Origin Story

An escape built by someone who needed one.

"

I'm 22. Software engineer in AI/ML. Already fed up with the grind.

I needed somewhere to escape. I love stories and I love building websites — so I combined them into this.

Stories deserve better than this

Buried in Google Docs

Lost in social feeds

Fighting algorithms

A calm, focused home ✓

What I'm building here

A place where short stories can breathe. Where writers can publish without pressure. Where readers can discover new worlds in minutes, not hours.

No engagement metrics. No viral chasing. No algorithmic feed.

Just stories that matter, given the attention they deserve.

Core Principles

Focus

Short stories. No endless scroll.

Calm

A quiet home. Not a noisy feed.

Freedom

Try. Change. Experiment.

Respect

Your time. Your voice.

Built for two kinds of people

For writers

Your low-pressure stage

Publish drafts, experiments, polished pieces. No algorithms to fight. No engagement anxiety. Just your stories, your way.

Start writing

For readers

Worlds in minutes

Fantasy, sci-fi, romance, horror. Bite-sized stories perfect for quick escapes. No commitment. Just curiosity.

The Journey

This is still early

I'm learning. Tweaking. Shipping in small steps.

If you're here this early,
you're part of the story too.

Thank you for reading, writing, or just quietly lurking.
