Stoneboat Literary Journal

Ibang mundo. Ibang katawan. Dalawang alaala. Sa pagdilat ni Maia, siya ay wala na sa sariling katawan—bagkus, nasa loob ng isang dalagang may dugong maharlika, sa isang mundong pamilyar sa kanyang alaala… ngunit hindi kailanman tunay na sa kanya. Isang mundong tila nabuhay mula sa mga pahina ng isang lumang journal— isang kasaysayang hindi niya inakalang magiging kanya. Ngunit sa kaniyang pagpasok sa katauhan ng isang maharlikang binibini na nakatakdang mamatay, isinumpa ni Maia na babaguhin ang tadhana. Na ililigtas niya ito mula sa trahedyang gumuguhit sa landas nito. Subalit habang lumalalim siya sa bawat alaala at bawat kasinungalingan, unti-unting nawawala ang kaniyang katiyakan. May mga puwang na hindi niya maipaliwanag. May mga lihim na pilit nagpaparamdam. At sa kanyang paghahanap ng mga kasagutan… isang pares ng mata ang lihim ding nakamasid sa kanya—mata ng isang tao na tila matagal nang naghihintay, at handang sirain ang lahat… maging ang puso niyang matagal nang iningatan.

In the seemingly ordinary halls of Northwood High, Sam Gray Stone, a keen observer who finds solace in logic and quiet contemplation, notices Elliona Elfray, a brilliant but shy girl who perceives the world in intricate layers. Their initial connection is a subtle hum in the echoing quiet of the library, a shared glance that hints at unseen depths within their reserved exteriors. Drawn together by an unexpected partnership for an advanced English project, Sam and Elliona begin to navigate not just the complexities of literature, but also the uncharted territories of their own minds. Through hushed conversations in the library, a chance encounter at a stubbornly locked locker, and an unexpected shared appreciation for fantastical realms found in books, a quiet resonance begins to form between them. Their connection deepens beyond academics during a visit to a quirky independent bookstore and a shared afternoon tending a community garden. In each subtle interaction, they discover a kindred spirit in the other – someone who sees beyond the surface, who understands the unspoken language of their quiet souls. As their bond strengthens, they find solace and understanding in each other's presence, a refuge from the often-cacophonous world around them. But as their feelings blossom, they must navigate the delicate balance of their introverted natures and the often-awkward realities of high school life, including the well-meaning but disruptive presence of Sam's boisterous friend, Dickson. Through shared literary passions, quiet moments of vulnerability, and gentle acts of kindness, Sam and Elliona slowly, carefully, begin to acknowledge the profound connection growing between them. "Subtle Resonance" is a story about the quiet power of observation, the beauty of understated connection, and the transformative journey of two introspective souls finding their voice and their heart in the gentle echo of another's understanding. It's a reminder that the deepest connections are often found not in grand gestures, but in the subtle, resonant moments that speak volumes.

“I Reincarnated into a Book I Never Wrote” "This world was never supposed to exist. I never wrote it. And yet… it remembers me." Arin Kael, a young aspiring novelist, dies before his first manuscript is ever completed. But death is not the end. He wakes up in a strange yet familiar world—a story he never published, never wrote down, but only imagined long ago. The landscapes, the characters, the rules of magic… all are born from the scattered fragments of his abandoned ideas. There's only one problem: He’s not the protagonist. He’s not the author. And the villain looks exactly like him. With no memory of finishing this tale, Arin finds himself trapped inside a living book—one that evolves, rewrites itself, and knows his secrets. Joined by Veyra, a heroine who claims she was erased from his forgotten drafts, and Mira, a witch who speaks in quotes from his real-life journals, Arin must navigate a world where characters are self-aware, plots bend like paper, and reality obeys narrative logic. But somewhere in the shadows, someone—or something—is still writing. Who is the true author of this world? Why was Arin brought back to a book he never wrote? And when the final page turns… will he still exist?

Rei, a shy first-year high school student who feels safer behind the lens of his journalism club’s camera, never expected his heart to race just from seeing someone. That someone is Cassian—a third-year student, tall, calm, and admired as the captain of the school’s basketball team. Cold on the outside, but quietly warm when no one’s looking. Unfortunately… Cassian never really seemed to notice Rei at all. From behind his camera, Rei quietly begins to fall—capturing moments of Cassian smiling, exhausted, or simply silent. Until one rainy afternoon, a forgotten umbrella brings them face-to-face. Has Cassian truly never noticed him? Or has he known all along... and just let the feelings hang in the air?

Though set in the 1700's, this world is technologically advanced, especially in the field of warfare. With supernatural abilities and much more, follow Kazuta as he adapts to his new life as a spy in a foreign world, while also achieving cool powers that he thought only existed in fiction!

Every word he writes becomes real. Every lie he tells rewrites the world. When a forbidden journal appears before a fallen soul, reality begins to crumble—one sentence at a time. Cursed by a divine author long erased from history, the journal grants its bearer unimaginable power: the ability to twist fate, rewrite truth, and resurrect memories never lived. But power like this comes with a price—every lie written bleeds a sin into the world, and the journal remembers each one. As hidden gods, ancient scribes, and shattered timelines begin to collide, the boy who was once forgotten becomes the center of a war between creation and corruption. How much of reality is truth... and how much was just written in? --- Dark fantasy, forbidden knowledge, reincarnation, betrayal, and a story that rewrites itself. Add to your Library if you dare to read what was never meant to be written. ---

A Filipino high student from Leyte, named Basilio Valencia died in a landslide but was reincarnated into another world, which is a partial modern and fantasy world with some modern technology. But thanks to an ability called Tech, he still has his phone, journal, and laptop, as well as some pens and journaling equipment. Thus, he can still listen to his favorite songs and watch his favorite shows, anime, and movies from his previous life through his gadgets. Seeing his creature comforts being reincarnated with him, Basilio thought that he would recontinue his partially changed way of life, but his luck ran out when he almost died in a hostile army known as the Vamzom (Vampire-Zombie) Army. That army, which a Demon Sorcerer cursed and transformed to be blood-thirsty creatures that are more like a hybrid of both vampires and zombies, was killing humans and other races that had blood with combat helicopters, pistols, and swords for their blood. But then, the army regained their humanity partially when they realized what they had done to him and the other humans and races. So, they regretted their actions and worked hard to save him. But, while Basilio was in a coma, their leader, Ruslan Makesa, driven by guilt, took his own life by stabbing himself with his Blood Sword, before placing his powers as a Vamzom in a box; he intended to pass that and his leadership to the Basilio once he survive and wake up from his coma. And so, after Basilio had survived and woken up from his 2-month-long coma, the army apologized to Basilio and asked him to lead them, promising to be good to all races. Basilio was shocked but he forgave them, taking Ruslan's leadership with his own morals and ideals. So, after that, Basilio built a country with the Vamzom race that is civilized and friendly with his cultural traits and morals as a Filipino in his previous life, as well as modeling the new nation, known as the Ruslav Nation, after the Philippine republic. But Basilio discovered that there is a race called Otherworlders, which he was a part of, and took this as an opportunity to make alliances with them. But will Basilio adapt to this new life in a strange world? Warning: The photo used for the book cover is NOT mine! Credits go to the original owner!

They called him the “Silent Tactician” long before the blood dried on the banners. Before the journal was found. Before history remembered the cost. At the heart of an elite academy where talent alone isn't enough, Nitsuo stands not with power or prestige—but with silence, strategy, and an unreadable gaze. To most, he’s just a quiet second-year. To a few, he is the mind behind impossible victories. Behind his team’s laughter, behind the storm of noble politics and magical duels, he records everything—in a worn leather journal that one day will be all that remains. Each student here dreams of glory. Each battle is more than a test; it’s a war for identity. Magic is studied like warcraft. Words are weapons. Feelings are hidden behind masks, until a single moment—a mistake, a duel, a glance too long—cracks them wide open. But Nitsuo didn’t come here to win. He came to carry a promise. And while his comrades clash and grow, while quiet rivalries bloom into unspoken feelings and accidental flirts stir the hearts of more than one, a war far beyond the school walls brews in the dark. Because legends aren't born—they’re remembered. And The Silent Tactician doesn’t speak to be heard. He writes so his story won't be lost.

Just random things that I can think of. Journal, stories and just anything.

At exactly 3:03 a.m., a phone rings in a quiet Mumbai apartment. No one speaks. And yet the silence says everything. When a solitary translator begins receiving mysterious signals - glass that breathes, vinyl records that hold no sound, clocks that refuse to tell time - he’s drawn into a hidden layer of the city, where sound is memory and silence is truth. As lost love resurfaces through frequencies no human should hear, he must confront the possibility that his life is not entirely his own - that parts of it were erased, and others rewritten by something… listening. The Frequency of Silence is a haunting and lyrical literary mystery, weaving surrealism, romance, and metaphysical dread into a journey through forgotten time and parallel selves. Set in the dream-shadowed backstreets of Mumbai, this is a story about remembering what you once chose to forget.

Each step unlocks a doorway to a deeper rite. And each whisper comes from something… beyond reality.

The title pretty much says it all. This is the journal of Jane Brown. Each journal entry may be very short or very long. Entries may be close together or far apart. It depends on when and if Jane decides to or remembers to update her journal. If ever. Just like most of the non-diary or journal writer keepers out there - or uninspired authors. Yep. Warning: VERY SLOOOW updates. This is a story written on a whim. Let's see how long the inspiration will last for. This style of writing is somewhat experimental. Disclaimer: This is a work of FICTION and is not based on any one person. Any portrayal of real people or real events (excluding some major world events) is entirely accidental and coincidental. It is in not in any way, shape of form meant to be a commentary on anyone or anything, even less on current issues in society. This is literally meant to be boring (hence the ordinary title) without being too boring. It is just about (and meant to be about) the average slow paced life and interests of an average person. The aim is to keep this for general audiences and not go down the romance route, so that my little nieces and nephews can read this as an example of how to write rubbish - uh, I mean fiction. Unfortunately, my imagination and brain keep running away with the plot and taking it down the adult fiction route... So, sorry, my little nieces and nephews. You won't be reading this version of the story. No way. Your parents might decide to silence me and then you would no longer have a fun aunty to teach you useless knowledge.
