At 27, Archy Larson is stuck in a life of routine-working a dead-end job, living paycheck to paycheck, and feeling like time is slipping away. His days are monotonous, with no family or close friends to turn to, leaving him isolated and disillusioned. The only place he finds any relief is the boxing gym, where he trains to escape the weight of his unremarkable existence.
But when fate throws him into the ring with a top contender, Archy's life takes a turn that no one could have predicted. One defining moment changes everything, and suddenly, the world begins to take notice of him. What starts as a long-shot dream spirals into something much bigger, leading him down a path filled with opportunity, challenge, and danger.
Archy's rise to greatness isn't just about boxing-it's about discovering what it truly means to fight for something more than yourself.

Chasing shadows
I wrote this book to show the different struggles of being a teenager today school, sports, friendships, crushes, and the constant pressure to fit in. But beneath all that, I wanted to dig into something deeper: how easily a good person can be corrupted by their own mind, and how the fight against yourself can be the hardest battle of all. For Henry, Year 7 should have been simple. But when he begins seeing a shadowy figure that no one else can, his life twists into a maze of fear, blackouts, and broken memories. The voice in his head pushes him closer to chaos, tempting him with promises of power while feeding on his darkest doubts. As his friendships fracture and his sense of self unravels, Henry discovers just how fragile the line is between light and darkness, between who you are and what you could become. Chasing Shadows is more than just a story about surviving school it's a raw, emotional exploration of growing up, mental health, and the invisible battles young people fight every day. It's about friendship, fear, obsession, and the terrifying reality of what can happen when the mind turns against itself.Complete

Knockout (Katsuki Bakugo x reader)
You didn't come to his fight club for fame or glory- You came to bleed. To earn fast cash. To survive. Bakugo doesn't ask why. Not at first.

You don't tell him the truth-that you're doing this to pay off someone dangerous. Someone you once loved. But Bakugo notices everything. The pain you hide. The way your hands shake when no one's looking. And the way your eyes never stay on him long enough to see that he cares. He tells you to stop fighting before it breaks you. You don't listen. You never meant to fall for him. You never meant to let him in. But when Bakugo finds out the truth-about Shindo, about the fear you've buried behind every bruise-he does the one thing you never expected. He steps into the ring for you. Because love isn't always soft. Sometimes, it hits hard. (I don't own the story. All rights go to the original creator. I just loved it so much, I wanted to share.)Complete
