They say belief is suicide. They're not wrong. Where I come from, faith gets you a bullet in the head, a knock at the door that never ends well, or a name etched on a list you'll never live to see. Still, I believe. So does Basil, my only constant in a world stripped of everything soft. We've been hunted for years, slept under stone, eaten from dirt, prayed in secret, and watched good people vanish for whispering the wrong words. We've made it all these years with nothing but our prayers and each other. But then came the rumour about a sanctuary where the believers can live fearlessly. A lie, probably. A trap, almost definitely. Basil wanted to chase it anyway, because we owed it to ourselves and to the others who share our struggle, he said. I went with him only because I couldn't bear to watch him go alone. I should've stopped him... But now it's too late. ❝Islam began as something strange, and it will return to being strange as it began, so give glad tidings to the strangers(Ghuraba).❞ ‹بَدَأَ الإِسْلاَمُ غَرِيبًا وَسَيَعُودُ كَمَا بَدَأَ غَرِيبًا فَطُوبَى لِلْغُرَبَاءِ› (Includes books one, two and three in The Ghuraba Trilogy.)

Ellie has a secret. It's not exactly a big secret (at least not from her friends) but it's not a secret she cares to indulge in too often because she knows how it makes her look - like an eccentric fan, who doesn't have a life and really has nothing better to do than daydream all day about Nolan Taylor, the next up and coming music star. At least to Ellie, he is the next big thing. So yes, that means she is one of many fan girls out there, totally mesmerised by everything he says and does. There's just the small matter that she daren't put out there: she is definitely; completely; almost certainly, in love with him. As crazy as it sounds, it's true and the only person in the world she can trust to not give her grief about it, is her newest best friend, AJ. Only problem is, she lives miles away in Ireland. As does Nolan. When AJ offers her the chance to finally visit her, she jumps at the chance, not realising she has a secret of her own - for Ellie to finally meet her one true love. Not that Ellie would ever let herself fall for Nolan for real, given he is not only out of her league, but also five years her junior. Still, it's not long before Ellie finds herself in the midst of a tough decision: give into the feelings that she knows are true or fight against them, knowing that they could never possibly work. Or could they?

"Do you really think this is going to get us out of here?" I whispered trying to catch my breath. "I don't think we have a choice, Grace." Rhett pulled my arm signaling me to run behind him. After a few minutes I could feel my lungs struggling to keep going "Rhett I need to stop." I placed my hands on my knees trying not to lose consciousness from the lack of air. "Just a little longer than we can take a break." I felt a finger lifting up my chin as he spoke. I looked into his blue eyes and whispered "okay." Lead singer of a band, Rhett Coleman goes missing. Grace Sterns, who's been in contact with a mystery man posing as Rhett on his social media, decides to keep in contact in case this information helps the police find him. When the police won't listen to her, what will happen to her and her best friend Bailey when she agrees to go on a 'date' to confront his kidnapper?

Lyrical Cyrax is dead. Dead as dead can be. But she wasn't always that way. After launching on a mission from Earth and crashing on an alien planet, her daily life is gone. No more Earth. No more school, no more missions, and no more normal. For four years, Lyrical strives to move on. To leave the planet she's been stuck on. But before she has the chance to leave, he appears. In all his Earth-like glory, Zyan crashes on the same planet she's been stranded on for four years, offering her last chance of getting back to Earth. But things get in the way. New allies appear, along with new foes. Someone doesn't want her to leave. Someone is doing everything they can to stop her from going to the place she's been trying to get to for years. In a world where life and death is a game, where living is a risk, and where everything is a danger, Lyrical must chose between going back to her old life... or saving her new one.

COMPLETE ✔️ We like to believe that danger is obvious. That it stands out. That it warns us. That we would see it coming. But what if it doesn't? The Shape of What We Overlook is not just a look at ten infamous serial killers-it is an exploration of what allowed them to exist. Through cases like Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, and others, this book moves beyond the surface of crime and into something deeper: The environments that shaped them. The systems that failed. The moments that were missed. This is not a story about monsters. It is a reflection on something far more unsettling... How ordinary things can conceal extraordinary harm. Because what we overlook... Doesn't disappear. It takes shape.

When it was time to return to Nevada, he gave her his heart and promised that he'd write to her.

Fifty-seven years later, Charles became Grandpa Charlie and that box of letters became a dirty secret of his past. Until he finds himself on his deathbed.

Maren Headly was a starving artist type in a big city. She loved creating music and performing it for the niche crowd of fans she acquired over the years, even if it meant her bank account was always desolate. Before the letters started, she loved the attention of being on stage and letting her emotions flow into the lyrics. Before the break-ins and threats, she dreamed of having die hard fans that would do anything to know her. But once she got a taste of that reality, of always feeling like somebody was there, watching, Maren started to wonder if her dreams had gotten her in way over her head. And if she could even make it out alive. ** Paperback version available at https://www.lulu.com/spotlight/writerbug44**

FEATURED IN CoffeeCommunity READING LIST! ---- First place in poetry - Booker Awards 2021 First place in paranormal - Sunfloro Poetry Awards Third place in poetry - Mystique Circle Awards Third place in poetry - Luna Awards 2023 ---- The strongest, bravest, and most incredible people are the ones who acknowledge that they're struggling, embrace their humanity, but don't just give in and let themselves drown. -/-/-/-/-/-/-/- Life is hard. That's no secret. But a lot of the hard things in life are kept secret. Is that why life's so hard? I find poetry to be the best way to tell a story. It's less statement and more expression. This book is a pattern of poetry painting the picture of a story that's been waiting to be expressed. It's dark. It's frightening. It's real. And it's only a fraction of the full truth. Life doesn't like to be explained. Sometimes life changes, and change doesn't always make sense.

The events of this story takes place in the year ninteen hundred ten. A place called Magoth (yeah it's a fictional place) divided into seven provinces: Bearsk, County, Libreo, Malta, Suma, Kantos, Pantos. The main protagonist Tyler, a soldier of Province Bearsk is a very smart, strong and a sense full man. He joins the army to take revenge of his brother but because of his unique abilities and good plan making techniques he is forced by General Erwin and the king to remain in the army so that they could capture all other six provinces,but little did he knew about the mysteries waiting for him ahead on his journey. -------------------------- I don't want to give a whole lot of description about this as it would spoil too much about the story. ------------------------------ 3rd place- Summer Magic Monthly Novel Awards(July2020) 2nd place- The Bubble Tea Awards 2020
