Welcome to my world series: Janet's diary entry one

posted by nimone

Dear diary.
Wow what a cheesy start to a diary entry! I don't understand how a diary is supposed to work, there doesn't seem to be much point. I guess it is best to begin as to why I have to write here anyway.

I have been having many so called, misunderstandings at school. And after a lot of parent teacher meetings they have decided to send me to a counsellor.
There I met this man named Dr Fey (weird name I know).

He کہا that I needed to find a way of expressing my feelings. That is where this diary comes in. He explained that in-order to get rid of my socialophobia (afraid of social confrontation)...

The Boy With The Ring

posted by MissMuffin38

From within the دل of the forsaken village, the sleepy sun creeps out from the silent clouds it had been hiding behind for the past few days. Skies are blue, but only just, as the rain only fell yesterday, pouring onto the pavements below. The sun's shining streaks plaster the stony ground, creating light, dusty shadows of the villagers; their never-ending work continuing throughout the day. Children from the village play on the cobbles, darting and weaving in and out of the few passers-by on the quiet streets, chasing after each other without a worry in the world. The smiles on their faces...

100 Rooms Ch 3 Tell me what آپ think!

III The Library
The اگلے room Ember visited was to her a Heaven on Earth. An enormous room just for holding books! The ceiling was so high it would have taken ten of her standing on سب, سب سے اوپر of one another the reach it. The shelves and shelves of کتابیں were piled right up to the سب, سب سے اوپر and there were several ladders placed conveniently so that she could reach the topmost books.
Ember walked round the room as though she were in a dream. She loved reading and devoured every book she found but she had never had a whole لائبریری full of them to herself. She barely knew where to start. Every square inch of...

II The Kitchen.

Unsure where to go Ember dithered in the corridor outside the nursery for almost ten منٹ the اگلے morning. But soon the delicious smell of apples and cinnamon reached her nose.
She followed the scent until she reached a large old fashioned kitchen. An old, wooden table, worn and scrubbed filled the middle of the room. It was the biggest باورچی خانے, باورچی خانہ Ember had ever saw. One side of the room was simply all cupboards and drawers of all different shapes and coloured. Ember’s curiosity burned but she was distracted سے طرف کی a large woman wearing an apron. She was taking a steaming apple...

The girls came back with a huge jug of water."Okay,now it's time to get down to buissness."Rachel said.She moved over to the drawer,and slowly opened it.She took out a long,silver key.

"Okay,look I have way مزید power than you,and I really don't need you,only as bait of course."Rachel added quickly,so Josie would get it,"Once your silly,dumb,sister knows I have you,there'll be no stopping me.Haley,get me my phone!"Haley obediently retrieved the phone.

Famous authors, their writings and their rejection letters

posted by brandonaz

This was take from a post on Tumblr that I found interesting and wanted to share! (And I did some of my own Googling and added to the list.) It just goes to دکھائیں that someone telling آپ that your writing isn't good doesn't mean anything. People just think differently from each other. ;P

Sylvia Plath: There certainly isn’t enough genuine talent for us to take notice.

Rudyard Kipling: I’m sorry Mr. Kipling, but آپ just don’t know how to use the English language.

Emily Dickinson: [Your poems] are quite as remarkable for defects as for beauties and are generally devoid of true poetical qualities....

Jake looked at her for a moment,as if he longed for her.His eyes were lit up with desire,they sparkled as he looked at her.Rachel must have sensed this feeling because she came over and said,"Well آپ two better get going to wherever آپ were heading because Jake and I are supposed to be going roller skating.Right Jake?""ummm....Oh yeah um yes."Jake answered."I thought so,now آپ two better get going.Ta ta!"she کہا as she dismissed them.

It was a dark night and there wasn't a single person around. The sounds of the ocean hitting the rocks below and the gusts of winds blowing through the empty black sky above. No stars and no moon. A man standing on the edge of the cliff looking over at the crashing waves below with only one thought. "Why not jump? What's left for me?" All the sounds vanished in his head. He took a step a little closer to the edge. A car pulls up with a girl in it. She gets out and starts screaming the mans name with tears in her eyes. "James! Please don't jump! I love you!" He couldn't hear her as he looked...

Lost Memories Part 2 (Still مزید coming after this)

posted by dragonwriter

Who was that girl? How was my sister there? What was the place I was in? I have so many سوالات and so little answers. After lying on the ground for a while I start to hear footsteps coming towards me so I sit up to investigate. It was a man in a heavy black کوٹ with a ڈاکو, ہڈ on and a لپیٹ, لفاف کریں around his mouth. With his mouth covered so much I couldn't see who he was. He walks past me without even noticing me so I stood up to follow him.

As I am walking buildings start to appear around us forming the empty space around us into a city. He walks around a corner causing me to lose sight of him....

"Shaun, wake up. آپ need to go now." The words I heard a faint voice say. It sounded familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it. Who was it? I just couldn't figure it out no matter how hard I tried. اگلے was a sound. Blood spraying from a body. The drops hit the ground one سے طرف کی one. The sound echoing through my head like bells going off simultaneously. My eyes open in an instance. The only color I see is red. I rub my eye and feel the blood i had heard. It was mine.

I fall back to the ground as my eyes start to close slowly. I can hear that voice again. "Get up! Please get up! I need you,...

My olympian hero. Introduction.

I remember running down a long corridor...I knew soon that I would have no where left to run and 'they' would get me. I tried not to think about that part though.

"Get her!" I heard them yell and I just got even مزید nervous. I picked up my speed and ended up tripping, falling, and sliding on the floor on my stomach. I wince as I hit the دیوار and I turn over to find one of them standing right infront of me. Truth be told I had no reason why they were chasing me. I had never done anything wrong and my parents from what I knew didn't want me so I lived in foster care.

Broken and Bruised *Guide*

posted by peppergirl30

I've decided that I'm writing a guide first to my fanfiction. Because if people read the guide and like the storyline, then I'll write it. If they think it isn't good and nobody would read it, then I won't. I don't want to waste energy writing this if nobody wants to read it.
First, a little insight on the ''idea'' for this: Honestly, I don't know how it happened. I was just sitting down, reading, and it hit me. Like a ذائقہ, مارنا in the face. What if, somebody came ہوم one day, all bruised? Bruises on their arms, legs, face, everywhere. And the family shows concern, and wants to know who did it-...

بنفشی, وایلیٹ Symphony

posted by elizasmomma

Echoes from the outside
The shades of evening soul
Step سے طرف کی step dance toward the open windows
Bring out the sounds when the wind blows
Upon my face and around my skin
A melody touches to any hearts,
Hush, again and again till it echoes inside
Erase the elegy of pain and sorrow
Bring the wings to follow the flying sparrow

Come inside and spread the feels
Flaunt me to the air in vibrating melody
Me, diving in tunes of melancholy
Voicing a happy song internally
Stay in spirit for life, love lively

And come an estranged voice
Jump over the notes chasing after me
Fluently آپ flute the words, pour a new melody...

Closer [chapter one]

Ciel Parker walked down the dark, gray hallway on the سب, سب سے اوپر floor of the mental institution he worked at. His brown hair fell over his deep green eyes; the white light hanging above was too harsh for his sensitive vision. He glanced up as he walked further down the hallway, trying to see how long it was until he reached his office.

He passed cells B and C, slightly nodding as acknowledgement to the security guards standing in front of the doors. The سب, سب سے اوپر floor of Virginia’s Mental Institution held the worst patients the state had to offer. People with severe schizophrenia, extreme depression,...
