Hi guys,

I'm sorry I haven't been active very much lately! Besides school, the main reason why I haven't been writing fanfiction lately is because I've been working on publishing a collection of thirteen short stories and poems in prose, entitled The Midnight Hour's Muse.

And guess what? It just came out today on Lulu.com. In a few days, it will be available on Amazon and Barnes&Noble as well.

If any of you guys are interested in reading my work, here's the link to the book on lulu.com.

This book is not fanfiction. It deals with mature themes, and there is some explicit ual content. It's really a collection of my thoughts on love and loss. I think the description aptly captures essence of the collection:

"A young girl loses herself in the green forest of s. A woman imagines an affair, but lacks the courage to pursue her beloved. Lost boys fall from stars, from tears, from bridges. They go missing in the breezes of time, and never return. Lovers are left waiting, brides are left wanting. Children leave for new worlds, some imagined, some real.

Whispered thoughts seep into the hush of dawn.

Girls, girls, why do you hate me so?

Boys, boys, why do you tempt me so?

Hearts falter. Breath stops.

And,

Yet,

Love flows forever in a short time.

Rich diction, haunting symbolism, and colorful imagery abound in this debut collection. Bittersweet and evocative, The Midnight Hour’s Muse shares a sensual exploration of the nuances of affection, womanhood, and obsession through a compelling array of short tales and poems in prose."
