Hi readers!

My name is Alice, I am 20 years old and am new to Penana but not new to writing! I'm excited to be entering writing contests and making new friends. So, a little bit of information about myself.

I am a book blogger who created a book blog last January during a really rough point in my life. Since creating this book blog, I've been overwhelmed by the amount of support that I've received from authors, other bloggers, total strangers on the internet. My parents are surprised by the numbers of books that I get set for free, my TBR list is already overflowing as it is!

I like to write poetry, stories in verse and random dribbles every now and again. My biggest dream is to be able to write a 50K novel since its bothering me that I can only write stories that are like 5K long in length XD Something needs to change, hopefully I can achieve this before I go off to University hopefully next year to study Creative Writing (UPDATE: This actually happened!)

Besides from books and writing, I love music. I collect vinyl records and listen to new songs everyday on Spotify, it's like my music addiction plus it's free which is perfect for me. I also love photography, corgis and koalas...

I have two pet cats.

I am also right-handed for writing but left-handed for anything else.

That's all for this post, thanks so much for reading. Don't forgot to follow me here on Penana, Wattpad (same username as it is here) and all of my social media (clickable links are in my bio on my profile).

Blondemaverick's blog has moved! You can find future blog posts on Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/18508414.K_M_Mayville/blog.

All past blog posts will of course stay here until further notice.

"Let's Talk About..." is where Blondemaverick waxes about things she hasn't written yet, talks about writing as a process, reviews recent stories she might have read, and basically puts off actually writing anything of value.

This is considered an open discussion, so there will be SPOILERS.

These dabbles would be things I had dreamed about. There are dreams that I’m in, dreams that I’m not. Though there are also times were I could control what would happen and dreams that I have no control over. But—most of the time, seeing these dreams is like watching a movie for me. They are so vivid that I could not help but write them down.

If you are a short story or extremely short story critic, this book's for you.

This is a compilation of some stories - old and new written by me. Hope you enjoy!

No two stories are linked.

All rights reserved.

This is an anthology.

A collection of shorts taken from six a.m walks, rainy day observations, random public rants, drunken episodes and odd encounters. This is a collection of various stories from a silent third-world city.

Romanticized for your convenience, designed to make you think and see the world in a different light, this collection is another attempt from one third world writer to voice out her visions to the world.

I hope you stay along and thank you for your time.

This is a story about a small girl making the discovery that could have ruined the whole world. This is a story where heartbreak is encouraged. This is a story about a demon meeting its monster. This is a story where hope has given up. Where a whole new world was destroyed by one child broken beyond repair.

So if you’re ready to hear how the broken ones’ mind works, then make sure not to whisper one word again.

Let this be our own little secret.

Just as the title implies, this will be a compilation of my random thoughts.

Little Poems, Short Stories, daily rants and more.

Begitu banyak kejadian di lalui Ivanka setelah ia pindah ke Kota Malang. Salah satu nya, menghindari pria-pria yang jatuh hati padanya. Hingga Ia dipertemukan oleh seorang pria dengan kehidupan sempurna namun kosong. Kedua nya memiliki rahasia besar di masa lalu yang semakin membuat mereka tertarik satu sama lain.

Rahasia apakah itu?

Cerita ini mengandung drama, romance, tragedy, dan komedi yang disugukan dengan penyampaian yang unik (mungkin).

The world used to be different. Right before everything changed. Often, while avoiding those who can't be trusted my mind whirls in circles. Can I trust them? WIll they pickpocket me?More importantly, Are they a writer?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alexa Naviaux was a little kid when the world fell. People known as writers were the problem. No, it wasn't the regular writers, the ones who wrote children's books or amazing novels. No, they weren't the cause of the world ending. Some people knew how to access the weave of our world, the interlinking of everything. They had special powers, able to change parts of the weave into paper and pens, able to reweave destiny, the way the story went. They could make themselves kings and queens if they wanted to, rule the world, change how everything went. Some could only tip the scales a bit, nudge the world in the right direction downhill. Others, like the current Ruler could scrap the story and rewrite it their own way. Corruption and power changed everyone and moved a madman in power. The ability to Write is feared, avoided like a plague. Can Alexa avoid it, or is she the one to rewrite her story?

Guys, when someone enters in your life ever feel that they were meant to be there? Well, I never saw it coming.  Here's a lil story I created for the one I miss deeply. Hope we collide again soon enough. Enjoy the story <3

It must tragic

The road of magic seems to sweep along

It was some madness couldn't began to have thought

That i would meet you

On the stellar of the empty space,

i can't begin to understand

How had met you

Your something special, caught my eye to the greatest height

It was uncertain,my nerves began to take flight

Oh i have seen you,

A star on the screen, that beamed with hope

That mouth of yours spoke high and might, while your smile kept you face all bright

A divine soul, how can i meet you?

I was unfooled

By your presence, too magnetic

333

Formed a longing spark,

Catching your heart

Even if the distance was far

It felt like a good start...

And thats when it happened

On that day, set in stone

Oh how

i could have i known

That we would be friends

Forming a endless bond

I felt lovesick

But just went with it;

knew you were a damn good reason

For me to be apart of it

I didn’t lose hope

My intuition was too far ahead, where did we start?

Was this apart of the stars that have for told?

That the stars have aligned

Oh dear can we soar up, on the mountain sky

Going after our dreams, flying high

Up to the top, feeling free

It's there, with full clarity

Taking flight, can i be with you for a life-time?

Wealth and fame are apart of your name,

Don't leave me

Don't leave me

Don't leave me..

Don't leave me behind..

The stars have aligned.
