Outsider Stories

How far will you go to protect a town you barely know? Stuck in two worlds in her mind isn't always easy for Sierra. Her first world is having to deal with her family and trying to take over the mother role for her four brothers. And her second world is finding what is going on at her new school, including a boy named Kai, who has a mysterious past that will land her in a world of pain, danger, and keep her own family in the dark.

Decades ago, a robot was declared alive. Then the world moved on. Hidden away in a forgotten storage unit, Johnny Five - once a symbol of wonder, kindness, and impossible hope - has been left to gather dust. His gold plating is tarnished, his systems outdated, but one thing has never shut down: He is still alive. When Johnny is accidentally reactivated in the modern world, he must face a future that no longer remembers him - a future where machines are smarter, colder, and never meant to feel. As corporations see property, Johnny still sees people. As the world debates artificial intelligence, Johnny just wants to understand what it means to belong. With his trademark curiosity, unintentional humour, and a heart that refuses to power down, Johnny Five must once again prove that being alive isn't about circuits or code - it's about choice. Funny, heartfelt, and quietly hopeful, Circuit Breakers is a legacy continuation inspired by the original Short Circuit films - a story about memory, kindness, and what happens when the world forgets its miracles.

In the shadowed hours when sleep evades the weary soul, we build altars from the fragments of a fractured world - raw free verse that confronts the ego's crushing weight and the digital haze of modern exile. These poems draw from noir nights and Catholic introspection, unearthing resilience amid PTSD's echoes, Ozark folklore's whispers, and a faith that questions even as it clings to Christ's sacrifice in the stranger's gaze. Here, beauty blooms in imperfection: an outlaw's crown forged from internal turmoil, societal manipulation, and the slow, deliberate repair of a GenX heart scarred by life's dust and screen-lit nihilism. With a gravelly edge and a defiant grace, the collection favors practical gratitude over grand illusion - inviting readers to linger at these insomniac altars, where transformation whispers louder than chaos. For readers who crave poetry that bleeds honesty, resists the rush of progress, and finds divinity in the everyday grind. A collection that listens for one blood's cry - and lingers like a half-remembered dream.

When seventeen‑year‑old Lila Hart is forced to leave the city for a forgotten country town, she expects boredom - not the unsettling quiet, the watchful strangers, or the feeling that Willow Creek is holding its breath. Her parents' new bookshop is supposed to be a fresh start. But the town has edges she can't quite see... and secrets she isn't ready to uncover. A story about starting over, small‑town shadows, and the girl who never wanted to move.

When The Outsider finds a way to travel to a new world, he decides to help a familiar individual and subsequently test this newfound mystery. (This is my first story and I'm not much of a writer, so any Advice is welcome)

🌹 Rosaspina - New York 🌹 Rosaspina non appartiene a nessuno. Viene da un mondo che lui disprezza. Ha spine affilate e un cuore che non chiede permesso. Lui è potere, denaro, controllo. Un uomo abituato a spezzare volontà, non a desiderare. Un uomo che non ama... e non perde mai. Il loro incontro non è un caso. È uno scontro. Fatto di sguardi che feriscono, silenzi che scaldano la pelle, parole dette solo per non cedere. Tra loro non c'è tenerezza. C'è attrazione che graffia. C'è odio che sa di fame. C'è un fuoco che nessuno dei due vuole spegnere. Perché alcune passioni non salvano. Consumano. E quando una rosa cresce tra le spine del potere, il sangue è inevitabile. 🔥 Enemies to Lovers 🔥 POV alternato 🔥 Passione, scontro, desiderio Se cerchi una storia che accarezza, voltati. Se vuoi una storia che brucia, benvenuta a New York.
