[Ongoing] A collection of unsettling or unusual short stories. Some have monsters, some have humor, some draw tears, some make you think, and some have artwork. Each is a revealing glance of someone's life.

Every writer has their own methods of coming up with story ideas and bringing them to life, and in this collection, I also share my process for each story, providing a revealing glance at what goes on behind the scenes.

I'm always open to constructive criticism, so if you decide to drop by, please feel free to leave feedback!

Draft Thought by _Ethelis_7051

This story is meant as journal for self-reflection purposes only. As someone whose emotions and thoughts are in constant chaos, I'm still grappling in this reality that I'm having a hard time to manage these intrusive thoughts that I often ruminate a lot. It's making me lose my mind and I'm struggling on how to articulate and express myself, but at least in here, I'm going to vent here. Feel free to exit this story if you don't like it. I'm just someone whose living in silence. You don't need to continue reading this one if it doesn't make sense to you. You know how I write things out of random and you might not understand some things. I feel chaotic inside that it's too hard to explain. Take note that this is not your typical story, this only contains words of personal essay which is based from daily experiences of the writer itself. And as a respect to the writer, refrain from commenting accusatory remarks and profanities. This story is entitled Draft Thought for a reason. A daily life reflection of thoughts, feelings and even random topics to talk about. An outlet to release the burdens placed on my mind, and as a way of expressing my own view on things. A/N: On later part of the story, there goes a compilation of special entries meant for depth introspection, catching the essence of feelings and seeing the glimpse of my past solitude journey.

Truth Be Told: A Collection Of Short Stories by BookLoverVenue

A collection of bone crawling short stories to leave you in a strange fix about the world. Join me to encounter the various unusual happenings that human kind imagines and only imagines. They feed the brain, FACINATION. And what do we more love than a little suspense, thriller, horror and fantasy? Caution: Heavy meaning, mild cursing, abuse. I prefer the story to be read by readers above 16 years. #All the published stories are finished. Yet, I might continue adding short stories but they will all be finished. Cover by me.

Creator's Journal by CC-Sterling

Creator's Journal opens a window into the everyday rhythm of a writer's life - the quiet mornings, restless midnights, messy drafts, and those fleeting sparks that can set entire worlds ablaze on paper. This series isn't just about writing, but about living - the small joys, the unexpected challenges, and the way stories weave themselves into ordinary days. Inside, you'll find reflections, behind-the-scenes moments, and unfiltered confessions from a creative mind that's always learning, failing, laughing... and starting again. Ever wondered what goes on in a writer's mind between coffee sips and midnight edits? Here, I pull back the curtain on the moments that shape a creative life. You'll find fleeting sparks of inspiration, unexpected challenges, and the little things that remind us why we create in the first place. Whether you're a fellow writer, an artist in another form, or simply someone who loves peeking into a creative mind at work, welcome. ☕ Pour yourself a cup, settle in, and let's share this journey-one page at a time. 📖 Comment your thoughts and tell me: When do your best ideas find you-morning or midnight?
