about me

“the unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it, because it’s only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. stone crumbles. wood rots. people, well, they die, but things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on.”

"fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us dragons can be beaten." - g. k. chesterton

“you must be strong now. you must never give up. and when people make you cry and you are afraid of the dark, don't forget the light is always there.”

"do not read, as children do, to amuse yourself, or like the ambitious, for the purpose of instruction. no, read in order to live."

Rules of a Teacher

by dobbytheninja

Short Story: General Fiction, Romance, , Humor

Teachers should not develop crushes on their students, but John can't help it. And this, is much more than just a crush.

As terrible and disgustingly perverted as John knows it is, he's in love. With his student, Nicole. Yes, student. And with her Bambi-like eyes and G-rated smile, she has to be oblivious of his affection, so John decides to let her in on the secret, but he might have forgotten about one little thing...

My Boyfriend's Sins

by dobbytheninja

Short Story: Humor, Romance, General Fiction

Hearing about your boyfriend's cheating escapades is never fun. Having to hear about them after everyone else, well, it's much worse.

Hazel does not have the perfect life. She does not have the perfect family, and she does not have the perfect boyfriend. She knows this, and she never thinks otherwise, but never in her lifetime has she ever believed her boyfriend of cheating. Well, until the whole school witnesses it.

The Dummies Guide to Getting I...

by dobbytheninja

Short Story: Romance, General Fiction, Humor

When Nora is pushed into being inducted to A Haveren Fov, she has no choice. But the secret society's morals might just be too much...

Nora must become a member of her school's secret society, A Haveren Fov once she is accidently sent an invitation to one of their meetings that meant to go to her best friend, Chancey. Very soon, she absorbs herself in the group's morals and values. Another member (that is extremely striking, I might add) tries to help Nora leave the society, but it's not that easy. For anyone.---Okay, guys, this is meant to be a book, but until I have enough words, it's just going to be a long-ish story...---

In Case We Die

by dobbytheninja

Short Story: , General Fiction, Humor, Romance

Sissy never thought she'd be the one to get kidnapped and placed in a human cage. That is, until there's a gun to her back.

Once Sissy is abducted by the loser, Meathead and placed in a metal pen, she's scared for her life. Not knowing whether she'll live or die, she becomes friends with the boy, Jude (who is, may I add, tremendously gorgeous) and the young woman, Meredith who are also captives. What's even more astounding is that she's treated with compassion by her kidnapper. What is up with all of this? And how is she going to get out alive?

That Dark Alley...

by dobbytheninja

Short Story: General Fiction, Humor, Romance

The game? Date both of her best friends, ask them one question... and then choose.

Abbey's shocked when she finds out that her best friends, Mike and Henry have been carrying a torch for her for the last five years or so. But not as shocked as when they tell her they have a plan. A plan devised to help Abbey choose between the two of them. Then, Abbey starts non-platonic relationships with these hot guys. But how to choose... ---By the way, this will hopefully be a book, but sadly, I'm a huge fan on procrastination. We'll see...--- ***Also, I would just like to inform everyone that Abbey has NOT chosen yet, so whoever you may think she has already decided to choose, you may be wrong. I still have a few curve balls I haven't put in yet... ***

Kiss Me Like In the Movies

by dobbytheninja

Short Story: Romance, General Fiction, Humor

A collection of memories between a girl and a guy that would never have a happy ending.

I'm just gonna lay it out right now: Willow and Chase do not live happily ever after. They don't get the perfect suburban house with a white picket fence and all-American dog. There is no 'love at first sight' between them...but that doesn't mean that this story is a sad one. It's bittersweet, yes, but at the same time, maybe it teaches all of us that no matter how much we may try, happiness is but a coin toss. Maybe it teaches us to love with all of our hearts because life is short. Maybe it teaches us never to wear risque pajamas or let anyone nickname us 'Pampers.' Then again, maybe this is just a story. ---Oh, wow, looking back, this is a really cheesy pitch. Sorry about that. ---
