Original Fiction-Welcome
My original fiction ranges from suspenseful to humorous, fantasy to historical fiction, and so on and so forth. I've been writing fiction since I was in 6th grade and just finished (as of May, 2012) a novella called "The Truth of Life in Lyricism" as a sequel to my NaNoWriMo novel "It Gets Better" from 2011.
Projects and Updates
I will post new updates on projects ASAP. I LOVE to write and use any excuse I can to do it. So if I haven't posted in weeks/months, I'm probably either in a coma or dead. I have multiple projects, like a sequel to "Thoughts," called "Memories," and a new novella called "Off Limits," as well as short stories connected to my novel.

--Off Limits
Timothy Krall doesn't know the meaning of "off limits." A con-artist and thief to the core, everything is his for the taking. Until he gets bested by a wannabe. When he tries to find the mysterious girl who owns the shapely legs he saw running away from the scene that was supposed to hold his crime, he quickly realizes this game isn't just for fun anymore. It's for survival. And his life isn't the only one in danger.

--Thoughts .............................December 27th, 2012
There are these things that people have no idea exist. They're human, for all intents and purposes, but they can do so much more than a regular human being can. They're called Seers, and that's exactly what they do: they See. They See memories and disasters and the future and can even read people's minds sometimes, and for hundreds of years, the Seers have been waiting on the girl of the prophecy, the girl who will change everything.
And then she shows up.

There is a girl. She is sitting outside of a coffee shop, a headphone in one ear, the other dangling by her left thigh. She is wearing denim shorts and a grey and black T-shirt. Her hair is the color of wet sand, streaked with a lighter shade. Glasses are perched on her nose—I can’t see her eyes but I feel like they would be green. She seems like a green-eyed girl.

She gave him so much. She gave him the greatest lesson he would ever learn. And he would never get to thank her.
