Away From Home Chapter 2
A/N: Harry Potter fic. Contains scenes of abuse. This story does not follow the books' story-line much, if at all. I'm sorry for the short chapters; I hope to start making them longer once I can get into the groove and get a big plot going. Bear with me. Dark circles had long formed underneath the dulled, glossy turquoise eyes of the young boy. He slowly, painfully, sits up in his creaky bed, hearing the springs snap and strain beneath him. A low rasp of a whimper escapes from the back of his throat. Head pounding, Harry attempts to stand. Instead, he only succeeds in stumbling backwards before falling painfully onto his bed again.The welt...

Away From Home - Chapter One. (Harry Potter Fanfiction)
Read Artist Comments for Story Description. Warning; contains abuse. Nothing sexual, though. Harsh, ragged breaths escape from pale, chapped lips. Almost over. This forsaken summer was almost over, and the young wizard could escape this Hell-hole that was supposed to be his 'house'. The white, dusty walls of the cupboard in which he resides seem to drive him insane, and his bony hands tremble. How many more days? He wasn't sure. The Dursleys had left him locked in there while they were out on vacation, left with only a few slices of bread and half of a glass of water. That meal was s...
I have created a new poetry group and I am looking for new members. Is anyone interested? This group has no strict rules, just have fun and keep it clean.
Apologies - I just now submitted my poem, "Kitchen Blues" to the wrong folder by accident!
It's currently in the flash fiction folder and I'm not able to get it out. Can one of the staff or admins delete it for me please? Otherwise, I meant to put it in the Lyrics folder.
If you really wish to receive comments and feedback, I suggest looking at I came across the group earlier today and gave it a shot. I already received one very useful comment and will probably get more
(and I'm not telling you this as if you wont get any here, just that if you specifically want that, to check that group out )
Ahoy guys, I'm a new writer here and I was wondering if I could have some feedback on my writing! I would really appreciate it, I'm looking for anything that will help me grow and become a better author!
