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.

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.
She Came From The Stars
In the world we live in today, speaking seems to be the only way one knows how to communicate; as if it is the only way to communicate- or is it? There are many unique children, scattered around the world, who are labelled as, "special needs", or "autistic", or ADHD. And these labels usually come with a negative stigma attached to them. But, what if- what if these children were just... different? What if these children are here, to show us a different, and more unique way of living. What if they are not in need, of "special attention"? What if they are just: special. This fictional (or is it?) short story , is geared to change your perception about these children, and your view point on communication, and the way we as human beings- speak.Concluída
Things I Wish I Could Say To My Mother
What follows here is an anthology of poetry spanning a major transitional period of my life, beginning with the first one I wrote. From casual observations, to heartfelt love poems, to the depths of my journey with depression, my internal struggles with religion, and settling into my exploration of surrealism and aesthetic, this is what I have to offer of my soul. // Oh to be an atom, beholden to it all, I hope you find something in my writing, and godspeed in your journey through the stars. // Cheers and a thousand blessings, Michayla [trigger warning: brief references to suicide/self harm in "Musings Of A Caged Bird"]Concluída

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?Concluída
the depth of short stories and microfiction
I am pleased to present my short stories and micro-fiction collection, a compilation of carefully crafted narratives that aim to captivate readers with their depth and intricacy. Each story is meticulously written, with a focus on character development and thought-provoking themes. The collection covers a wide range of genres, from suspenseful thrillers to heartwrenching dramas, ensuring that there is something for every reader's taste. Despite the considerable effort put into this collection, I must express my disappointment with the lack of recognition it has received thus far. The stories within this collection are deserving of a wider audience, as they offer a unique and engaging reading experience. I invite readers to immerse themselves in the world of my short stories, micro-firction and discover the hidden gems within.Concluída
Galactic Taboo
In an eerily inverted world, humanity reels under the shadow of sinister extraterrestrial forces. The new reality is stark and bewildering, marked by a chasm between what is and what is portrayed. Powerless governments resort to deception, propagating the illusion of normalcy while death and mysterious ailments ravage the populace. In this regime, even acknowledging the existence of extraterrestrials is heresy, a paranoid fantasy dismissed and suppressed. Embark on an immersive journey into this dystopian realm, seen through the eyes of a brave few, the resolute resistance. These individuals defy the imposed silence, voicing the forbidden, risking all to shatter the façade of lies. Facing internment and stigma, they stand against not only the alien menace but also an oppressive regime, determined to uphold its illusory peace at any cost. This is a tale of rebellion, intrigue, and the relentless pursuit of truth. Witness humanity's resilience as it confronts the greatest challenge in its history. The question lingers: Can it overcome its own denial? The race against time is on. This gripping novel promises to hold you captive until its final page. In a world where truth is the ultimate transgression, brace yourself for a literary odyssey that will linger long after the journey concludes.Concluída
Oops, I Have a Collection of Nonsense
My brain refuses to settle on just one mood. So welcome to my collection of nonsense. Some stories will make you laugh, some might make you cry, and some might make you question reality (and your taste in reading). This collection includes both fiction and non-fiction (short stories, poetry, reflections, etc.) I don't even know what I'm writing half the time, but that's the fun. It's chaotic. It's random. It's nonsense. And maybe you'll enjoy it.Concluída
