Once Within a Dream by S.L. Kassidy
$7.50
Samar Habeen is a warrior waging two wars—one against the Nightmares that prowl the forsaken streets of Oganja, and another within the silent chambers of her own heart. Grief clings to her like a second skin as she fights to stay afloat in a city that doesn’t care about her. The loss of her mother and homeland have hollowed her, leaving her yearning for the warmth of family—though what remains of hers feels fractured, distant, almost spectral. Instead, she finds a strange solace in a building housing a tomb, a monument reflecting all she’s lost. And when she stops visiting, her absence awakens the sleeping soul, who sets out to find her.

I was bred, born, and raised in New York and I have no desire to live anywhere else. One day, I would like to travel, but for now, I am content where I am.
I started out writing poetry in junior high. I wrote short stories throughout high school and college. In between writing, I managed to get a college degree in history.
I had fun with fan fiction and decided to try my hand in original fiction. I plan to continue writing as long as I continue getting ideas for stories and it continues to be fun.
