{Not a Harem story}... more>>

Tim wakes up to find he is naked and alone in a fantasy world that has officially labeled him an Ogre in what he believes to be a cruel joke. Before he can get his bearings, Tim is enslaved and put to work killing other monsters for his new masters. Kindhearted and used to being pushed around, Tim must find his spine and turn the tables on a world that would see him dead or in chains.

Intended as a slow burn progression and character progression story, there will be no harems amongst the primary cast of characters. More Gamelit than Litrpg, the text boxes are more frequent in the beginning but taper off as the protagonist paraphrases more mundane information in the same way a normal human being would.

Minor rewrites are coming soon, intended to raise the quality of the first nineteen chapters and split them to a more manageable 7500-ish wordcount each. They will be marked with {Rewrite} once they go live. ETA for the rollout is by the end of August 2022

Released 1/week over the Australian weekend.

I primarily upload on Royal Road, so the release to Scribblehub is sometimes a day or two later due to derp brain.

For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in.... more>>

The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless.

Yet fate had a different path in store for her.

For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being.

Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death.

She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath.

What will fate deal her next?

Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday.

---------------------------------------

Expect:

-Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages

-World building

-Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures

-Occasional action

Do not expect:

-Much in terms of romance

-Politics, barring passing views and mentions

-A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one

Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated.

And thank you for reading.

Dreams.
I never thought much about them.
Mostly for the point that I could never remember any of mine.
And the bits and pieces that remain would never make sense.
This is what dreams are like after all.
Just some random mix, thrown together by an unstable mind to get over the stuff which bothered one during the day.
At least that's what I thought.
Until they turned against me.
Twisted everything I knew and turned my whole existence into a nightmare.
But the thing is...... more>>

It's mine. <<less

This is a slow-burn isekai story about a young girl named Siya who was born with a weak body into a world that only cares about Strength. Because of this, she isn’t able to even use the only thing she has going for her, a knack for strategy, which is the last thing that the nation of meat heads seems to care about.

She faces many hardships and trials, struggling through abuse, grueling training, and seeing death around every turn. Despite all of this, she presses on, grasping at straws and using everything at her disposal to survive. Turning to devine favor, unique abilities, and even magic and dark magic later on, they each come with a new problem. As she finds unlikely friends, and deals with unthinkable betrayals, she struggles to finally stand tall and place herself in a position of power where her true abilities could finally shine.

This is NOT a revenge story, but that isn’t to say the main character magically forgives people either. <<less

After three decades, Simon's life isn't what he hoped it would be. Taking his destiny into his own hands he decides to find another world where he can be the hero he was always meant to be. It turns out there's more to combat than having lightning reflexes with his controller though, and the path to being a hero is more brutal than he can imagine. Death after Death is a dark, sardonic take on the Isekai genre with roguelike elements. It explores some of the common tropes in a different light. ... more>>

Have you ever wondered what a character in a novel or in a game should be? ... more>>

Do they eat? Sleep? Do they have their own life when you are not reading or playing?

They do not.

When you are not doing anything, we stay still.

To be fair, think about your own life. Is it different from a game without a system? You can not see behind your back, similar to how a character has to render it in a game.

But at least, you have your own life.

While I have to watch the protagonist of the novel find his way into the pants of the female leads.

This is my destiny.

I'm not jealous. Not at all.

'Allie held a deep-seated resentment towards god. As a child, she was raised Lutheran Christian though it never settled in. She figured her mother needed... more>> something to believe in. Leslie Smith was a hopeful woman, despite her life’s transgressions. Her mother often worked two or even three jobs to keep them afloat and at times could be neglectful- all of that was crumbs compared to what the Winchesters had endured. Her mother was a tough woman, though. No wonder Bobby had taken a liking to her that night.
But when death came knocking no god attended. No one helped. Allie was left alone to pick up the pieces and through that abandoned faith, if she ever had much. What God had ever given a shit about her? Hours spent in confinement with others saying the prayer, only to be forgotten.'
❀
Past experiences have left Alice Smith... jaded. After her mother's death and a toxic relationship, she decided to find her father- Robert Singer, a man she'd never met due to being the product of a sloppy one-night stand. Through the connection, she meets Dean Winchester and finds herself on a journey across acceptance, love, and saving the entire god damn world.

Out of an unnaturally quiet night, a bedraggled woman in noble finery requests access to the southern capital. Who she is has been lost to time for most, but her continued existence will throw everything further out of balance.... more>>

Janurana had barely survived her royal house's destruction at the hands of foreign invaders, surviving day by day in the scattered pocket forests and arid shrub lands, constantly escaping the ghosts of her past.

The south has barely survived their recent Pyrrhic victory against the north immediately followed by a coup. The north is bloodied but unbowed, on the brink of civil war, but still ready to take up arms against the southern invaders.

The leaders of the south cannot afford another obstacle.

And Janurana is just that.

Yet her chance meeting with a woman expelled from the warrior class named Dhanur gives them both a chance to avenge the ones they loved, finish what they failed to do, and return to a normal life.

Set in a fantasized bronze age India featuring LGBT female leads. Told in an omniscient pov with glances into multiple characters.

For as long as anyone can remember, humans have been preyed upon by Harbingers, living nightmares which devour dreams and passions and souls, and defended by Keepers. These children alone hold the gift of magic, the wild and wondrous ability to impose emotions over reality and empower their frail bodies with the splendor of their souls. Under their protection, humanity was able to survive and thrive.... more>>

While modern Keepers have come to enjoy a social position somewhere between celebrities and religious idols, very few accept the mantle simply to be a hero. The Messengers of the Goddess Claiasya, spirits charged with awakening the magic in suitable souls, promise that Keepers who consume and purify enough Harbingers will obtain the power to change themselves or the world in nearly any way they wish.

It’s for this purpose that Liadain Shiel, a young girl born terminally ill, throws herself into life as a Keeper when her opportunity comes, hoping against hope to rewrite her fate and save her life while she still can.

But magic wants its wielders to grow and change, not simply continue living, and the secrets swimming beneath the sea and behind the sky have lives and designs of their own.

Nowhere Stars is an ongoing fantasy-horror web novel about traumacore magical girls, nightmares clothed in ribbons and lace, alienation from reality, and broken children twisting the world into whatever shape they must to make their dreams come true.

A Steampunk/ Gaslamp Fantasy Romance set in the industrial revolution era of a fictional world.... more>>

Magic, mad science, multicultural ambience, and political intrigue all tightly laced up into one corset and powered by the steam of two romances - one F/M and one M/M.

Intended for mature audiences, 18+.

~~~*~~~

All creations carry a trace of the maker's ethereal energy, whether deliberately placed in the magical Artifacts made by the Alchemists, or unwittingly left in the handiwork of ordinary people.

Kazia can feel that energy, in both machines and people. She may not be able to do any of the grand magic other Alchemists can, but give her a damaged machine and she can trace its energy to the problem, and know precisely how to repair it. She does have one other ability. One far more dangerous. One she will never acknowledge, and will never use.

Fleeing her villainous father rather than becoming his pawn, Kazia finds a peaceful life on a farm in a neighboring country, where no one knows that she is the daughter of Prince Gorvan Devratha. But with war looming between her birth country of Valesk and her new home in Caedra, how long can that peaceful life last?

She can be safe in the Caedran capital, among the Queen's Alchemists, but will anyone there trust her – especially the handsome but embittered Lord Kelvaran Meratha, who suspects Kazia's father of murdering his family?

Abrizhen is Kazia's older brother. He does his best to play the role of the Prince's good son and heir, but when tasked with retrieving his wayward sister, he must return to the city he'd called home for many of his youthful years. There he'll have to reckon with his past, and finally choose between the life of a dutiful prince, or the welfare of his sister – and the rekindling of an old flame.

Content/ Mature warnings are on for:

Gore: Nothing terribly extreme. Some bleeding wounds and broken bits, but all limbs remain attached and all innards remain inward.

Sexual Content: It's not all smut all the time, but there is some. I aim for not vague but also not overly lewd. Smut chapters are labeled NSFW. Chapters with very brief smut or just some torrid making out or somesuch are labeled NSFW-ish. All on-screen depictions are consensual, but there are a few passing references to noncon having happened off-screen (not to any MCs).

Strong Language: One character really loves to swear, and could probably construct an entire monologue with just various inflections of the F word. So, yeah, that's on too.

Other CWs: Dark themes (abuse, trauma, ptsd, depression, unhealthy coping mechanisms). Mostly in discussions of past events, but there are a few scenes that may be troubling to some readers. <<less

When Zalan falls asleep to escape the pain of his relationship with his mother, he awakens in a vivid fantasy world teeming with Elementals, deadly monsters, and world-spanning adventure. He can even work to wield the power of lightning, itself. Confused about how he arrived in this strange new land, Zalan reluctantly joins forces with a guide, Rep, who promises to help him find an Artifact to return home: The Homeseeker.... more>>

Zalan and his new companion must master the art of battle and their unique Elemental Abilities to survive against increasingly deadly foes. As his growing group quests to a foreboding castle to retrieve the Artifact from a ferocious dragon, their clashing personalities and fighting tactics are put to the test. Some want to participate in glorious combat, others want to use their Elemental Abilities to their fullest extent. Zalan really just wants to go home.

Along the way, Zalan begins to question if this adventure is just an elaborate dream... or if it's his new reality. As Zalan begins to embrace this new world of wonder, he's given the opportunity to take on a role as an adventuring hero, but doing so will mean letting go of his home forever—assuming he's not consumed by the dark secrets he's tried to bury, first.

After losing his whole squad in a tragic firefight, permanently injured ex-pilot Hikaru Tatsumi returns to the military school he graduated from six years prior barely a living shell of himself.

A slow love story between a deeply wounded omega, and a delinquent alpha who's not that much of a delinquent at heart.

Surely after everything they should get their happy ending?

Unlike one and two this one is heavy on the depressive tones and pain. You don’t necessarily need to read one or two as this book is the book I wanted to write with the first two being the practice run up.

There is no R**E, cheating, or non-con between our two lovers… but there are some very annoying moments when you’ll want to grab either of the and shake them for the pain they caused each other. There will be tears… and please know there are triggering topics outside of miscarriage, abortion, blindness, heart break, amnesia, and team death.

Yes. There’s a looooot of dogs blood and vinegar. <<less
