Will Fall is a young adult with a passion for writing. He writes short stories, story series, poems, scripts, and novels, always having at least four ideas bouncing around in his head, or by his analogy, “I always have eighty tabs open in my head, only one of those tabs is reality. As a result, I’m a bit spacy most of the time. ” Still working on finding his voice, Will is always working to improve his writing.

There’s a Voice Within My Head
This is by far the darkest of the three recently posted poems, ending on a bitter note instead of a positive one and covering a much darker topic than growing up. I feel it fitting to assure you that this is not my current mental state but is instead the result of the way things were for me a little while ago. Please Enjoy

My Eyes Once Shone Like Stars
As I have stated in a previous post, Poetry needs a particular mindset for me, and as a result, most of my poems have a darker or sadder undertone. This poem is a lament of lost innocence that a child goes through as they become old enough to recognize the world’s problems. Again, as in my last post, this is not my current mental state but rather the result of a wave of emotions I experienced a while ago. Right now, I am in a good place mentally.
Poetry is not my strong suit. I can only write it when I’m in a certain mood, and as a result, all of my poetry takes a much darker tone with more focus on mentality than my other works. I want to pause here to assure my readers that this poem was written a few years ago, and even when I was writing it, I had moved past the point in my life when I was feeling this way, so this poem is not reflective of my current mental state in any way. Now it’s just an interesting poem I wrote.
Enjoy!

Endings and Beginnings
This is a final paper that I wrote for one of my classes, the prompt being “Imagine you are at the end of your life, how would you look back at your life, what would be some things that you remember fondly?”
Since it’s the first original creative piece that I’ve written in months, I decided to post it here as well. Enjoy!
Taulaga users are on the rise, and Idemoni attacks are becoming more frequent. Familiar Ingrid warns that a more sinister force could be at play, as it has been in the past. The Creator and Guardians set to work to try and draw connections between the encounters. Is there a sinister force underlying the uptick? And if so, how will the Guardians stop it?
A Guardian Patrol goes wrong as Esmun runs into a conflict no Achanian should face. A woman finds her brother preforming a strength sacrafice on a Taulaga Artifact. As the man loses his mind to the magic, Esmun has to keep him occupied to protect the other citizens. A Guardian should be able to handle a Human Taulaga user with ease, why is it taking him so long to beat this Idemoni?

Whisk You Away in the Moonlight
This piece is called “Whisk You Away in the Moonlight” Both the art piece and the story that goes with it are inspired by the poem “The Highwayman” by Alfred Noyes. The story tells of a Highwayman’s nighttime meeting with a princess and their ride in the moon’s light.
