This is still a work in progress, and I'm not sure how it will fit into the rest of the story, but I'd love some feedback. Thanks » Read...
This short story deviates a lot from my normal stuff. It is more of a romance story that I was inspired to write out of no where one day. It details the emotional trip of a young man trying to muster the courage to ask his dream girl out. » Read...

This post is mostly just to have something on here. I was getting tired of having a profile that doesn't have any written work published. More on the way when I have time.

This poem was written a few years ago in high school. It consi... » Read...
Speaks of strength in weakness, of hope in despair, of power made perfect in weakness, of free rain bringing newness of life » Read...
A paranormal tale about an old woman, her past, and an old house. This needs work, but the plot is mainly what I' m concerned with now. I'll flesh it out on the rewrite. » Read...
