Links to some of my short stories (works of fiction)

from Pinterest

As a ghostwriter, I do not see my name written in any kind of medium nowadays, that is why I decided to share these short stories and other works of fiction.  Even if these are not my best works, I hope, at the very least, that you would be entertained by one or two of them, if not all. 

I am not a grammarian, and I am definitely not a blurb writer, so I was already OK with just sharing the titles until one of my friends suggested that I would describe them even just a little.  Oh my goodness.  I hope these "descriptions" would make you interested in clicking on these stories:  

• A FIGHT WITHIN- a man falls in love with his best friend's daughter.  Things get more complicated when he becomes the young girl's guardian when her parents' lives were cut short. 

• CYCLONE'S FURY- a young girl "witnesses" her father's death.  Is revenge the only answer?

• INTO THE SETTING SUN - Magdalene and Lionel spent one beautiful day together after being left by the bus they were both supposed to ride.  In that short span of time, they both shared strong feelings, but they had to part ways because of Lionel's court battles.

• KATRINA e GIACOMO- Katrina, an unconsciously beautiful Filipina, becomes the object of affection of a little boy who promises to marry her one day.  Disclaimer:  Even if this is a work of fiction, this was done because of a request of a friend of mine. Her only requirements were that the woman was supposed to be eight years older than the guy and he was supposed to be a foreigner and an architect at that.  She had a certain country/nationality in mind, but I have never been to that place and I am not very familiar with their language and culture etc. so I chose Italy. The original title was Unconsciously Beautiful because even if my friend knows she's not ugly, she doesn't know the effect she has on people.  I caught several guys staring at her, and they almost hit the wall. Any similarities to your lives and the lives of people you know would just be a coincidence.

• MISUNDERSTOOD- a man who lost his daughter and his wife the same day becomes sort of a hermit...years later he meets a little girl who looks like his dead daughter.  Their friendship is misunderstood by the neighbors.

• PASASALAMAT - This story, like millions of stories out there, tries to prove that everyone should be given a chance to change.  A very lethal politician marries the daughter of someone rich and powerful.  He thought he was only using her to have more clout, but she changed his life, and the whole town is grateful to her.  Did I give everything away? Not really.  

• PATHWAYS - two people who were in love with each other for the longest time waited and waited and waited for each other, until it was too late.  

• TEMPORARY MELODY - love and obsession

• TENDER TROUBLES- Lara Mia Veronica submitted this story for SC's Challenge.(the writer should NOT explicitly describe the scenes...only imply them...the challenge is to make it as wholesome as possible--Lara/Nicca)

• THE AWAKENING OF ALDWICH- Let me take you to a town called Aldwich sometime in the not-so-distant past.  The people there were simple folk who dressed with modernity but were dated when it came to current events and other stuff.  Women didn't go to work and girls didn't go to school.  They stayed at home either to do chores or share idle chatter.  Oh yes, there were no televisions, radios, and computers in this out - of- this- galaxy place.  If you wanted to research something, you had to go to the Public Library. #aids #educationforgirls 

• THE ENCHANTED CAVE -some kind of story for kids. 

• THE NEXT STEP - The screenplay I wrote was about the story of three siblings and their respective partners, and how their situations intertwine, but this one focuses on the youngest. Cleo, who is a genius that is beautiful and all that, but is so full of herself. When a rich young businessman falls for her, she uses someone to drive him away.  

• THE OTHER SIDE OF DAVID -an "honorable" man with a dark side

• THE UNDERDOG - a woman who has always thought she looked so plain that no one would love her could not be so wrong because her young, handsome, and very much single, boss, falls head over heels with her. 

• THROUGH THE EYES OF HER HEART #autism #autisticsavant #younglove #siblings
