Mia's always been in love with ballet. From the day she gripped the bar and perfected her first flawless plié, she knew she'd go far. She knew she had to go far. Nevertheless, she'd always been a sort of rebel, inserting her own modern moves here and there... something that's not tolerated in classical dancing. But her previous ballet teachers' nasty comments didn't stop her from continuing.
However, the magic abruptly ends on the most important day in Mia's life-- the day of her audition to get into a prestigious classical dance program with famous retired prima ballerina Irina Vandeweghe herself. When Mia doesn't get in, she's crushed; but a surprising twist makes her run into Alexis Johnson, a contemporary dance teacher, and the woman who could change Mia's life. Alexis knows Mia has potential dancing other styles... but young ballet dancer's not so sure.
After a change of heart and a complicated friendship dilemma, Mia's life is suddenly turned upside down, and she finds herself loving her new dance group. Mia's now squashed between two choices: choosing over the people who've been helping her since the day she was born, or her own happiness and future.
Should Mia prioritise her mental health? Or keep her friendships secured?
Find out in Flutter Away, the new middle-grade novel about being a dancer, being a friend, and learning how to take care of yourself.

Being Mia (Completed)
It's been 6 months since Mia last went to school and although school life was never easy, it has gotten even more complicated. She is now the heiress to two highly successful businesses; one of her best friends has gotten herself a stalker (who by the way has quite an opinion on Mia) while another bestie has decided to fall in love with the enemy's best friend. And did I mention that the guy who has always glared at her in the hallways has decided to make his hate verbal? And why on earth does someone want to kill her? From stalkers to anonymous messages, with all the complications, threats, runaway relatives, doomed-from-the-start couples, bodyguards, hatred and innocent crushes in between, the problems are just far more than the solutions. And then there's Aryan Storm. The guy who hates Mia. But unknown to her, Aryan's feelings are far from unreasonable. There are mysteries to solve, people to save and too many friends who aren't friends at all. Will Mia survive all these complications or will the Ice Princess (as dubbed by the media) finally fall? Discover with Mia that you don't need vampires and werewolves to make your life complicated...Zakończone

A NeverEnding Story Fanfiction Series: The Dream Map-Gateway To Fantasia
What if a book could open a door to another world-but at the cost of everything you love? Mia, a librarian lost in the pages of her beloved books, stumbles upon The Dream Map-Gateway to Fantasia in a dusty shop, its ruby-lit cover pulsing with secrets. When she opens it, an alley dissolves into a portal, thrusting her into a labyrinth of realms where stories breathe and time bends. From enchanted forests to crystal spires, singing deserts to valleys where rivers flow backward, Mia's journey is a kaleidoscope of wonder and peril, guided by the mysterious map that writes itself. But every step comes with a price. Shadows wearing the face of her best friend Clara haunt Mia, born from the guilt of ignoring Clara's calls for the sake of stories. Joined by Clara, fellow seeker Lila, and reluctant ally Eli, Mia battles rival seekers, ancient creators, and her own doppelgänger, each wielding maps that threaten to unravel reality.
