    Ash Hollow is the kind of town that remembers everything. In 1962, barely a hundred people call the forgotten Colorado town home. Everyone knows everyone. Everyone knows whose business is whose. And everyone knows which secrets are best left alone. Twelve-year-old Becky Lee Harrison has learned that lesson well. At home, she knows how to walk quietly, speak softly, hide a bruise, and make herself disappear. At school, she has her cousin Sally, a few precious moments of laughter, and the comforting illusion that someday she might escape.

    "He said he was going to visit his mother. He never came back." I was only a little girl when my father walked out of our lives. My brother and I spent years waiting for the day he would return, while our mother fought to raise us alone through unemployment, financial struggles, and heartbreak. We believed that one day he would remember us. Instead, when hope finally seemed within reach, he denied us and refused to acknowledge us as his children. The Weight of Absence is my true story, a memoir about growing up with an absent father, the invisible wounds abandonment leaves behind, and the extraordinary strength of a mother who never gave up. This is not a story about revenge. It is a story about survival, resilience, and finding the courage to turn pain into purpose. If you've ever felt abandoned, questioned your worth, or wondered how a parent's absence can shape a child's life, this story is for you. Based on a true story.

    Prólogo Nunca he sido buena expresándome, pero sí escribiendo. Algo que me ha ayudado a decir todas esas cosas que me guardo. También me gusta leer; leer romances tan bonitos que dan ganas de enamorarse, de sentir todas esas emociones que viven entre las páginas. Por eso escribo esta historia, para expresar todo lo que he sentido gracias a él. Esta historia que empezó siendo un instante, algo que parecía pasajero. Pero que con el tiempo se fue fortaleciendo. Que parece una montaña rusa, pero que aún así ha permanecido. Y que sin importar los mil obstáculos, me sigue llenando de emoción como desde el primer día.

    In the soot-choked industrial valley of Sheffield, fourteen-year-old Edward Vance carries the weight of a shattered family on his narrow shoulders. His home is a daily battleground of grinding poverty, debt, and the haunting trauma of a father broken by the First World War. To keep the bailiffs at bay and his younger siblings from freezing, Edward bleeds his youth away over scrubbing brushes, coal sacks, and dawn paper rounds. ​When a fleeting glimpse of silver Spitfires piercing the upper blue reveals a vision of freedom far above the filth of the earth, Edward makes a desperate, dangerous gamble. Armed with a stolen parish birth certificate, a forged signature, and a heart full of desperate resolve, he alters his age by four years and runs away to enlist in the Royal Air Force. ​Boarding an LNER corridor carriage into the cold English mist, he meets three other runaways hiding behind bravado and smoke rings: George, a plow-share-raised giant from Nottingham; Alfie, a sharp-tongued London dock worker; and Julian, a vicar's son who gets carsick on a bicycle. Bound together by deception, terror, and the fierce camaraderie of boys forced to become men, Edward and his new brothers hurtle toward a sky filled with fire, where they must discover if speed and altitude can truly outrun the ghosts of their past.

    "Part reality, part imagination. This story is inspired by the real moments, distance, and devotion shared between my partner and me-blended with the 'what ifs' that haunted the spaces in between." Nineteen-year-old Rin is a ghost in two worlds. Stranded between her formative years in Davao and her new life in Hiroshima, her Japanese is hesitant, her heart is loud, and her UI/UX design layouts are a broken mess. Then comes Ren. A twenty-six-year-old systems architect, Ren is everything Rin isn't: meticulous, disciplined, and calm as cool water over river stones. Over quiet cafe sessions, napkin sketches, and walks along the Motoyasu River, he doesn't just teach her design hierarchy-he becomes her safe harbor in a city where she felt invisible. But life operates on strict logic. Bound to return to the Philippines to finish her degree at Ateneo de Davao, Rin wants a promise. Ren, knowing the heavy cost of waiting for a man an ocean away, gives her something harder instead: he lets her go so she can learn to fly on her own. Spanning four years, late-night coding sessions, silent social media views, and thousands of miles, [Title] is a deeply personal, slow-burn contemporary romance about finding your own voice, mastering your craft, and learning that true love doesn't anchor you down-it builds the bridge home. *Based on true events, personal memories, and alternate-timeline 'what ifs' (featuring two distinct endings). *Features two distinct endings (Path 1: Quiet Reunion / Path 2: Emotional Winter Solstice Redemption).

    The Actual Fool is a bittersweet story about friendship, hesitation, and the kind of feelings that grow quietly while someone keeps insisting they're nothing more. Through missed chances, bad timing, Bushes, tarot cards, chaotic adventures, and one very persistent Blue Moon, the Fool learns that sometimes the hardest part isn't losing someone, but realizing you should have acted when certainty was standing right in front of you. In the end, there is no grand romance, only one final Lover-Man gesture: "Good afternoon. Good evening. And good night."

    I only wanted a place to read in the shade. Then I woke up a sleeping stranger to ask for the empty bed beside her, and by midnight I couldn't stop thinking about her laugh, her eyes, the way she said things wrong in English and I didn't care. She had a boyfriend the whole time. I knew, and I still couldn't make myself walk away. This is the one day that still gets to me.
