Autumn - In Love With My Boss (An Office Romance)| Completed
My life should be great. I have an amazing job with one of the biggest event management companies around, and I have a wonderful boyfriend. Oh wait, did I say "wonderful"? I meant "cheating". And my job used to be amazing until I got a new boss. Now, it's only awkward. Why? Well, I fancy him a little, nothing serious, though. Okay, that is a lie, too. It is a full-blown crush. To him, however, I'm invisible. He doesn't even remember my name, even though I'm his personal assistant. Could it get any worse? Yes. Thanks to the bottle of wine I decide to down out of pure frustration on one of those many lonely nights in my apartment, while my boyfriend is out cheating on me. Please, don't blame me. Wouldn't you do the same? I'm sure you would. Okay, but I guess you wouldn't make that incredibly stupid mistake that I'm about to make. Note: Mature content. Sex, mild violence, explicit language.Complete

Nod my Head - A Writing Guide for Wattpad Writers
Do you find yourself writing he nodded, she shook her head, he shrugged, over and over again? It gets tedious, and doesn't help at all when it comes to pin pointing your character's actual emotions. So I've made a book using notes I've been collecting over a few years to help you chose an alternative way to show that your character is angry, or sad, etc, plus many other writing tips and resources. Doesn't, he blinked at his watch, read better than, he looked at his watch ? Doesn't, he slugged across the wet cement, read better than, he walked down the street slowly. Avoid the white room in your story and replace telling with showing to give your readers a much better experience. **** When Alice storms across the room instead of walks, we know she's angry. We're expecting suspense. We're waiting for the next action. Maybe she'l punch a wall? Shout at her friend? Much better than, Alice walked across the room angrily, which gives your reader nothing to imagine.Complete
SHIDDAT -E- ISHQ: TALE OF FORBIDDEN LOVE
I was only nine when my life changed forever. I was sold like an object; all of my cries were ignored as if they meant nothing. I meant nothing. That night, I learned that in this world, I had no value -- not as a child and not as human as well. So, I learned to survive on my own. Later years were even cruel. I was sold and tossed from one hand to another. I was taught to obey, to smile when I wanted to cry, to bury my pain deep inside. Love? Happiness? Those were words that didn't exist in my world. All I knew was how to survive. And when I lost all of my hopes of survival as well, he came. He didn't just look at me, he saw me. He made me feel something I never felt before. I saw a spark of hope in him, but hope is dangerous. I am dangerous and not something meant for love. I want him to stay away from me because I don't want him to burn with me in the same fire. I need him to stop and save himself from this forbidden love. I can never be his and person like him are not meant to be mine. I am Sandhya and this is my story of Love and Freedom from those who call themselves my master.
