Title: Teeth Author: CementFeatheredBird Type: Original Fiction Genre: Thriller Rating: PG Small teeth, big teeth; I just want your teeth. When I was younger, I remember that a lot of my friends were afraid to go to the dentist. They would moan and complain whenever we had to go for our regular dental checkups in school. I thought it only happened during my primary school years, but I was wrong. Apparently, secondary school students feared the dentist as well. I couldn't understand why the dentist was much feared by children and teenagers alike, because I wasn't one to fall under that category. In fact, I was the complete opposite: I like being in the dentist's chair to have my teeth checked and polished. Teeth tells a story about a dentist who has an obsession with, well, teeth. He tends to pull out his patient's teeth without any purpose but to steal them. His patients are unaware of what he is doing but let him be since he's after all, a dentist. But there's a deep, dark secret as to why the dentist does that: he collects various sizes of teeth from his patients to make sets of dentures. However, those dentures are not for sale or for his other patients to use; those dentures are made for himself. When I came upon this story, I was pretty intrigued by the style of writing. CementFeatheredBird has writtenTeeth in a narrative voice and readers will definitely have a feel of reading a bedtime story to their younger siblings. Besides that, this story has a twisted sense of humor and I felt that the writer has done a good job in mixing both childlike fantasy with dark, chilling moments together. A short one-shot with seven hundred and fourteen words, Teeth is recommended for those who love reading Tim Burton's Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and Other Stories. Bittersweet at its best. Special thanks goes out to everybody dies; and Answering.Alexandra. for the edits.

Meet a hard working reviewer that could pop by your stories and give them a review at any time. When did you start on the Mibba staff?  "I started just 3 months ago, specifically last November. I really couldn’t believe it was just 3 months, it felt like I joined the mag years ago."  How do you balance real life and Mibba life?  "The word “balance” for me is a wrong term when it comes to real life and Mibba life. I don’t balance; it’s more like ‘trying to balance’. As much as I’d like to say that I have a strategy or something, I can’t. Because the only thing that I do is to start doing my homework once I arrive at home- yes that’s my brilliant strategy. But sometimes, when temptation hits me hard, I give in; when I come home, I turn on my laptop and visit this site to check for updates."  Why did you choose the position you currently hold?  "Easy, I did it because I wanted to read a lot of stories. As a reviewer, you’re required to read stories or poems in order to [write] a review. There’s even a bonus when it comes to being a reviewer; you make the author happy, knowing that someone does appreciate his/ her own work."  If you could have any other position on Mibba, what would it be and why?  "I was planning on becoming a blog moderator before the end of the year (if there was going to be another staff sign-up). I’d like this position because I get to read blogs and make them as well."  Who/ what do you find as an inspiration?  "There are 3 things that keep me inspired, megurine luka (a story editor), God, nature and movies (yes, the sad and very romantic ones). It’s probably because of them that I strive to become a better person and writer."  Where do you envision yourself in a few years’ time?  "I’d probably be a writer in my school’s yearbook. As for what I’m going to take up in college, I’m really not sure. Sad, isn’t it? But I have hope, maybe I’ll figure out what I’m going to take up when I’m 15."  What do you imagine other Mibbians are like?  "Mibbians are brilliant. Whenever I read their work, I feel as if they’ve put their whole life into what they’re doing. I’m like an underdog, I’m not much of importance because I know that I’m not that good. When I just think of Mibbians, I feel like I have to do better and strive harder."  What is it like in your immediate surroundings?  "Most of the walls are made of wood, not cement. My floor is made of wood and my computer table is somehow made of wood. A bed is just beside it, so when I finish late either because of homework or Mibba, I just face my side, see the bed and immediately lie down so I can fall asleep."  Place you want to visit?  "I’ve never been outside my hometown, Quezon City, with my family. Sure, I go out during school trips but not with my family. Hopefully, we’d go to Ilocos or Bicol this summer."  Thank you so much for answering these questions, a mimosa pudica and letting Mibba know who you are! Thank you so much to everybody dies; and Fandango for editing.

Growing up in slums of Pampanga, John Wigley was a child born with the natural talent of storytelling. The author grew up to be openly (and proudly) gay in his community. Not only was Wigley gay, an enigma in his community, it is revealed that he is illegitimate, a representation of the children who were born to American fathers and Filipina mothers. However, this did not stop him from earning a PhD in Literature; it was his determination and confidence that led him to make his mark on the big city of Manila and teach for 15 years at the University of Santo Tomas. Falling Into The Manhole is a anthology of short stories narrated by the author himself. Wigley wrote his experiences in a diary long before they were published and public to his students (and fellow Filipinos). The vibrant tone of the narration serves as a remedy for the losses he experienced in the dog-eat-dog nature of his country. “You need to get out of this stereotypical box and learn to articulate yourself. If you remain silent, somebody else will speak for you. If you remain afraid forever, you will be doing a great injustice to yourself.”  Wigley’s memoir is not a self-centered jargon that lists down the achievements of the author. Rather, it holds all the values one must gather in order to make it in the big world. His memoir will not just bring the reader to tears but to laughter as well. Wigley assures his readers that his life is not the worst case you could ever read about –there are other people who have experienced harder struggles in life.

Pretty Girls is an excellent original fiction, written by grow a pair. This amazing story is filled with love and friendship, with an incredible road trip to tie everything together. In this week's Featured Story, we get a closer look at Pretty Girls from the author herself! Give us a brief summary of Pretty Girls. Pretty Girls is about three best friends embarking on a good ol’ road trip, sort of as their last hurrah before they split ways for college. What inspired you to write Pretty Girls? I found this quote on tumblr, "The prettiest smiles hide the deepest secrets. The prettiest eyes have cried the most tears. And the kindest hearts have felt the most pain” and was pretty much inspired from that. I’ve always been interested in writing a road trip story – and had written one before but I hadn’t committed to it. From there, it took some story thinking during shower time (does anyone else do that, think up story ideas in the shower?) and my characters were born. How long have you been working on Pretty Girls? Since the beginning of February, I didn’t really make a plan, of sorts, before I posted it. It was done on a whim since I find that when I do completely plan out a story, I get bored easily. So all together, I guess a month and a half? On average, how much time do you spend writing it each week? I really should be spending more time on it, since my uni schedule is pretty scarce compared to others, but I probably spend an hour a week-ish to write a whole chapter. If I’m feeling the inspiration, I’ll write but if I’m not, I’m not going to force it. How did you choose the title for this story? It came from the tumblr quote which I use as the summary, but I plan to work the title eventually into the story so that it actually makes sense to why I’ve named it. What is your favorite thing about writing this story? Each chapter is a different point of view, so I enjoy exploring each character and fleshing out their personalities. Sara, for instance, is Australian, and so am I, so I’ve kind of made Sara as what I think embodies an Australian – a chill, relaxed kind of girl, doesn’t take life too seriously kind of thing. What is the most challenging thing about writing it? The most challenging thing I’d have to say is making sure that each character has a different view of life from the other. In the past, I’ve made characters sound the same but I’ve been working on differentiating each person so the readers can get a clear idea of who each girl is. Another thing, it isn’t challenging as such but it takes some time, which is finding a title for each chapter. I have to make sure it fits in with the story as well as the mood. Have you ever experienced writer's block with Pretty Girls? If so, how did you overcome it? I am currently in writer’s block as I haven’t updated in like, two weeks, but I plan to overcome it by listening to Ed Sheeran on repeat, reading back through my old chapters and feel that inspiration I first got when I wrote this story. I like to read through story comments as well to see what I can improve on and what the readers like, so I can focus on those areas. Do you write with an outline, or just wing it? I’m a professional winger, so it would seem out of character for me to write an outline. Haha no, I have a very loose outline of what I want to happen, but I tend to just wing it. Sometimes I do make chapter outlines, only to realise that by the end of the chapter, I have strayed away from the outline and written something completely different. Do you have any pre/post writing rituals? Before I write, I have to make sure there aren’t any distractions – as in, I’ve checked all of my Mibba alerts/subscriptions/etc, there’s no one on FB for me to talk to, I’ve watched all youtube videos I’m subscribed to and I’ve temporarily become bored with tumblr. Then I set up some music and I’m ready to go. Is there anything you would like to say to your readers? Despite my infrequent updates, I just want to say that I am committed to this and I have every intention of finishing Pretty Girls! As a side note, I also have a spinoff planned and I can’t write that until this is finished, so I will be sticking to this no matter what. Lastly, thank you to everyone who subscribes/recommends/comments, you’re all freaking awesome. Special thanks to tabula rasa. and Answering.Alexandra. for editing!

The flow of the poem is wonderful and it really entices you and you can't stop reading. The poem truly takes you on a journey in which you are both mesmerized yet trapped by the wonders and hardships of creating a poem.

Title: Salem Falls Author: Katie Mosing | harry styles. | Carpe Diem ! | blades. | little sparrow. Genre: Romance | Adventure | Fantasy Length: Chaptered Type: Fan Fiction Rating: R Like his father before him, overnight, he had been given a responsibility he wasn’t entirely sure he was ready for. All his life, he had been told that he would be the heir to the Sixth Circle thrown, but he never thought it would happen so soon. He was too young to run the coven, and his father had only taught him half of what he needed to know.  Salem Falls is a simple town filled with simple people. The adults go to work, the children go to school and everyone goes about their day as a normal person would. But there is one thing all of these people don’t know. Salem Falls has a secret that is so big it could change the town forever, but the people are determined to keep it hidden. Long ago, when things in Salem Falls first changed, the people came to an agreement that the secret was never to be spoken of again, so it wasn’t. Generations later, Salem Falls became a simple town, with the only people knowing what once was being the ones who are still involved in it. But secrets don’t stay secret for long and with the war raging on between the people, this one is bound to break free. Salem Falls is a story that is sure to please any One Direction fan. The brilliant mix of romance and mystery makes it extremely interesting to read. From the first moment we are introduced to the boys, we are met with tragedy unlike any other, and if that’s not good enough, steamy drama soon follows. The underlying theme of the story is romance, which the authors are known for, but the story contains so much more. Salem Falls is shaping up to be an excellent story, and with five of my favorite authors on board, I am looking forward to seeing what is to come!

Title: The Fisherman’s Daughter Author: pyretta blaze. Rating: PG-13 Type: Original Fiction Genre: Romance l Drama l Tragedy It is very rare for people to say that the life and job of a fisherman is difficult. Most people find it something to not worry about when the task is to only look for fish. The gruelling journey of looking for fish in sea is as much daring as those men being sent in the army. Somehow, the only people who could ever grasp that concept are the people dear to those fishermen and that is none other but their families. The Hansen family is like any other family; they have spent years of hard-work and labor into fishing. Arttu Hansen is the most respected and honored fisherman in the sea. The Sea Siren is the boat that he currently uses which was handed down to him by his father. Other than being a fisherman, he is also the father of three children, namely, Mathias, Emil and Thea. Among them, Thea is the only daughter that discourages what the family does for a living. The thought of seeing her father set sail into the Bering Sea breaks her own heart knowing that he might not come back. Therefore she vowed never to fall in love with a boy who would end up like him, just like her mother marrying Arttu. The Fisherman’s Daughter is a gripping and heart-breaking tale of a young girl trying to break free from the fate that awaits her. I was awestruck by pyretta blaze.’s choice of words to describe the life of a fisherman’s daughter. Each chapter is filled with deep and poetic lines that will truly capture your attention. Don’t miss this out on this story, it is gorgeously written and I am sure readers would agree as well. Thank you to Airi. and tui.angel for the edits!

With all of the unique, wonderful pieces that add up to the puzzle that is Wasteland, there is sure to be something that will interest everyone!

Snowed In is an excellent One Direction fan fiction, in which the boys of the British band deal with disaster, drama, and of course, romance. The story has an excellent mixture of action and romance, but focuses more on the romance aspect of the story, which I cannot get enough of. The situations occurring between all the different characters are enough to have anyone hooked and will leave readers dying to know what happens next. Whether you are a fan of dramatic affairs or adorable fluff, Snowed In has a romance that will interest you!

Almost everyone has a creature they are terrified of, regardless of whether that creature is the boogeyman or a vampire. Luckily for us, the only times those creatures can hurt us is in our sleep. In Fragile Things, those horrifying creatures come to life. They are no longer bumps in the night. They don't just terrify the world; they run it. In this week's Featured Story, we learn more about the story from the author herself, silk tea. Give us a brief summary of Fragile Things. Fragile Things is about the end of the world. Instead of the world blowing up or zombies taking over the sun dies out and all the monsters from storybooks come out to play. So every vampire, boogey man, werewolf, etc. now run the earth and humans are quarantined. They believe they’re safe behind the government but in actuality the government has been corrupted. A doctor who had been trying to create a machine to provide the vitamins needed by the sun was mutated in an experiment gone wrong and is now quarantining these humans not as protection for them but so that they may be slaughtered and experimented on by his own nefarious purposes. The story centers around Annabelle Forrester and the little town she is quarantined in. Her world is as normal as it can be until she brings a stranger into the wards of her home and risks everything in order to find out the truth about him, the mysterious death of her best friend and herself. dun, dun duuuuun. What inspired you to write this story? My dreams. Almost everything I write is either inspired by a dream or a photo or a song. I really adore writing post-apocalyptic, dystopian type things and before this I was writing a story called Building Humans which was basically about what the world would be like if there were vampires and no humans. I kind of brain-farted that one and then started with this instead. I had a dream where I was living in a cage and there were a bunch of monsters trying to get in at me and throughout the entire dream I never saw the light. Then out of the darkness came the face of a man with indigo eyes and he offered to save me. But something was very off with this man, he didn’t exactly seem trustworthy but everything about me was telling me to trust him if it meant my freedom. Then I woke up and I was like BAM, story idea. How long have you been working on Fragile Things? For two years. I started it on January 19th of 2011 and I feel like I’m nowhere near finished with it, which sucks. First it started out in first person and then I realized that I could add so much more in third person so I’ve been going through each and every chapter and changing all 288 pages from first to third and from present to past and then adding in more detail. On average, how much time do you spend writing this story each week? I wish I spent more time on it. I feel like I like to spend at least a couple hours a day on it. But I’m not exactly writing anything new for it at this point. I’m more along the lines of editing and making sure what I have up to this point is in the write perspective and tense and making sure everything makes sense. One of these days though it’ll be complete hah. What is your favorite thing about writing Fragile Things? Creating my own world. You read stories like The Host or like Harry Potter, The Mortal Instruments, etc and these authors have created these entire worlds based on nothing and I love being able to do that. It may not be a world that anyone would want to live in but it’s still so much fun to create something that’s entirely my own. [aside, of course, from like…the vampires and stuff but whatever.] What is the most challenging thing about writing it? Making it realistic. Yes, it’s a fantasy. But there always has to be some realism to fantasy. It’s very hard making a world without a sun livable and then making the whole basis that the plot is around seem correct? I want to say. Continuity is always my biggest issue, which is why it takes me so long to write anything I always have to go back and make sure that I stayed true to my characters or to my plot line and that everything seems right. Have you ever experienced writer's block with Fragile Things? If so, how did you overcome it? Oh dear lord yes. I get stuck so often with the story it’s awful. But I’m determined to finish it. The first time was I plotted everything out. I bought this little journal and just started writing in it, not anything new just what I already know about Annabelle and Noah, etc. I wrote kind of character biographies about each of my characters and then wrote the outline of the plot for it and by the end I had an entire story outline and knew where to go from there. The second time I decided to change the POV. I just feel that third person is a lot easier to write in than first, not to mention you can add so much more with it. Do you write with an outline, or just wing it? Well, like I said in the previous answer, I originally just kind of wing it. Hope that my memory of the dream that this story is based on will stay and that I can create an entire storyline around that. But after I got epic writer’s block I wrote an entire outline and that actually helps a lot. I’m trying to make sure I do that with all my stories from now on. Do you have any pre/post writing rituals? No, not necessarily… does writing only at three in the morning count? Is there anything you would like to say to your readers? You guys are pure brilliance. I honestly think that if I hadn’t gotten your support this story would be in the bin of ‘never to be finished’ stories that I have. So seriously, you’re amazing and I love all of you. Being featured in this magazine is seriously amazing, I’m so happy about it. Special thanks to harry styles. and everybody dies; for editing!
