The Bench At The Edge Of The Universe.
The bench at the edge of the universe.
I sat there. Silently. I said nothing when he sat next to me. We just stared in silence at what was in front of us. How should I describe that ? Light was a liquid, a see of stars and supernovae. Blindingly bright yet soothing to look at. It shifted like gentle wave under the breeze. I witnessed with my own two eyes the universe unfold all its mysteries. I watched in awe as the big bang happened again. We sat there witnessing the reinvention of time, of matter, of gravity, of life. It expanded until it broke and folded on itself until it vanished from existence and once again exploded into this incredible ocean of possibilities.
From the silence came his voice. "Why are you here?" He asked, and suddenly I heard the universe sing
"I do not know" I answered
"It's alright "
"Why are you here?" I asked
"Because the burden of life sometimes gets to heavy for my to lift it"
"So you come here to rest?"
"I am always here, it's just that sometimes I take a tangible form"
"Wouldn't it be heavier that way?"
"No. You humans do not carry this burden. I feel light when I am you"
"I do not feel so light when I am awake"
"Well come back here anytime you need then. You'll always exist here. You just need to remember it"

Do you even read something so bad, or play a game with terrible script and worldbuilding that you think "I'm not even good at writing but even I would do a better job ?" Yep, that was me when I was 14 and today I just finished writing my first book. Keep your eyes peeled because I fully intend to publish it !
Here it is !! (albeit really late ) Linda from Samba de Amigo and Linda from Rio (2011).
I hope you like it @sambadewinx !
The castle and the sea of cloud
To be completely honest this one was the first and I believed at that time it was just a dream and nothing more.
I was sitting under an arch on the side of a long open corridor, at one extremity there was a door, a monumental door, and on the other side it would simply connect with another corridor. I knew that if I went this way I would find a garden with apple trees with golden apples and blueberry bushes. The stone the pillars and the arch were made of was white stone which was lightly pink and golden due to the setting sun. My head was resting on the pillar and next to me was the empty of the sky. It was filled with clouds and I could almost touch them.
Beyond the roof of the castle the sky was a light blue becoming purple and the moon was bigger and brighter.
I heard laughs echoes on the walls and two teenagers arrived running and laughing, they stopped at the door and tried to calm themselves before knocking on it. They didn’t see my but I was watching them smiling softly.
I turned back to the moon and sight before getting up. I was taller than I normally am, my skin was a deep blue-grey and my jet black hair were tickling my face in the lazy breeze.
A few things about my book, consider that's it just the first draft, before any kind of rewrite and rework :
- 80333 words
- written in first person (MC's a woman, she is probably not really smart)
- fantasy, comedy
- slow burn (mutual pining, when I say slow I mean it, romance scares me)
- orange cat behaviour (MC)
- Worldbuilding, foreshadowing is my passion
I don't want to say too much

Hello 👋 can we request our own OCs?
Hello ! Nice to see new people in here !
To answer your question and make it public : YES ! You can absolutely request your own OCs but...
Remember the quality of a request is lesser than one of a comission and the time I will take to make and complete the piece will be completely random ! It can take a long while !
With that disclaimer out of the way, it will realistically, at worse, take up to three weeks but I will keep you updated during the whole process! You can always ask me question during the whole process !
I should have added ! All request / comissions should be asked in my dm ! It would be easier to keep in touch that way !
