My Shattered Soul by MyGhostWritersADoll

Alex is a 17-year-old girl recovering from a recent near-death experience. She's been forced into a strange new world where she discovers that the age-old folktales and myths of magical creatures are actually true, though not quite as accurate as she would have thought. These creatures live among us, and as a newly- changed vampire, she is now one of them. Alex has always struggled with depression, neglect, and isolation that have defined her identity, and now make it difficult for her to ever feel "normal." She makes friends with other magical beings that give her the strength to face her inner demons and provide her with a sense of belonging and the willpower she may need to face off against a group of political extremists from shifting the balance of humanity. Should she fail, humanity's existence will be in jeopardy and she could be lost forever.

SOLACE (condensed version) by MelanieVanZandt

This is not a happy, feel-good story. This is a story of heartbreak, of a person being utterly destroyed. However, it is also a story of true friendship and loyalty, of finding oneself, of unwavering love. It is a story of keeping promises, no matter how much it kills you to keep them. (Not my cover photo) Condensed and more succinct version of previous story Bit of an 'origin story' to Hiraeth (WIP) which shows how much grief can interfere with living your life. TW: mental illness, death, abuse, suicide, drug abuse, violence, assault, sexual assault This novel is told from the perspective of Alex - as she grows up with her best friend, Andy. It follows 15 years of friendship, in the format of monthly journal entries. Andy and Alex's teen angst evolves into harsh adult realities, but they always have each other. It shines a light on a lot of prevalent issues in society: addiction, stalking, assault, abuse, mental illness, and the ever-present grief of losing loved ones. Andy and Alex never get the timing right in their love for one another, and often drift apart as a result - but they can always find each other again.

BEGAN: MARCH 2 2018 FINISHED: APRIL 6 2018 Featured on Wattpad's Contemporary Rising Page This is a first draft manuscript that I realised is no longer a piece I connect with. However, a lot of hours went into it and I feel it deserves a bit more than being hidden in my documents folder so here it is in all it's messy glory. I'm also sharing for my beta readers who have been patiently awaiting an update and were desperate to read the next chapter despite it not being anywhere near submission worthy. So, thank you guys for the support on this piece but for now, it's time to work on a different story... and a new genre! Stay tuned!

If You Love Me by slybatspidow

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

Waiting for Us by AussieCarmen

Leah and Alex have been best friends forever, which is super convenient-except they're both completely oblivious to the fact that they're in love with each other. Clearly, they should be together, but hey, why make things easy? Instead, they spend years dancing around their feelings like it's a complicated game of "who can mess up their life more." And honestly, if they just talked to each other once or twice, this whole mess would've been over in...* drum roll * ...* drum roll intensifies * ...a chapter ! But nope, they'd rather be dramatic, make bad decisions, and send a million texts that never get answered. Will they finally stop being idiots and admit their feelings? Maybe. But don't hold your breath! These two somehow always miss their shot, even though it's written in neon lights . From accidental pregnancies to missing flights, life seems to go out of its way to throw obstacles in their path. They text, they don't text, they live in different countries, they don't live in different countries, and they make every bad decision possible-except the one that actually fixes everything. Will they figure it out, or will they keep being ridiculously stubborn for the next decade? A hilariously ( I hope) messy love story about the "right person, wrong time," or maybe just the "wrong people, right awful timing." °•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°••°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•
