In a small zinc-roof house in Jamestown, where the rain leaks through the ceiling and hope is often in short supply, lives a little girl with a voice too big for her body. *Nora Mensah is five years old.* When she sings, the whole compound stops to listen. Fishermen forget their nets. Babies stop crying. Even the rain seems to quiet down. But a beautiful voice cannot pay school fees. It cannot buy medicine. And it cannot fix a leaking roof. When Nora's mother, *Ama*, suffers a stroke and the hospital bills pile higher than they can ever afford, Nora makes a decision. She will use the only gift she has. She will sing. From the crowded stalls of *Makola Market* to the Friday night stage at a bar in *Kaneshie*, Nora's voice begins to travel. A tourist records her. The video goes viral. And suddenly, the world is listening to a girl from Jamestown. But fame brings new problems. Judgment. Pressure. Choices no child should have to make. And through it all, Nora holds on to one promise written in her old notebook: _"One day I will buy Mama a house that never leaks when it rains."_ With the help of *Esi Shaw*, a stranger who sees more in Nora than just talent, and the songs passed down from her grandmother *Efua*, Nora must learn that courage isn't about being fearless. It's about singing anyway. _The Voice of Nora_ is a story about poverty and hope. About a mother's sacrifice and a daughter's determination. About music that heals, and a promise that changes everything. Because sometimes, the smallest voice is the one the world needs to hear the most.

#30DC "I've never had a real reason to favor a color before. Black, white, and grays have always been my classic reality, but the color red is beginning to come alive for me. A ripple of frisson trickles through me at the thought, leaving me stunned in numb silence in the middle of the living room. Ah, well, would you look at me? Gaining an interest in colors I will never see. Don't get me wrong, I will always find peace in the depth of true black or the contrast brilliant white brings, and since most of my world is gray and muddled, why hope to think it could be otherwise? As I crash into the large beanbag chair, a compelling thought pesters my insides. Have I allowed those shades to limit my view of life, in more ways than one?" **** Do you like sunsets, rainbows, or neon lights? Well, my apologies, but there won't be any fancy theatrical descriptions of color in this novel. Instead, it's just a college guy named Lukas. Finding his way through a black and white life. Does it sound melodramatic? Maybe. But this book is anything but dull as you witness the colors slowly seep into his world in a whirl of red, yellow, and blue, dashed with a hint of never-being-the-same.

this is for those who feel everything "too" deeply you are not too much you are not not enough you are not alone if no one told you today you matter

*Two lives. One name. One echo that changes everything.* In 180 AD, *Roman Murphy* is just a baker's son outside Rome. He avoids trouble, dodges the Empire, and wants to be left alone. Until strange visions start hitting him. Glass towers. Rain on stone. A man who looks like him, wearing dark clothes and carrying the weight of a company. In 2026, *Canadian Mr. Murphy* has everything on paper. He's 34, CEO of his own logistics firm, living alone in a Toronto condo. He has a company, parents who worry, and a younger sister who roasts him weekly. What he doesn't have is a reason to go home early. Until he saves a stranger from a car accident without thinking. Her name is *Maya*. A tailor. Hardworking, sharp, and done with rich men who think money solves everything. She grew up poor, built her own shop, and shares a cramped two-bedroom flat with her two best friends, *Tasha* and *Elise*. She thinks Murphy is just another proud CEO. She's wrong. When Murphy's reckless act of courage links him to Roman across 1800 years, both men start swapping instincts, skills, and fears. Roman suddenly knows how to measure fabric. Canadian Murphy suddenly knows how to stand between danger and the people he loves. A Roman man confused by "metal horses." A CEO confused by a needle. A tailor who won't be bought. A market woman who won't be ignored. Two families who force both Murphys to show up. Because the Echo won't stop until they learn the same lesson: *You can own a company. You can survive an empire. But you can't outsource courage, humility, or love.* _Mr. Murphy_ is a story about two ordinary men who discover that being a hero isn't about status. It's about choosing your people, again and again.

[Volume IV Beginning of January 2026 - End of June 2026] Welcome to Volume IV, it is not necessary to read any previous volumes or letters since each letter is a stand alone work. Feel free to start reading from the latest day, or pick your favorite Princess from the chapter names and start there. This is not written linearly. Thank you! No one wants to feel lonely. And the best cure is to have a friend talk to you and care about you. Sadly sometimes people don't have any friends to talk to, so I am writing these letters to anyone that wants to read them. This way you at least have a friend thinking about you and talking to you. Sometimes we take for granted our ability to lead a normal life. However for some, like the young royals of the world, they don't have the luxury of leading a normal life. Perhaps it's difficult for them to make friends? Perhaps they don't have anyone to talk to? Who knows? We are a family, and family takes care of each other. So these letters are addressed to them and are there if they need them. But everyone is free to read them in case you need them. They are as much for you as they are for them. Thanks everyone, enjoy! Saint Anthony Guide

Peotry from the dark to the light. #2 inspirational poetry 10/8/21 I tend to write poetry when I'm feeling down and stories when I'm feeling up. Therefore, a lot of these poems are a little darker than what I usually write. When I feel really stressed, I jot down a poem and immidiately feel better. Sometimes the poem is about the situation I am upset about, sometimes it's a made-up scenario. The poetry within is arranged in order from dark to light, so if you want to read it back to front feel free to do so. Poems are liable to be added and removed at times when I see fit or for publishing elsewhere. The title Determination Rising is because I hope each poem gives you new determination. I wrote them and they gave it to me.

This is a collection of various short stories I have written. Each piece has its own theme as well as one main one that flourishes throughout the collection. You can probably find at least one story that you like: there's a wide variety. Hope you enjoy them!

Golden Cheese loved flying. Her soul jam gave her wings that were connected to her in dough. Ever since then, she loves flying, and using her powers to help all those around her. However, a traumatic accident that could've been avoided might be the reason why she will never fly again. Will it be also the reason why she will find hope. Perhaps with another cookie? We will just have to find out. (Art on the main cover was made by me, although it might change as I write this story) There will be TW at the top of some chapters. Do be warned. Enjoy.
