"A hallucinogen, you are not what you appear to be." A series of words in poetic form straight from my mind that describe the most severe heartaches and battles within my head.

"bring forth the passion and lust from deep in my body, i'll put on a show just to keep myself happy, being used is better than serving no purpose at all." A poetry collection unravelling the comfort in intimacy and mental health issues linked to the act. This doesn't convey a relationship in any means, but the longing for love and affection through frequent hook ups. Intended for mature audiences, though I'm sure that's already blatant.

A collection of my poems about love, crushes, depression, feeling lonely and pretty much all the emotions I go through as an angsty teenager :P Hope you enjoy! I've been adding to this book since I was 15 (I'm 21 now). The poems get better as the book progresses (and as I've gotten older), so you might want to start reading from the latter chapters! IMPORTANT: Wattpad won't let me add more poems to this book anymore, so everything I've written in 2023 and after (and everything I'll write in future) is in my other book "Shadows and Silhouette." My writing has improved over the years, so I'd recommend reading that instead haha, but feel free to read in a chronological order. Highest rating: #2 in poetry

**Currently Extending** **2017 WATTY AWARD WINNER** Olivia Chastain's life was seemingly perfect until she was violently thrust into a nightmare that would haunt her for years to come. Kidnapped by a sadistic murderer, Olivia is subjected to atrocities she'll never be able to erase from her memory. When she's inexplicably released from his grip, horrifying flashbacks plague her every waking moment, but that's not the worst of what she's forced to contend with - the masked madman roams free, preying on other unsuspecting souls. As the days pass, the deviant's reign of terror grows more and more grotesque. As the only surviving victim, Olivia fears he'll find her and finish what he started. Will the authorities catch the elusive psychopath before he strikes again?

A collection of old and new poems over the past years. Each chapter is a different poem. Some are about love, relationships, break-ups. Others about self reflection, doubt, depression. There is healing and nature based poems as well. Would love feedback. Please let me know what you liked and what I could work on. Thank you so much for reading!

Self-written poems about my everyday feelings and thoughts to which some of you might relate.

This guide covers the basics of witchcraft: practices, rituals, beliefs, magic, items. It is mostly directed toward beginners but anyone can benefit from it. Everything is explained clearly and definitions of possibly confusing or unfamiliar words are given in the beginning of each chapter. This is a book for someone who wants to know what witchcraft is and wants to be part of it, not someone who just wants to do some spells at midnight. There is nothing dangerous included in this guide. If you are looking for black magic this guide is not for you. Sources I used as inspiration are provided at the end of each chapter.

Once found, he takes them into the woods and skins them alive, prolonging the experience as much as he can, but the satisfaction always wanes. Aislinn Cain and the Serial Crimes Tracking Unit have just finished up another case when they get the call. Now they are packing their bags and heading for Alaska in March. The team must overcome the hostile locals and harsh climate to catch a killer before he steals the life of another woman.
