A man orders four bounce houses for his own birthday and never jumps on any of them. The siblings play on them all day. He watches from windows he installed himself - the kitchen window, the front yard, the peephole in the front door where he catches the tail end of something happening on the street that he wasn't part of. A childhood crush hanging laundry in the foreground. A daredevil behind a fence running tricks for a camera nobody asked him to set up. A neighbor in a tree mansion who asks for hash twice and gets it once. In between: a condo upstairs, a family that is his in every way that counts, chocolate-covered frozen bananas in the back of the cupboard, a phone call to arrange the pickup of bounce houses nobody over twelve touched. And twice - once near the beginning and once at the end - a small truck going up a mountain with his mom in the passenger seat and Patsy Cline on the radio. He was singing. Not well. But he was singing. ~~~ JREAMS - Episode VI K.M. Æsquire

No prophecy. No relic. No chosen one. LaTao is just a short girl who studied and worked her butt off to be the best... and somehow that's worse. Back at the most prestigious magic school in the kingdom, all she wants is to graduate, pass the Mage Test, and keep her friendships intact. But when excellence looks like arrogance and success breeds jealousy, staying small may be the hardest spell of all. Red Apprentice is a character-driven YA fantasy about ambition, power earned, and the price of standing out. ✨ New chapters weekly

Mae has always believed love should feel like poetry-soft, certain, and written just for her. But life has taught her otherwise. Between chasing her dreams and holding herself together in a city that never slows down, love is the last thing she expects to find-until Adam. Adam is everything she didn't plan for. Steady where she is restless. Guarded where she is open. And somehow, in the quiet spaces between their conversations, he begins to feel like home. But timing is a fragile thing, and love... even more so. As past wounds resurface and choices demand more than just feelings, Mae and Adam must decide- is love enough when everything else is uncertain? Or will they become just another almost story?

Riley Jones has built her life on staying out of the spotlight. In a quiet Marietta gym, far from the noise that follows her last name, she's carved out an identity that belongs entirely to her-one measured in discipline, routine, and the steady rhythm of iron hitting the floor. Cody Rhodes lives in the opposite world. As one of the biggest names in WWE, his life is defined by bright lights, constant travel, and a legacy he can never quite outrun. Everywhere he goes, people see the name first-and the man second. When their paths cross, neither of them is looking for anything more than a moment of normalcy. But what starts as an easy, unspoken connection quickly becomes something harder to ignore. With Riley determined to protect the life she's built and Cody navigating the demands of a career that never slows down, they're forced to confront what it really means to live in the shadow of expectations. Set against the heat and heartbeat of North Georgia, Home Turf is a story about identity, pressure, and the rare kind of connection that doesn't ask you to be anything other than who you are.

Some people disappear slowly. They stop answering texts, stop showing up, stop showering, stop eating real meals. They lock themselves in their rooms and call it comfort and try not to think about the people they've already lost. Sunny is very good at disappearing. Alex isn't very good at letting him. Midnight Catalyst is about grief, self-harm, cigarettes, bad coffee, and what happens when someone refuses to stop seeing you, even when you've given them every reason to.

They told her she was a Relic. A weapon. That the most dangerous Elemental alive has been hunting her since before she was born. But Mahalia? She just wants to graduate high school without incident. Again. She's always lived between two worlds-the ordinary and the unreal. Defined by titles and she never asked for. Haunted by visions no one can give answers to. On the surface, she's just another face at La'Fant High. Underneath? She's the missing link between two ancient families - one thought erased, the other unaware she exists. When a school contest pushes her into the spotlight, and an anonymous blogger starts exposing things no one should know, Mahalia is forced to face the impossible: Adapt. Or disappear. COMING OF AGES is a genre-blending coming-of-age drama about identity, legacy, and what happens when you refuse to follow what fate has planned - or kneel before a false crown blocking her path. Volume 1 marks the beginning of a generational reckoning - and the girl no one saw coming? She aims to shock. Not please. PLEASE NOTE: Story is complete, but as this is my first book on Wattpad, I'll be uploading a few chapters a week until the final chapter. Thanks for joining me on this journey.

Montana Territory, 1860s. The land is wide, silent, and waiting to be claimed. Young surveyor Elias Hawke arrives in the frontier with a simple task - to map the land for settlement. But when he encounters a Native tribe living on the very ground he has been sent to measure, the lines on his map begin to feel like lines drawn across his own conscience. As tensions rise between soldiers, settlers, and the people who have lived on the land for generations, Elias must decide where he stands - with progress, with duty, or with what he knows is right. The Land Listens is a powerful historical novel about the American frontier, the cost of expansion, and the quiet voice of conscience that cannot be ignored.

So, recently, my second book "Paved Bumps on the Holy Roads" has been published on Amazon. It's about Bronwen Eld, this genderfluid descendent of an angel and the Devil, who has felt like a wolf in sheep's clothing their whole life and tries to make the most of life with their knowledge, abilities, and putting up with some folks that aren't that pure. I thought it would be a good idea to put a little bit of the story on here and maybe encourage you guys to check out the book. https://www.amazon.com/Paved-Bumps-Holy-Roads-Monique/dp/1537359959/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1477404952&sr=8-1&keywords=paved+bumps+on+the+holy+roads

A chilling horror anthology

She gave love where she only received silence. Sakshi spent her life trying to be enough-for her family who never noticed her, and later, for a husband who forgot how to love her. What began as a fairytale quickly turned into a lonely silence, whispered behind closed doors and masked with fake smiles. When Aryan, the man who once held her like the world, started treating her like a burden, Sakshi did everything to hold their marriage together. But love, no matter how deep, cannot survive alone. One dream gave her hope. One post destroyed it. This is not just a story about heartbreak. It's about the quiet strength of a woman who stayed soft, even when the world gave her every reason to harden. It's about letting go. Healing. And finally, choosing herself. 🌙 "When love became loneliness... she bloomed."

In the dusty dirt roads of a 1970s Missouri trailer park, a wide-eyed 4-year-old boy dreams of being a hero-just like Robin from the Batman TV show he watches every afternoon. No fancy costume. No gadgets. Just a plain white dish towel pinned around his neck as a cape, a wobbly hand-drawn "R" on a scrap of paper safety-pinned to his light blue t-shirt, and his trusty red Big Wheel as the ultimate crime-fighting ride. He races through the neighborhood, directing "traffic" with tiny outstretched arms, saving the day one pretend adventure at a time. But behind the innocent play are quiet moments of family life-loving but imperfect parents, sibling squabbles, and the simple truths kids learn about bravery, kindness, and what it really means to grow up. "How Heroes Are Made" is a warm, heartfelt short story about childhood imagination, the magic of make-believe, and how the smallest acts of heroism shape who we become. A nostalgic trip back to simpler times, perfect for anyone who ever tied a towel around their shoulders and felt unstoppable. Read this quick, feel-good tale of one little boy's big dreams.

A very short non-fiction story about how I lost my left pinky.

Lyra wanted a normal life. No wolves. No bond. No fate. Six months ago, Lyra Duskbane walked away from Ashmoor Academy, severing the rare bond that tied her to Rowan and Riven Moonsbane. She thought choosing freedom would save them all. Instead, it left her powerless, human: and haunted by a love she can't outrun. But when the Starpath opens, tearing the veil between realms, Lyra is dragged back into a war she doesn't understand. Shadows whisper her name. The Eye of Aether is watching. And a darkness older than the gods themselves is rising. To survive, Lyra must reclaim the magic she gave away-before it consumes her. But every step down the Starpath brings her closer to Rowan's fire, Riven's darkness, and Sylas's unshakable devotion. Their bond may be broken, but desire never was. This time, loving them could cost her everything. And if she fails, the Starpath will destroy her world.
