Cured HIV, or AIDS.
Who knows!
I sure as he'll don't.
I'm terrified for my future.
I'm teriffied of going out into he world as me.
As a transgender, gay teenager.
Because I don't want to die!
I don't want to be another statistic.
I don't want to be a number.
I am so afraid for the future.
People like me, fight so hard to stop the future from destroying them.
I don't want a future where I won't be able to be me.
I don't want a future where I am ridiculed, tormented.

I think I have some sort of complex.
I'm so sure that I can change the world,
That it effects me mentally and physically.
Transgender people are still people.
Transgender people are 3 times more as likely to be murder.
To be raped.
To be attacked.
Stop this.
Stop this!
I need your help.
Help me save the world.
Help me change everything.
Help me, help the future.
We can do this together.
Stop the statistics.
Stop the attacks.

Currant Choir
Having passed out while performing a ritual due to excessive exsanguination, Leon, the youthful son of the esteemed Lumenhart family finds himself back in the world of the living:Laying in a pool of his own blood.Self-inflicted wounds mysteriously gone.And with his head full of memories that aren't exactly his... or are they? "Oh boy." Warning! - There is likely not enough tags I can put up for this novel so please take this frontal warning instead. I can promise you a great deal of horror, gore, chaos and pure edge, but also everything on the opposite site of the spectrum from side characters. To be blunt, the MC is not a good person, so unless you're interested in such a thing, I'd strongly advise you to not read Currant Choir.

In The Maw Of The Gods
Synopsis Lilly Harper was always the type to keep to herself. She struggled to make friendships and so, she simply opted not to. That was why moving to the coastal town of Wilham didn’t bother her. She wasn’t leaving anybody behind and she certainly didn’t expect to be making any friends any time soon. However, when she starts hearing about the school’s “Magic Club”—a group of weirdos who claim that magic is real, she can’t deny that she’s slightly intrigued. Then without warning, she suddenly finds herself wrapped up with them. And what if they aren’t crazy? What if magic is actually real? And what if it’s because of that magic that something more powerful than they could ever conceive of is drawn to Wilham? I plan to follow a release schedule of Tuesday/Friday. Average chapter length will be 4,000 to 6,000 words and I will be using multiple POV's quite often. Also to note, while I am flagging the story with content warnings, I am only doing so because there are specific moments where it will be needed. Overall, the story will be relatively tame and I plan to put extra warnings at the beginning of chapters that it applies to. Thank you to everybody who decides to give my story a chance and I hope you enjoy it!

"You're such a loser.""And you're so hot in that."She looked at him and found him staring at her, his eyes glinting as if he was some kind of a predator. Her face heated up and her jaw set before swinging at him with a slap. Nathan's head snapped to the side and it seemed as if he was blinking out the spots of colours that constantly danced in front of his eyes."Damn..." he groaned. "That's two for two." He massaged his jaw and caressed his inflamed cheek. "You do know I'm going to get you back for that.""I'm sure you're going to do something worse than slap me back, aren't you?"He smiled wickedly at her. "I would slap you but that would be considered animal abuse." He tittered receiving a glare from her.
