Atop a bookshelf, in an otherwise normal classroom, sits a castle made of cardboard. And inside it, a small civilization that idolizes literature.  When books go astray from the royal library, the otherwise peaceful court is thrown into chaos. 




This is a mystery short story I wrote in the fall of 2016 for a language arts project. The pictures on the cover and at the beginning of the story were taken by me. I hope you enjoy it! As it is my first story, the quality may not be that great. Any constructive feedback is welcome!

Though, she has no memory of who she truly is -- only the name the King has told her. In the crowded, suffocating city, she struggles to think clearly, to remember something. But remembering is dangerous; it could make the King angry. And angering the King something she dares not risk. Yet, when Selene begins dreaming of a mysterious man with amber eyes, fragments of her memories begin to return. As her past slowly pieces itself together, she faces the question -- will learning the truth of who she is give her the strength to claim her freedom, or will it spell doom for herself and the kingdom she has come to call home?

Barely Human: A Short Story Collection by cabemidnights
4 parts Ongoing
Here lies a series of short stories written out of pure boredom or when ideas I conjure up don't fit nor expand into any bigger story. As I'll be too burdened with college and personal life, I won't be continuing Hollow Ocean for the time being as I would need to revise it. However, I took the time to make some short stories that I oftentimes use as submissions for my finals. Should the need arise, I'm not opposed to writing a second collection.
