There is another dimension beyond that which is known to fictional characters.
A collection of short stories, poems, snippets, vignettes, and everything else that crosses my mind and has no place in my current publications, or is waiting in the wings to find its forever home. Here is either where ideas are born, or where they go to die.
We will be cruising at an altitude of morally dubious. The time is lost. The weather is sarcastic with a high chance of misdirection. Please, sit back, fasten your seatbelts, and enjoy the ride. Just know, there will be turbulence, and there is a shortage of chairs.

STAB
I love the smell of my mind knocking on the door of some labyrinth and getting swallowed by a banana peel... Do you like how guilt makes you feel? If no, then take a peek inside. Do you like getting traumatized? If no, then take a peek inside. Do you like getting to see the darker aspects of a human's psyche? If no, then take a peek inside. I might be lying though, why do you trust me? I don't trust you. Neither should you... Because I'm your inner voices. *****WARNING***** -suicidal ideation, self-harm, violent urges, -mental health issues, fragmented thoughts, obsession, -nihilism, depression, hate. *****(If you have trauma, I suggest you don't read this, it might take a toll on your health. This is my coping mechanism for the random emotional bursts I get)***** Read only if you're interested in an in-depth look inside a human's psyche and philosophy.
Plucky Thoughtfullness
In the world we live in, thoughts get lost. Not because they want to disappear, but because we're too afraid to think them. Some are naughty, some forbidden, some simply unwanted. We don't want to think them. We can't. We don't have the time to. We're not brave enough. So we push them away, shift them to places where they're harder to find-far beyond what is allowed, desired, or considered good. But sometimes the mind takes a journey to visit them again. It vanishes for a while. But every traveler returns-often carrying even more baggage than they initially took with them. Dive into the hidden corners of the mind, where forbidden thoughts roam, fears linger, and unexpected freedom awaits. And dare to feel your thoughts with me. I promise to hold your hand.
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
Creator's Journal
Creator's Journal opens a window into the everyday rhythm of a writer's life - the quiet mornings, restless midnights, messy drafts, and those fleeting sparks that can set entire worlds ablaze on paper. This series isn't just about writing, but about living - the small joys, the unexpected challenges, and the way stories weave themselves into ordinary days. Inside, you'll find reflections, behind-the-scenes moments, and unfiltered confessions from a creative mind that's always learning, failing, laughing... and starting again. Ever wondered what goes on in a writer's mind between coffee sips and midnight edits? Here, I pull back the curtain on the moments that shape a creative life. You'll find fleeting sparks of inspiration, unexpected challenges, and the little things that remind us why we create in the first place. Whether you're a fellow writer, an artist in another form, or simply someone who loves peeking into a creative mind at work, welcome. ☕ Pour yourself a cup, settle in, and let's share this journey-one page at a time. 📖 Comment your thoughts and tell me: When do your best ideas find you-morning or midnight?
