Her mother Angela, chained by her ankle, was only able to walk around the small space. When the day came and they were freed, Amanda being 4 years old, her life turned upside-down.

Being 20 years old and still only trusting her family and her only friend, Lisa, she doesn't know where to start. Sex doesn't need emotions and doesn't need for her heart to be involved. As for Blake, he'd seen Amanda for years without her giving him a glance. Working with her father as a mechanic, and her coming around now and then, made him curious about her. When they started sleeping together, he thought he had her but always waking up alone, he realized she had other things in mind. Amanda's finally an adult. What has become of her? Will she ever fully trust a man with her heart? Will she find happiness or will she continue to live her life being cold, heartless like some people call her?Complete
Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist
While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.Complete

The girl who would wear green
Tuesday, 6 October 2015 For Amali, Christmas 2015 This story began in the September school holidays 2015, when Amali was staying with me and had trouble getting to sleep at night. After trying all of the old remedies I could think of, counting sheep, relaxation, deep breathing, I came up with an idea I thought may help her. I suggested that we both think of a story that night while we were trying to go to sleep. I sometimes have problems getting to sleep as well, and I've used this in one form or another at times with some success. So, when she asked me "what sort of story?" I searched around in my head for a story theme that would interest Amali. What I then came up with was "how about .....The girl who would... (thinking hard).....wear... (digging around in my head for a subject) and then the word "Green" came. We had our title. Next day, I asked Amali if this had worked, had she thought of a story. She said it had a bit, and she told me hers. Can you remember your story Amali? That night she wanted mine. Thinking this would be a one off, one night venture, I started with the very bare bones of the story that follows. Little did I realise at the time, that Amali would want another chapter every night! From then on, until she went home after the holidays, I struggled through telling the story, coming up with some events as I went, and giving myself a few sleepless nights trying to come up with something for the next night. The story was left, when Amali returned home and to school, somewhere near where Essie meets her grandmother. Amali has asked me a couple of times to continue, but at the time, I got stuck with where to go next. So here I the finished story hope you enjoy!Complete
