In quaint Willowbrook, autumn cast a melancholic pall over young Timothy's heart. Buddy, his once-vivacious canine companion, faded with time's relentless march. Buddy, astutely attuned to his young master's sorrow, resolved to bestow solace upon the boy's weary spirit. Thus, an audacious scheme blossomed within the depths of Buddy's loyal soul - to pilfer a place within Timothy's heart, in a heist unlike any other.
Under twilight's shroud, Buddy embarked on his mission. He pilfered vibrant blooms and tender notes from neighbors' gardens, symbols of comfort and devotion. With expert stealth, Buddy infiltrated Timothy's chamber, leaving behind a tableau of fragrant flowers and whispered yearnings.
At dawn, Timothy awoke to a stolen symphony. The blossoms caressed his senses, while the notes serenaded his heart. Buddy's heist had purloined more than mere trinkets; it carved an indelible sanctuary within Timothy's soul.
As autumn wove its amber tapestry, in the days that followed, Willowbrook remained unaware of the audacious heist that had transpired. But within the heart of Timothy and the fading memories of Buddy, the stolen treasures were an ethereal gift, a testament to the enduring power of love, and a memory that would forever be etched upon their souls.

The Bear and the Bridge
The apartment was quiet except for the hum of the refrigerator and the occasional groan of the pipes. Emma sat on her bed, her laptop open in front of her, the cursor blinking expectantly on an empty email. She could hear the muffled sounds of traffic from the street below, a steady reminder that life outside her window was moving forward, even if she felt stuck.

Go Tell it on the Mountain by James Baldwin
Published on the 18th of May, 1953, ‘Go Tell it on the Mountain’ became the book that James Baldwin is probably most famous for. Including the very real impacts of violence upon the African American community during a time of turbulence for Civil Rights, James Baldwin became an absolute superstar not just of his race, but of the oppressed in every situation, in every country, all over the world. From Palestine to the Civil Rights Movement, from the LGBTQA+ to Muslim Migrants from war-torn countries, James Baldwin is the voice of the oppressed not just through the way he presents the division, but the way he presents a reality that the oppressors could not possibly be aware of. A reality in which every day is a fight to survive. What makes this even more real is that this is a semi-autobiographical novel. In my personal opinion, James Baldwin was the most articulate man in history.
