The Last Dance
The Last Dance The heavy red curtains swayed slightly as the final call echoed backstage. The auditorium was packed, but backstage was silent—almost holy in its stillness. The hum of anticipation from the crowd seeped through the walls, but all she could hear was her heartbeat.

The Loneliness of Always Being Online
The Loneliness of Always Being Online There’s a moment—quiet, imperceptible—when the blue light of your screen becomes the only light in the room. It could be 2:00 AM, or 4:00 in the afternoon; the clock loses meaning when you're always connected. The feed scrolls endlessly, a stream of opinions, selfies, celebrations, rage, and humor. You like, you comment, you share, but your fingers feel cold, and your chest feels a little hollow. You are surrounded by people, yet deeply, stubbornly alone.

What If We're All Just Characters in Someone's Draft Folder?
What If We're All Just Characters in Someone's Draft Folder? Somewhere, beyond the veil of our observable reality, maybe beyond space and time as we understand them, imagine this: a cluttered desktop screen, a blinking cursor, a folder titled "Drafts". In it, thousands—maybe millions—of half-written stories, fragmented characters, speculative worlds. And what if we—you, me, your dog, the man who delivers your mail, the quiet girl who always sits in the corner at lunch—are all part of one of these drafts? Not final products. Not finished novels. Just characters in someone’s work-in-progress. A cosmic draft.
