There, is a pile of sheets, seeming so insignificant and delicate on the table two meters away. Yet, something pulls you towards it, and soon you see it right in front of your eyes. Words printed neatly on the first page atop the small pile, and something about it has your eyes drifting across each line. Subconsciously, you lift the single sheet and begin on the next. You delve deeper into the story, and too soon it ends. But there is the next one, the first words the beginning of a new story and a new adventure. You know its not worth your time, yet your body disagrees and soon you admit to the urge. The Short Passages have casted an unbreakable enchantment, and without knowing, you continue to walk onto the most thrilling rollercoaster ride.

The summer of my 5th grade year, my mum made me and my sisters type a page of something everyday. She didn't care what we typed, as long as we were writing and creating something. At first, I saw it as torture, so I tried so leave as many spaces as possible in my writing to fill up the pages faster. Eventually, I started to enjoy writing the stories, and now that I look back at them (as much as I hate to admit it) it actually wasn't that bad.
This book contains everything I wrote during that time, and I didn't change a single word as I transferred the stories from my computer. There aren't as many stories as you would think, because I didn't write for the entire summer, but there's quite a few. Some are short stories while others are longer, but I hope you enjoy all of them.
It's quite a mess, really. And I'm not joking when I say that.
