This book is a collection of stories that came to life in my mind—some inspired by real adventures from vacations with family and friends, others born from dreams that jolted me awake in the middle of the night, and some purely imagined from my fascination with monsters on distant planets. Inside, you’ll find tales of aliens, eerie dreams, and sights I’ve seen—or wished I could see. Along the way, I’ve also attempted a few poems, exploring emotions and ideas in a different form. I hope you enjoy this sneak peek into My Little Universe and have as much fun reading it as I had creating it.
