Young Shadow by Ben Sears
Sometimes a creator’s different instincts and plans don’t always play nice with each other.

Room for Love by Ilya
This is a story about two people and about love. No, not that kind of story. One of the people writes that kind of story, though. Pamela Green is a romance novelist, reasonably successful writing as Leonie Hart, with a fan club and what seems to be solid but unspectacular sales. But she’s in a…
