This may sound biased, but... What's the most essential thing for being a writer? Idea? Or Imagination? It's lucid! The answer to it is imagination. While ideas can come and go, however, long-term success in writing comes from the depth and wildness of one’s imagination led by perfect implementation of it, known as writing. Through imagination, one can experience infinite lives, outcomes, victories, and defeats—all intertwined in stories that go beyond mere ideas. In that case, what would an author do if one has the lesser side in terms of imagination, unlike one's renowned writer relative? Read on to discover the winner in the endgame of Memoir! Check it out :-) Nope, I'm serious! #Vote it with power stones or else I'll steal your plushie.

I am an extra. That is an undeniable fact. As a mere extra in a fantasy world filled with sparkling heroes, charming princesses, and mysterious antagonists, my existence is merely to serve as a backdrop for them. But I, Arkan, will not remain silent! Why be satisfied with being ordinary, when I can be extraordinary?

But somehow, my life began to change after I accidentally obtained an Artifact That Extra Characters Should Not Be Able to Have. Now, with a power that invites more trouble than anything else, I struggle to avoid the attention of the main characters... or steal their attention?

For months, the world was ravaged by extreme weather—until everything suddenly stopped. But the silence didn’t last long. In every capital city, a colossal gate materialized.

As the universe spirals into destruction, a great war erupts, shattering the once-peaceful existence. But amidst the chaos, hope arises. A soul is reincarnated into a new world, destined to end the madness. Though reluctant to bear this burden, he is left with no choice. His name is Garret.

I’m not the main character of this world. I’m just a background character—a prop placed here to fill out someone else’s story. I never wanted to get caught up in this world’s rules or its endless fights for survival. There’s no grand destiny pulling me forward, no higher calling pushing me to act. But ever since I was forced into this academy, I’ve had this sinking feeling. That promise I made to myself? The one about staying out of trouble and just surviving? I’m starting to think I won’t be able to keep it.

I mean, it says it in the title, pretty much.

SYNOPSIS In the city of Avalon, manipulation isn't just an art, it's a war. Lucian Vale, the world's most elusive manipulator, orchestrates a crisis designed to cripple economies and outplay his greatest rival, Ariadne Wolfe. But when Magnus Cain, a master strategist who doesn't play by the rules, steps in, the board is flipped before Lucian even realizes the game has changed. As alliances crumble and global power shifts, the world's greatest minds race to stay one move ahead, and survival means outthinking the ones who see everything. CONTENT WARNING This novel focuses on the strategic consequences of manipulation rather than explaining manipulation techniques in a way that could be used practically. It explores mind games, deception, and psychological warfare but does not serve as a manual for manipulation. It aligns with many political thriller and espionage novels, which depict power struggles, intelligence misdirection, and strategic deception without directly teaching harmful tactics. The emphasis is on narrative intrigue, character conflicts, and the cascading effects of manipulation in events rather than step-by-step instructions on manipulation. If the concern is about violating certain cultural sensitivities, the story can be framed as a high-stakes intelligence thriller, similar to many intellectual novels or dramas, without promoting unethical behavior.

*insert interesting summary so that you read it*

With two powerful Alphas as mates, one whose family annihilated her pack and the other a ruthless power monger, Renee Walker must navigate her life battling with revenge, love and lust

She hadn’t expected to be cornered like this, not here, not now. His tall frame loomed over her, blocking any escape as he stood inches from her, pinning her to the wall with his presence alone. His hand rested just above her head, his fingers brushing the cool surface of the locker, creating a barrier that trapped her in place. Her breath caught, her heart thundering in her chest as she realized how little space was left between them. His eyes were dark, full of something she couldn’t decipher but desperately wanted to understand. He stared at her, not saying anything at first, just letting the silence stretch between them. She could feel her pulse race, her face flushing, her body frozen, even though she wanted to push him away. “What are you going to do about it?” he asked, his voice smooth, teasing, and filled with a challenge. There was something in the way he spoke, something that made her stomach twist with a mixture of confusion and excitement. She opened her mouth to say something—anything—but the words wouldn’t come. Her hands hung at her sides, unsure whether to push against his chest or hold herself back. She couldn’t tell if she wanted him to step closer or if she just wanted to run far away from the intensity that radiated from him. “Stop…” she murmured, but the word felt too weak, too powerless against the gravity pulling them together. “What do you want from me?” His lips curled into a small, almost predatory smile. “I want you to stop pretending you don’t feel it,” he said softly, his gaze never leaving hers. His closeness was suffocating, but in the most intoxicating way. The tension between them was palpable, like a storm ready to break. She could feel the heat of his body against hers, could hear the steady rhythm of his breathing as if they were the only two people in the world. She wanted to fight back, wanted to be strong and resist, but something in her—something deep inside—kept her rooted to the spot. He was her classmate, the guy everyone knew, the one with that effortless confidence that made all the girls swoon. And now here he was, making her feel things she wasn’t sure how to deal with. Her hands trembled, caught between pushing him away and giving in to the wild, dizzying pull she felt toward him. She was terrified, but there was also a spark of curiosity, of something she couldn’t quite control. “I’m not… ready for this,” she whispered, though her voice shook with uncertainty. “I don’t even know what you’re doing.” He didn’t answer right away, his gaze softening just enough to let her know that he was listening, that he wasn’t in a rush. He leaned in slightly, his breath brushing against her cheek. “I think you do,” he murmured. “You just don’t want to admit it yet.” Amidst the whirlwind of school friendships, and the pressure. Can anyone dare to be open to the possibility with someone who seems so unreachable?
