The Book of Miranda | gxg | ✔︎ by SmokeAndOranges

Desdemona ''Des'' Winchester wants nothing to do with Melliford Academy. In fact, she's pretty sure her parents shipped her off to boarding school just to get her out of their hair. It's a move they'll come to regret if she has any say in the matter. Nothing humiliates posh folk like having a daughter sent home from the country's most esteemed educational institution. Just flunking class isn't dramatic enough, though. Des plans to get booted in the most spectacular manner possible, just to make sure her parents' social circle will never let them live it down. Her scheming, unfortunately, encounters three roadblocks within the first week of class. The first: Exie Quinnell, teacher's pet, whip-smart, and unreasonably attractive. Neither girl intended to end up on a project together, but their teacher deemed Des in need of a little... remediation. The second: There are things about Melliford Academy that none of the teachers will talk about, even when pressed. Things that should be easy answers. The third: The first student found dead with a folded paper dove perched on their chest. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated. I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know!

MELANCHOLY | Melancholy drips from my fingertips. SOON TO BE A PUBLISHED PAPERBACK. COMING 2025! This melancholy drips from my fingertips so slowly, you begin to forget I even exist. All of me, the hard parts of flesh you could never seem to love, drips down the drain. I am waiting for the day for your fingers to unscrew the pipes, dig through debris and mess, scrape your heart against the rust, just to find me, so we can go through it all over again. Here, in the pages I find myself, in the ink that writes against my flesh, I will whisper the sadness, the heartache, and the decaying for all of the unspoken. Perhaps under this layer of melancholy, the girl I once knew still exists.    First poetry collection in the series. Original poems based off real life experiences. #12 in poetry.

Flash forward a year later, Lexi packed her bags and moved with her father to Melbourne in the wake of their parents' umpteenth separation. Yet after an unfortunate turn of events, Lexi finds herself moving back in with her mum and estranged sister in their final year of high school. Upon unpacking her things into her old room, she comes across the old kiss list and decides to challenge Callie to complete the list with her before they graduate, in the hopes they reconnect through it. However, Callie and Lexi both have their own obstacles that could see them kissing none of the boys on that list. Firstly, Lexi is a closeted gay to her sister and mother, unable to out herself to Callie in fear that she won't do the list with her. And Callie... well, she only has one leg. Callie believes girls with one leg are destined to never get a boyfriend when surrounded by girls who have two.

Callie and Lexi's Kiss List is a spin-off from Positive 1 and 2, following the story of Lily's and Cory's children. [Reading Positive 1 and 2 is not necessary to enjoy this story.]
