Palka Fyifhers knows she couldn't possibly make a difference in the world, let alone her own family. When her mother falls sick, she travels on her moody horse to the capital of district three, Chrilst, to gain money working for the king's stables. While she's there she meets unique people, creatures, and everything in between.
When she's barely settled in, word comes that a war is threatening to terrorize the six districts of Sari, and no one knows why. Several sides are fighting to have their way, and the friends she thought she had start turning on each other. Everyone seems to have a valid and understandable point, but it's impossible to stay neutral when everything around you seems to be resulting in violence over opinions that aren't worth the consequences.
Palka knows she's in a position that could help avoid war, but, as always, she doubts herself. Not only she, but others as well doubt her. You can't make a difference without trying; will Palka try to make a difference in her world?

You Are Mine
EK AU Sanem has had anything but an easy life. From her difficult upbringing to her dismal marriage. Her surroundings weigh her down and force her to think her fate is sealed. She is alone, not by choice, but by circumstance. Her only friend is the voice in her head. Life didn't turn out the way Can thought it would either. But he has learned to accept it and even prefers his solitude to the point where he is far more comfortable around horses than he is people. Their two paths cross and life is no longer the same. But with how fate has treated them, do they really want to keep their old lives? The road may be rocky, but they find strength and solace in each other. Set in Northern California during the mid 1930s. Tensions escalate as the rift between the upper and lower classes increases. A possible uprising looms on the horizon. *Disclaimer/Trigger Warning* Please read before starting chapter 1. This is an AU story featuring characters from the Turkish TV show, Erkenci Kuş. A show that is a romantic comedy. This story here is not a romantic comedy. For those finding this story from one of the others I've written, fair warning, this one is going to be darker than what I've published so far. I will not be explicit or go into a lot of detail, but this story does include themes like domestic violence and marital rape. These are serious topics that I do not take lightly. I will do my best to always be respectful and ask that all readers do so too in any comments. Chapters will also not have individual warnings marking it as mature. (Before your minds get too carried away, no. Can Divit is not the villain here. So you can relax on that front.)
CAN DIVIT CHRONICLES
It's been so, so long since I've even thought about writing fanfiction but I've recently been inspired by the amazing Erkensci Kus, the Turkish romcom. Some of my writing will remain canon, others will depart from the canon episodes and I'll add my own, mostly from Can's perspective. Please bear with me as I get acclimated to writing again and please comment, leave suggestions for how I can improve!Complete

How does Sanem cope with these two men? Will she fight to get her Can back or try to understand the Albatross a little better. She is sure of only one thing, whoever he is today she will always love him. Her Can or the new Can.

Unexpected - Can and Sanem AU
"Unexpected" follows the story of Can, a free-spirited man who spent most of his adult life on the road, far from the responsibilities and ghosts of his past. But when tragedy strikes-his beloved sister Leyla and her husband Emre are killed in a hit-and-run accident-he is forced to return to his family home in Istanbul to care for their five-year-old son, Bulut. Grief-stricken and unsure of his place in this new reality, Can finds an unexpected anchor in Sanem, Leyla's childhood best friend, who has just returned from studying abroad. As Bulut clings to Sanem, seeing in her a fragment of the life he's lost, Can and Sanem must navigate grief, memory, and the tender beginnings of love to give Bulut-and themselves-a sense of home again. A story of healing, found family, and quiet romance, "Unexpected" explores whether love can blossom in the shadows of heartbreak-and whether two wounded hearts can piece together a future for the sake of a child. Note: This story is based on the Turkish Show Dolunay, with a mix of Erkenci Kus. The characters are borrowed, and original.Complete
The Great Cleric: Volume 8
There's no time to lose. Luciel and the gang make for Grandol with all haste, on a heroic quest to save a damsel in distress...not. The hapless healer is in no rush to go sticking his neck out for others, but he's not one to break a promise to an all-powerful dragon. When they arrive, though, things don't exactly go as planned, and a detour takes Luciel on yet another rescue mission-this time at an auction. But a bid war is only marginally less lethal than a labyrinth, especially when it's being run by a shady character who seems to know more than he lets on. And that's the least of the poor S-rank's worries. With Brod back around, class is about to be back in session, and it's looking to be the hardest course in brutality Luciel's ever taken. Meanwhile, the healer wonders what it is that keeps making him the center of chaos. Is it the mere whimsy of fate? Or he himself? And what happens when it puts the people he cares about in danger?

DON'T JUDGE A PERSON (AN ERKENCI KUS LESSON)
A story about how so many people underestimated Sanem, because of her upbringing, even Can. Just because a person is shy, respectful, and not pushy, this should not be evaluated as not smart and looked down on! I wanted Can to show his smarts, and realize his attitude with all the women, the show threw in front of Sanem. I did not like Can's arrogance with the women. As you will be able to tell, I did not like any of them at all, especially Polen. A lot of the time, it was just degrading, how everyone treated the character Sanem. I wanted Sanem and Can to be in love, but equal. I also, felt like Huma, was just evil, but why? She was the mother of two adult men, why be so mean? So I made her a little different, she still thinks she is better, but not! I also, did not like the way Sanem's parent's went from friendly to not, then forgave Leyla and Emre overnight, but never ever understood Sanem and Can. I am not a writer, have no connection with the actors, production staff, or anyone else with Erkenci Kus. I am just a fan. Any mistakes, misspellings, long boring chapters or story are all on me. Thank you for your patience and for reading.Complete
