"This is my paradise. Mine.
You see that garden, that forest, that cliff, that ocean, that house, these clothes, that fireplace, they are all mine. I created them. I can create anything here. You know why? Because this is my paradise."
"What about that field of crimson flowers?"
"No. They're not mine at all. They pollute my perfect paradise."
"Well I think they're beautiful."

Catastrophically Carla (Lesbian Story)
Ages 14+ (lesbian concepts and some profanity) This is not your everyday love story, okay? It's not a chick flick either. The events and themes within my pages have meaning, depth, truth-and most of all, reality. You are about to be taken on an adventure about a girl who's life is not like everybody else's. I look like a normal teen girl, I mean, I have hair and two eyes and two hands and feet like everybody else, but I couldn't feel more different. I have two moms, yes. Let's just get that out there before you start reading and close my diary like everyone in my life has shut me out of theirs. All I want is a normal life with normal friends who don't judge me because of my home situation. I don't even remember the last time I went on a sleepover or called somebody my age. I don't mean to be a downer, because it does get better. Life gets better. Struggles are only temporary, I know that now. And by my last words reach your eyes, I've come a long way, and have grown to see potential in myself. I'm sharing this with you because I want to make a difference. I know now that I'm not the only one in the world that feels alone. I've been there, done that, and there's more loneliness to come, but for now, I feel more prepared for it. I know how it feels to sit by yourself at lunch every day and how it feels to watch others go to prom with dates and feel like shit because you don't think you'd even have any friends to go with. Please ready my diary. I am much older now, and much more wiser, and I can't wait for you to realize the potential in yourself, too.Complete
The Book of Abbadon
**THE BOOK OF ABBADON HAS BEEN MOVED TO AMAZON AND PUBLISHED BY KDP. THANK YOU TO THOSE OF YOU WHO READ THE NOVEL FOR FREE AND GAVE IT SUPPORT IN ITS EARLY STAGES.～ ♡♡♡ " In life, there will always be pain and sorrow and suffering, but it's the bad times that make us truly appreciate the good. You need both Light AND Darkness to fully understand the importance and meaning of each side, and that's evident all the way down to the fundamental elements of the Omniverse! " The Book of Abbadon is more than a typical cosmic fantasy, as it aims to capture any would-be reader and put them through a series of life-changing events that they otherwise would never get to experience in the real world. Rather than follow a cast of characters throughout their journey, this novel puts you at the center and is intended to make you think and feel as if this epic is following you instead. As you read this novel, you might possibly discover things about yourself that you otherwise wouldn't have; opening a new perspective on different philosophies and what they mean to you as a person. Ideological lines will begin to blur as you meet certain characters, searching for meaning and fighting for a universe that is not too dissimilar from our own. What you become after reading The Book of Abbadon is for you to decide, as this is your own story to face and undergo as the central character to the plot.Complete

Atlantis Academy: The First Element
Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?Complete

Just Me, Myself and You
**Complete** The best secrets are the most twisted. "The greatest beauty in life is it's mystery, the inability to know what course our life will life will take, and diligently work to transmute into our final form based upon a lifetime of constant discovery and enterprising effort", he said staring into complete darkness, watching the burning ball of gasses, twinkle and light up the dark sky shining like billions of tiny diamonds we've come to known as stars. Slowly he turned his head towards me, his pure hazel eyes staring into my brown ones, melting every atom of my existence. The natural glaze of the moonlight illuminates his features as I stared into the eyes of a flawless Greek God. His wise words taking me by surprise, and I began to fall even more inlove with him. If that was even humanely possible. Join the journey of Delilah Rose and Blake Cooper. Enjoy ❤ ⚠COPY RIGHTED ALL RIGHTS RESERVED➡ Queen_Nabz ⚠Complete
