Sixteen-year-old Maya feels caught between two worlds - her African father's strong religious values and her European mother's agnostic detachment. She finds solace in music, curating playlists with her best friend, Lila, whose bohemian style and creative spirit perfectly complement Maya's bold, futuristic fashion sense.
When Maya discovers an ancient mixtape in her attic, she unwittingly unlocks a realm where melodies summon spirits tied to their emotions. As they play the mixtape, they realise that some songs hold hidden messages when played in reverse, requiring them to decode the lyrics to uncover secrets that could change everything. Among the spirits is Kofi, a boy who seems to understand her like no one else. But as their connection deepens, a vengeful spirit emerges, threatening everything Maya holds dear.
In this enchanting journey of self-discovery and ghostly romance, Maya and Lila must navigate the mysteries of the mixtape and learn that music has the power to heal wounds, bridge worlds, and connect hearts across realms and time.

Love Looking For Words
Kharise is not a lover. The very thought of it is repulsive to her. Mostly because she has had her heart broken in such a manner that seems irreparable. Living in a world where her father shows her the littlest love known to mankind and her best friend in the world seems to be drifting away, music is her only release. Rapping is her sole therapy. That is, until she runs into someone who makes her feel things she never thought she could feel, who makes her wonder if letting him in might actually be worth the risk, who changes her life forever... *** He has everything he could ever wish for. Well, almost. The money, piling. The fame, intoxicating. The voice, ethereal. Love, well...hold that thought. Basking in all the fame and glory of an artiste whose music ranks #1, #2 and #3 in the world chart should be more than enough for a 17 year old popstar. But DantΓ© is used to always wanting more. What he is not used to however, is needing it. Needing her.Complete
where ghosts wander || ONC 2022
Lila Unwinter is not a very talented witch; she mostly has a lot of ambition, determination, and enough spite to last her a few hundred years. How else was she supposed to survive the past sixteen years, after she lost both her best friend and her family over something she can barely even remember now? They're not dead, of course, but for all that they care about her, she might as well be. But then her magic decides to send her home for lunch break one day, and she not only finds out about a curse that's taken hold of her way back when she was only six years old, but also reconnects with her childhood friend (who's considerably less alive now). A series of events unfolds that may well redefine Lila's perception of both love and magic itself. Featuring: way too many ghosts, the town at the Edge of the world, knife and sword-wielding girls, sapphic childhood-friends-to-lovers, ghost kitties, weird magic and magical creatures, and a certain three-headed dog. ________________ an entry for the open novella contest 2022Complete

But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to.
