This is a story about a couple, Niki and Yura, who are ready to embark on a new phase of their adult lives.
But an old acquaintance returns to their lives and puts them to the test. ... more>>

Who am I?
What does it mean to love?
Why do we live?

Shit happens, but that's life!

P.S. Nice to meet you, my name is Bogdan and I am the author of the screenplay you can read below. Before you proceed to familiarize yourself with my work, I would like to share some details.
This is not the light novel you're accustomed to seeing here. This is the screenplay for a visual novel that I, along with my friends, wrote for the Ukrainian Visual Novel Jam. Below is a link to our game. Unfortunately, there is no English version available yet, but we will add one soon.
This story about Nika and Yuri is very important to me because I wrote it after breaking up with my girlfriend, and to be honest, I was shattered. At that moment, it seemed easier to die than to continue living. Overall, everything was fine for me until then, but after the breakup, I found myself for the first time standing in front of the mirror, thinking that there was no real purpose in continuing to live.

But thanks to my friends and the writing of this story, I managed to pull myself back. Perhaps my state wasn't as dire as I thought, but the support of close people and engaging in creative work helped me see a distant glimmer of hope in life.

Initially, we thought that everything would end with the jam, but after it ended, I decided that I wanted to make more out of this story. I didn't just want to tell the story of one couple, but I wanted to try to help people who are also going through a breakup and don't know what to do next. <<less

Sakashima’s economy and everyone’s quality of life are in peril!... more>>

Everyone is blissfully ignorant except Central Bank Chairman Matsuda and those in the highest echelons of government. When the crap hits the fan and the truth can no longer be denied, the Sakashiman people will want answers… and the blood of those responsible!

Fortunately there is a solution. UN-fortunately the only man alive who can help is a broken shell of his former self; a man destroyed in the past by none other than Chairman Matsuda.

Can this man find the strength to let bygones be bygones and lend his aid? What could Matsuda offer our hero in return for his assistance? Can a high-functioning sociopath like Matsuda even be trusted to deliver on his promises?

Find out in… A Palace of Sea Urchins.

This is a short five chapter 'macroeconomic thriller' with the option of being further extended.

If you enjoy white-collar crime movies like 'The Wolf of Wall Street' or 'The Big Short', give this one a gander!

Also, please consider leaving comments or even a review; so I know what to do more of (...or stop doing). I may revisit this story again in the future and add new chapters if people would like to see more. Happy Scribbling! <<less

This cave is one of the very scarce constants in this landscape of dancing destruction. The Scar is always persistently changing, yet not, the tornados wreaking havoc in their predictably twisting and reckless ways.

The Scar remains a weird kind of maze of canyons and ravines that have been continuously carved by endless parades of swirling pillars of dust, dirt, debris, and anything else that gets caught up in it. Tornadoes dictate the landscape for miles on all sides, some taking the same paths over and over, enough so that mapping them has been a tedious, yet not impossible, task for nearly a full decade now. For the research cartographers and various elders of specific areas of expertise... Not me, specifically.

I'm just a TumbleTech.

The Tumbler is a magnificent little creation that essentially acts as storm debris at the very least, personalized rocket at most, depending on the size of the fuel tank and the kick behind the thrusters on a 360° rotation. Also, it can tow a two-ton wreckage comb like it’s nothing–those handy debris-collecting honey-comb-looking cages the Rovers use to scavenge for treasures of an ancient world. <<less

The Imperium is one of the major political, military, and diplomatic forces in the entire continent. Maybe even the world. And Nyle is one of its Inquisitors, the people who investigates crimes and provide their services wherever needed with their quick wits and arcane knowledge, the only know existing magic still practised in the whole world. Were it not for his straightforwardness, and perhaps even indomitable character, and his sometimes overly scrupulous manner, he would have for sure advanced in the hierarchy. Instead, it had been years since the last promotion. If everything depended solely on his superiors, he would never advance further. But the ongoing war with one the Imperium’s neighbour countries, the Kingdom... more>> of Zirak, tension in the whole country had skyrocketed after the emperor had ordered forced recruitment. Soon after, it bursted into a revolt. In that harsh climate, a violent crime had happened, and with it an opportunity had appeared to get that coveted promotion. After all, it wasn’t his first violent crime, so it shouldn’t pose a problem…right?

Well, he was dead wrong. Nyle will be catapulted in the most difficult, dangerous, and unbelievable mystery he ever encountered. And he has to solve it, for something much more dangerous and distorted lurked beneath the appearances. Something that could change things forever not only for himself, but for the whole Imperium.
