Interventions
Hey everyone, sorry for not posting in six months or so, was focusing on finishing uni completely for the year and have just finished my first year in my degree a few days ago, so can focus on my writing again :) One of my classes was about creative writing and we had to write a bunch of short stories for a folio, and this is a fanfiction of sorts I guess that I wrote as an intervention to "My Last Duchess". Hope you enjoy!

Random Days (Part 2)
So this is the second part to a story I'm having to write for a uni assignment. This is also the final part of the story, I'll have to cut down the words for the assignment, so figured I'd share the original full version on here cause it was a nice random story I had to write up. I might continue writing this, or make a series with this character, not for uni, but just for fun, please let me know if you'd like to see more simple stories like this with this character or a continuation of this one in particular, cause I have enjoyed doing this, just random little snippets, no need for detailed plots, and plot twists, sometimes it's nice to do something simple. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this (You'll find the first part on my page) and have a great day/night!

Messed Up Systems
So in some of my books I'm in the middle of writing, there is some discussion about religion and deconstruction as I've seen this come up a few times over my social media since last year and I thought it was actually really interesting and thought-provoking discussion and wanted to include it in my novel and this is written from one of the perspectives of either the MC or someone the MC is talking to about this discussion, something they wrote out to vent out what they were trying to explain, cause this is an interesting discussion, especially as someone who used to be a Christian, raised one, I found this thought-provoking about people's different experiences. The personal details about the character were made up, though drew inspiration from a couple personal stories of mine to try and capture the emotions properly and also based off of some general points made in the actual debate I saw. Not trying to start an argument or offend anyone, just sharing an excerpt from a novel I'm working on about a topic that I find very thought-provoking and cause it's an interesting topic and kinda relevant in some ways. you can believe what you want, just remember that everyone's experiences is different and just cause they've left and no longer believe doesn't mean that they weren't an actual believer or haven't looked deep enough into the Bible and God, cause sometimes, when they do do that, what they see might not be what you believe, and that's valid, it's not the peaceful wonderous thing for everyone and there are some points to be aware of. Anyway, hope you enjoy, and remember this is just part of a fictitious piece of work, this is not aimed at anyone on here personally at all, and I apologize if triggers anything, please take care and look after yourself. Discussions are more than welcome around this, just please be respectful and aware of everyone around you :)

Past lives, alternate universes and the paranormal
This is an excerpt from a supernatural horror novel I'm working on, but also a little personal for me as well. Please proceed with caution, read the trigger warning and do what you will with that. Please above all stay hydrated and take care of yourselves. If you choose to read this, hope you enjoy and feel free to ask whatever questions you wish, provided they're genuine and respectful :)

Abstract Wars
He drew in a broken breath as he clutched his sides, blood leaking between his fingers. His claws pierced through the fabric as he clutched at his shirt. His wings were covered in blood, guts and indescribable filth; a jagged claw marks were sliced across his wings, having penetrated to the other side. No doubt there would be an infection later, but right now, he didn’t care.

Agonizing Reflections
He held a glass in his hand, it had a green tint that got darker towards the bottom of the glass. In the other hand, he held a pipe to his lips that had some smoldering herb in the bowl. Lowering the pipe, he exhaled a ring of smoke into the air as tears tried to fight their way up to the surface.

The Move
It was a Sunday afternoon after church, and River, her mum and grandfather were all gathered together at the small town's one and only coffee shop. They did this every Sunday, but this time it was a little different, River noted. Partially to do with what was coming, but also partially to do with-

Memories in the Stars
Ants are crawling up the tree next to me. Some are carrying little leaves, others little twigs and others nothing at all, just along for the ride. Surely they would have some sort of purpose, ants always seemed to operate on just what work needs to be done, so they were probably heading somewhere to do something important.

Confessions of a confused and changing daughter
Hey Mum, So I know you're not expecting this, but I have a confession to make. Remember that time when I was like 5 and you were serving dinner - mashed potato with butter, sausages and some veggies - and you found one of the sausages in the tray was partially eaten and left in the tray with the rest of the food?
