Only Shadows
What could possibly go wrong when exploring an abandoned mental hospital at midnight? Everything. High school student Izzy Sinclair thought tagging along on a ghost hunt would be a thrilling adventure. But when two of her friends mysteriously vanish during a live stream, the night takes a terrifying turn. With no one to trust and time running out, Izzy rallies her remaining friends to investigate the truth behind the disappearance. As they delve into the hospital's chilling history, they unearth secrets far darker than they ever imagined. Sometimes, the ghosts of the past refuse to stay buried. 𓄿𓄿𓄿 Trigger Warning and Genre: While this story does not fit cleanly in one genre as it has elements of drama, humor, romance, mystery, YA, and even sci-fi, it is rooted in paranormal horror. This means there will be some violence and gore. It's also rated mature for language, mentions of previous sexual abuse, and general teenage behavior. Thank you so much for reading! New chapters will be released every Friday!Complete

Hue - Archaic #2 (Sample of Published Book)
You know her name. You know her story. You know her secret. She isn't like any other girl, not anymore. Jared Walker complicated everything; he told her his secret, stole her heart and showed her a whole new world. She knew then that she'd never be the same again. Ava Delaney is no longer human - she doesn't know what she is. She should probably figure it out. But there is much more important stuff that she needs to learn first: how to keep her new secret, how to fight and most importantly... how to survive a war that's older than time. She's not like any other girl, not anymore. * Please note that this is only a five chapter sample of the published book.Complete
The Patchworks of being alive: a book of short stories
This is not one story, but many. A patchwork of voices and moments stitched together - some soft as a whisper, some sharp enough to leave a mark. Inside these pages, you'll find sadness that lingers like smoke, flashes of surreal wonder that bend reality at its edges, and quiet truths that feel almost too honest to say aloud. There are stories that wander into the strange, poems that breathe between the lines, and a handful of pieces that may stir old shadows. It is a collection for anyone who has ever felt both the weight and the wonder of being alive - the laughter that comes out sideways, the grief that hums in your bones, the beauty that arrives without warning. Weird, light, aching, honest - all of it belongs here.
