Dani Tamari's life is ordinary enough. But when she makes a simple decision - to skip school so she can go bird watching - things begin to change. New people, secrets, accidents, and mysteries arrive and change her life forever.

The so-called David Cross doesn't regret killing his abusive father. Instead, he's happy he rid the world of such a man. But the authorities on Vampiru, his home planet, don't see it that way, and now he's on the run. He chooses Earth to hide, and lands in Enniskillen, but there are some surprises waiting for him. Unpleasant ones.

Dani and David find their lives a mess as their worlds collide, with disastrous consequences. Dani doesn't know what she's getting into, and she wouldn't want anything to do with it if she did. But she's in too deep, she knows too much, and there's no way out.

The Boy Who Lost His Sight

Ellie Burke is just this simple town girl, who will never look at the wrong way about anyone. Moving to Florida means everything to her — she could turn over a new leaf, start a new life, and get the chance to actually be someone —and not just this useless nerdy girl.

The boy who lost his sight. 

She's going to fight  for what her heart wants every step of the way. This is Ellie's story, and it's going to be one bumpy, complicated romance that's nothing like the fairy tales say. A story of hope, trust and what true love really means.

Interview

1. Please tell the readers a bit about yourself.

My name's Bella. I'm eighteen so right now I'm studying in a local university here, in Malaysia. I love reading and writing and I have the soft spot for pink.

2. What types of books do you write?

Well, for now, I have only written teen fiction and romance books. Although, I think my real interests are actually fantasy or sci-fi with a little mix of romance. I wish I have the capability to write in those two genres, though. 

3. How many books have you written?

There are two completed ones and 1243858506845849 uncompleted stories in my head, my notebook, my laptop and my sticky notes. 

4. What movie and/or book are you looking forward to this year?

In 2013, I really, really can't wait for Catching Fire to be out. The trailer looks incredibly promising. While for the year 2014, I can't wait for Divergent! Also, I'm excited to read Allegiant! 

5. What type of books do you enjoy reading?

Fantasy with a little mix of romance. I love a story which has a strong female character, like, Tris from Divergent or even, Clary from TMI series. They're literally perfect and the authors of the books are incredibly talented. I also read some of the books written by Sarah Dessen (Along for the Ride) and John Green (The Fault in Our Stars). Those two are the queen and the king of Teen Fiction. Serious talk. 

6. If you were stranded on a desert island what 3 things would you want with you?

1. My laptop.

2. A fridge which has unlimited food.

3. And Max Irons. 

7. Are you considering a sequel?

Not at all. I think a sequel would spoil the whole story. 

8. What inspired you to become a writer?

A local Malaysian artist named Yuna. She's a Malaysian but she writes and sings her songs in the English language. Now, she's been signed to an international label record and her songs are played all over the world. I think her achievement is really inspiring. She's proven to me that nothing is impossible if you have the will to succeed.

Interview

1. Please tell the readers a bit about yourself.

Hi, call me Rose. I am in first year of college, I have a great passion for dancing. I love football, painting and hanging out with my friends. 

2. What types of books do you write?

I have about 20 story ideas ready, all are YA Romance, mostly contemporary and suspenseful. I love the books where hero finally woes his heroine and those having realistic points. I am currently also starting a Fantasy [Magical] story, let's see where it gets.

3. How many books have you written?

On Wattpad, only one is on-going 'Taken By Destiny' and a collection of short love stories 'Laugh With Me, Cry With Her.' And I am focusing on them, as I usually focus on one story at a time. However, in future, many more are to come, since I have plots and all ready.

4. What movie and/or book are you looking forward to this year?

I just watched 'Hunger Games- Catching Fire', it was just awesome. But now, I am looking forward to a Hindi movie, 'Dhoom 3' and book by Ruthie Knox- 'Deeper'.

5. What type of books do you enjoy reading?

I enjoy reading Mysteries, I am die-hard fan of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and Nancy Drew. But, I also crave for romances where hero and heroine have to face all the difficulties of the world for coming together. Because when they do, that feeling is so satisfying. But give me any book, I would read it, as I simply love reading.

6. If you were stranded on a desert island what three things would you want with you?

Um, 1. Chocolates, like loads of it.

2. My laptop, can't leave it alone.

3. And a two room small Beach House.

7. Are you considering a sequel?

 Nope, the entire story finishes in Book one and I don't want to lengthen it unnecessarily. 

8. What inspired you to become a writer?

Um, by birth I had that annoying trait of day dreaming. I was always making short stories of them, because if I don't write them down, the voices in my head give me headache. And Wattpad gave me platform to share my stories.

Excerpt

He gently plucked one and taking her hands in his, he kept one there. Even then, though only 2 years older than her, he was already a gentleman.

“Until next time, Mon amie.”

As he walked away her heart had fluttered and a glowing sweet liquid had pooled in it. She remembered his words as she remembered him. He had called her ‘his friend’ and that was the end of her.

Or rather, we should say a new beginning of an epic era had started. An era filled with love, pain, heartbreak, jealousy, hatred and anger. From that day she had started writing their story—their story which was going to be recalled in incessant generations. It was going to be no common story for people.
In her mind, he had already been vowed to her and her love had taken a new path. Tentacles of sensation, wonder and awe for him had ripened in her heart. From that day, from that moment forth, his soul had become hers.

And years may pass, people may die, gut-wrenching cries may be heard, she wouldn’t care. She would make sure it remained like that.

As she glanced at her rotting corpse, she couldn’t help but relive her last moments. She was absorbed in loving him that she couldn’t foresee her own destruction. She had never predicted that his demons would come after her too. For the girl who was in love with him, she was foolish and childish.

But she just couldn’t help it, and so she started paving her way in his heart—paving it by clutching it hard until it became trash. The last look he had given her had extinguished the fire within her soul, making it light and irreparable. She had died that day with everything she had.

From the second she died, she loathed him. Even in black waters where she had lost herself, she couldn’t forget the pain of her death, of her last breath. They said that death is peaceful, that death is our last memory, but they never said it was immortal. They had never told that it stays with us with our sin and our virtue. She was never told that it haunts us, even in heaven and in hell.

In a matter of minutes, she was gone from the world, only to be born with more strength, with a strong retribution. She floated in shadows, she craved for the dark, she swallowed his weakness, and she attacked. This time, her attack was brutal and with a sheer excitement passing through her, she had dragged his heart down with her. Her laugh had been downright cruel as she watched his destruction.

A shrouded past, laced with hateful lust and concealed loss can only be uncovered through the desperate recollections of Tabby Twill. Despondent in her denial against what truly lies within her,Tabby seldom considers being anyone else.

Interview

1. Please tell the readers a bit about yourself.

Well, I'm currently living in England and I'm in my fourth year of secondary school. I really enjoy reading, listening to music, skateboarding and writing! (duh).

2. What types of books do you write?

Usually sad one, happy is not my type ;0 But more genre wise, I tend to go for mystery/thriller with occasional bit of horror. I'm not incapable of happy books, they're just so boring to write!

3. How many books have you written?

In total, probably around seven, but only a select 3 ideas have made it to Wattpad. I'm pretty specific about the work I allow people to see!

4. What movie and/or book are you looking forward to this year?

HUNGER GAMES CATCHING FIRE! That's right, I'm a hungergamer ;) I fell in love with the book a few months before I saw the first book and I've re-read them again in time for the new film.

5. What type of books do you enjoy reading?

Usually rather dark novels, something with a twist, yet nothing that's overdone or overrated. I really enjoy Michelle Paver's works.

6. If you were stranded on a desert island what 3 things would you want with you?

1. Ice tea

2. YO!Sushi bar and...

3. Can I say five star hotel?

7. Are you considering a sequel?

I don't think my book 'The Morbid Materials' will have a direct sequel, mainly because I haven't finished it yet, it's hard to tell where it will go. I like the idea of writing a different book about the same characters under other names, sort of like a secret sequel?

8. What inspired you to become a writer?

Ever since I was younger, I've loved to read, my passion for writing really stemmed from that. I've always done well in English at school and I find writing is a great way to escape into a different world, usually one I prefer...
