“I like to think of clouds like people, cuz, if you think about it, we aren't very different from them. Clouds enter this world as a pattern, image, or whatever, and we admire them. They look like monkeys or objects or something beautiful. After a while, they change. Either to look like something else, or to look like a blob. Then, after a while, the cloud shrinks and disappear. Out of this world. Forever.”
Fourteen-year-old photographer Daniel Cloud has always seen cloudier side of things—his parents die, he has to move halfway across the country, and that’s not the worst part: he’s gay.
But, when one little push makes him fall in Christina Summers’ lap, he’s going to learn that sometimes the world gets sunnier.

Pictures Worth a Thousand Words
The path of life is a hard one and when you need to make a choice that determines your future, it just gets that much harder. Do you start all over in a new town? Do you stay and do something you don't know if you actually want to do? As long as you are lucky enough to have someone there beside you, you know no matter what you choose they will support you. But sometimes life changes and the people you thought would be there for you are gone. Leaving us alone to make the tough choices of life. It is then that we must choose, left or right? Charlotte is completing year 12. Teachers are on her back about the career path she wants to go down at the end of the year. Her family want her to stay but want her to also do what she wants, even if it means leaving. With the last few months and the stress of finding what she wants to do with her life, her and her group of friends decide to do something fun. Something they can do over the weekends before they graduate and all go their separate ways. But what is fun at the start, might be the reason it all ends. I guess they do say pictures are worth a thousand words.Complete
The Sun And The Stars •completed•
Audrey Kepler wants to breathe, to run, to live. It should be a given, after all, a gift everyone receives at birth. The day she gets on the bus is the day she finally admits to herself that being alive and living are two separate things. And Audrey wants to live. When she meets Eli Davis, a mysterious, quiet, and timid boy, she assumes that they are opposites. But, they are more similar than she could have ever imagined. Eli wants to live, he thinks. He at least wants to taste what it's like before he decides. She was the sun; warm, bright, radiant, and full of the purest light. He was the stars; distant and scarce, yet fascinating and effervescent if you took the time to look closely enough. They seem so different at first glance, the sun and the stars, but they are just alike.Complete
Beautiful Things
Youth. Beauty. All of them are fleeting. Summer was their time and the sea invited them. "A moment is beautiful not because it doesn't happen again but because you're living to see it," Drew said, smiling at him, "You're a beautiful moment, every minute and every second."Complete

Second Chance
So I decided to try something different. I write a story but you as a reader decide what is happening next. Write a suggestion in the comments and I'll continue the story. I'm gonna try and get as many as I can but I can't promise all of your suggestions will make it. I'll have to be able to write it as well or maybe I already wrote the next part when you leave your suggestion. No hard feelings I hope. This is supposed to be fun. I will of course give you credit if I use your idea. Harry and Louis were a couple during One Direction but broke it off on bad terms. They haven't seen each other in years when they suddenly run into each other at a café... Let's start! Purely fictional. No idea if it will contain smut. Probably if I know my readers. 😘Complete
Sharing Louis Tomlinson (Larry AU) COMPLETED
Harry is gay. Louis is straight and has a girlfriend. Well. At least that's what Harry thought, until Liam blabs his mouth about Harry's sex life and mentions that Louis is, in fact, bi. And after a strange turn of events, Harry finds himself intimately attached to Louis during a one night stand he hadn't anticipated. After that, everything changes. *cough* smut *cough* ----- Chapters will probably go private after publishing (which is the norm for my books) so you will probably need to follow. (Also, I do this thing where I just throw all my chapters out at once. I've just had my first child, so I've been writing this whenever I can, and I'd rather publish it all at once rather than leave people waiting for chapters that could've taken months to be written.)Complete

Freedom
Harry Styles had it all. He was a record-selling artist who played on all the big arenas around the world. His shows were always sold out and he had the best fanbase. The only thing he didn't have was the one thing he wanted the most: freedom. He had been discovered at age 16 and he had been too naive. He and his mom had signed a ten-year-long contract and they didn't understand then that they signed away his freedom. His management controlled almost everything. They refused to let him come out as gay. Instead, they made him look like a womanizer, forcing him to go on date after date with beautiful high profile women. Harry was so tired of it. He somehow managed to convince his manager to give him three months off. He immediately packed his clothes and headed to his farmhouse in the north of England for some alone time. To his surprise the old couple that was his only neighbors had their grandson helping them out. A gorgeous blue-eyed man named Louis... Purely fictional. Smutwarning!Complete
