when to soften, when to harden, and when to disappear. The body learned long before the mind could explain. Instinct: A Journey Back to Self is a deeply personal, lyrical memoir told through the symbolic language of animal behavior. Each chapter follows a different instinctual response to harm, love, fear, and belonging. Obedience learned for approval, softness exposed to danger, protection born from pain, grief buried to survive, and the slow, brave return to self. This is not a book about healing in a straight line. It is a book about the cost of survival and what it takes to return home afterward. Through animals that obey, flee, protect, grieve, return, nurture, and finally transform, the reader is invited into an intimate journey of self-reckoning. The story does not ask the reader to be fixed. It asks them to be honest. To recognize the parts of themselves that adapted to stay alive. To see those parts not as failures, but as acts of love.

    During a hospital sleep study, eleven-year-old Naomi Carter speaks in perfect sentences while her EEG shows continuous delta activity-deep sleep, a stage in which speech does not occur. The anomaly draws two men into its orbit: Dr. Adrian Wells, a rational pediatric neurologist who doubts anything he cannot measure, and Father Miguel Salvatierra, a priest who trusts in faith where medicine demands proof. As Naomi's nocturnal speech evolves into something far more dangerous than words, neurology and theology converge, revealing that consciousness is not a closed system-and that some words summon what should remain dormant. Between the men grows a tension neither professional nor holy, and the mystery begins to threaten far more than their beliefs. Delta Legion is a slow-burn horror thriller about sleep, identity, forbidden intimacy, and the doors the human brain opens when we are no longer awake.

    Originally known as "A Friendship" Nobody is right, and nobody is wrong. Everything has to happen. Problems appear so we can face them. There's no one to blame, no one to admire, no one to consider as a hero. Everyone has their own mistakes, and they must face the consequences. Everybody, wants to rule the world. The Darkest Light is a crime fiction novel centered around a fictional American city called Greensburg, a city known for corrupted people, injustice incidents and so go on. There are many characters point of views in the story, there is no single protagonist or main character. But the readers may decide who the main character really is. My best suggestion is either Mary or Kevin, as they are the characters with the most appearance. "I combined many genres into one singular novel. And still, I think it's good. This is my favorite work of a novel. But unfortunately, this novel made me break down at sometimes. Thus, I plan to write crime novels like this no more." - Mg Anonymous - Author of this story Warning- This novel contains dark crime, psychology, murder, corruption low profanity and others. I do not recommend this to those who are younger than 13 or people who are sensitive. I do not encourage anyone to do the exact things in the novel. All characters, places and events are fictional, and do not resemble any real life events. Inspiration: Dexter, Emesis Blue and Detective Ace Brickman

    The kingdom never rejected anyone. It simply revealed how far each person was willing-and able-to go. Behind its warm gates stood firm laws, silent watchers, and doors that did not open easily. Not because they were guarded by fear, but because what lay within required care. This is an allegorical story about boundaries, choice, and quiet endurance. About entering spaces that feel safe, staying where responsibility begins, and understanding that not every ending is a loss. Some doors remain locked-not to keep people out, but to protect what must remain whole.
