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.

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

[Become the Top Idol, and the Creator shall grant your deepest desire.]... more>>

Lenny Park, a 24-year-old debt-ridden failure and societal outcast receives an invite link from an unknown sender and becomes a 'Pointer' in the elite world of Top Idol — where beauty, talents, might, and fortune can simply be bought with viral points.

But, to earn viral points and secure his status as an esteemed pointer, he must complete heinous daily tasks, acquire fame & influence, and also battle against other pointers with the risks of either total disqualification... or death.

In this game of fame, Hollywood and entertainment are his footstools. From writing bestsellers to making chart-topping music that are awarded Grammys left and right, to winning Oscars for my phenomenal acting, and directing blockbuster movies. The sky is just the starting point.

...

Immense power. Godly might. Infinite riches and wealth. Knowledge of the universe's secrets. Eternal life. Resurrection of a lost loved one. Which desire stirs deep within your soul? What price are you willing to pay? What lines are you willing to cross?

When those from beyond the stars came, the six Houses stood against them, saving the world from invaders intent on destroying it. Generations later, those same Houses form the bedrock of Lutov, a seemingly perfect society where all are provided for. Here, war is a myth and death, a choice. Yet here, no one questions their devotion to their chosen House.... more>>

Zaeden will soon join a House, a choice he’s dreaded since childhood. All he’s ever wanted is to live outside of the Houses' control, to find freedom. Unfortunately, he's caught the attention of the legendary Lokke Vitras, the protector and shield of the homeland, and that man is determined to decide his future. Zaeden will serve as his replacement, becoming the Lokke Vitras in his own time, whether he likes it or not.

As he goes through his training, Zaeden faces many trials and moral dilemmas, but the one that most challenges him is a question he’s asked his whole life. How can he find freedom when the world insists on defining who he is?

This story is for people who like snarky, clever protagonists with a dash of recklessness and extreme loyalty to those they love. It is for lovers of the self-critical, the idealistic, and what happens when such people are trapped in their own worst nightmare. Lastly, it is for those who enjoy reading about glittering societies that are not at all what they seem.

As with everything I write, The Art of Becoming is a slow-burn fiction with a heavy focus on characterization. There will be sexual content, but I am not graphic with that, and most of the scenes depicted serve to move the plot or character development along in one way or another. Also, Zaeden is pansexual, polyamorous, and most importantly, extremely social, so yes, there will be a romantic subplot. It is not, however, the main focus of the story.

The Art of Becoming takes place several centuries after one of my other fictions: Planetfall. Reading that story isn't necessary, and there will only be slight spoilers about the overall ending of that book in this one. I consider Planetfall to be the prequel for The Art of Becoming.

For the weekend of its release, I'll be uploading several chapters, but after that weekend, I will update with one chapter a day Monday-Friday at 1 pm PST. <<less

English is not my first language. I'm doing my best but I'm not even close to 75% certainty that everything I write is grammatically correct.

This novel is vaguely inspired by A Silent Voice/Komi Can't Communicate for its slice of life part and by Genshin Impact/Paladins for its adventure part.

An Unequal Share is a character focused series of episodic stories, placed in a grounded and low magic medieval setting. It's progression dark fantasy, with bisexual and polyamorous romantic sub-plots. Regular updates are Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

- Non-linear storytelling, frequent action and intrigue. 
- Protagonist who tries to be morally good, but is forced into harsh situations where she must confront complex and grey choices for survival.
- Serious character development narrative with protagonist failures and setbacks, no ridiculous power scaling.
- Detailed world with religions, mythology, and history.
- Magic system based on real world folklore, some minor western-style cultivation elements.
- A crossdressing, bisexual, polyamorous, female MC, taking inspiration from the historical Joan of Arc.

A towering wall separates two worlds, one rich in knowledge and technology, the other plagued by ignorance and savagery. It never used to be like that. Humans lived in tranquility and unity in the City of Ionia, a utopia where minimal crime and violence occurred. Those who stirred up crime and violence were labeled as sinners. More sinners emerged, jeopardizing peace. Because of this, the city decided to exile every sinner to the other side of the walls. The City of Ionia created SCAR, a brutal organization that combats and handles sinners within their city and sometimes outside the walls.... more>>

This is actually a complete remake of my original book by the same name. I've made major changes to the entire story and every character. As I am still attending college, I have only so much time to work on this, but progress is certainly being made. I estimate the book will be anywhere from 80k to 120k words by the end. If you have any feedback you wish to give, or suggestions to make, please do not hesitate. I welcome all criticism, but I don't take everything too seriously so don't feel as though you may offend me by pointing something out. Growth is only achieved by improving where one is lacking, after all. <<less

How can you say these words to a person who knew only war? Who never knew the warmth of love? How do you fix the broken who sought only rest from such a hellish life?

Emma was one of these unfortunate souls. Cursed by the life she was forced in, lost everything and everyone she held dear to the people she once trusted... and now she is forced to relive the same nightmare all over again. Broken and half mad, Emma abandoned her name and family in hopes to find refuge from the horrors of war... but it's shadow could never leave her alone.

The Silent Heir explores the psychological damage and trauma a person would have if they were reincarnated. Everything up to that point will be remembered. Good and bad memories alike. Unfortunately for this story, the memories that can be count as one are limited. It also tries to tell a story what a ptsd might look like for a soldier after their death should the memory persists. I am in no way experienced anything this level of experiences, but I will do my best in writing them justly.

This is my first work, please do forgive the wrong grammars as English is not my first language. I don't think I need to say this but please do not copy my work

Morrigan died as the unwilling sacrifice in a demonic ritual, but the Grim Reaper has another plan for this wayward soul—to make her his new apprentice!... more>>

Reaping isn't exactly her dream summer job, (long hours, crappy pay, no benefits) but with the alternative being banished to limbo, she's ready to give it a shot!

Will Morrigan embrace her new role as a bringer of death, or cling hopelessly to her lost humanity? Either way, she'll have to adapt to a world of spirits, hollows, black magic, and demons while completing her daily murder list is "just part of the job."

Warning: While this is largely a coming-of-age story it also deals heavily with death and the many forms it comes in. This includes murder, suicide, drug overdose, gruesome traffic accidents, and more. If these topics are something you'd rather avoid, please read something else.

*****

I plan for this to be a very long series spanning many centuries. The first few volumes will cover Morrigan's first years as an apprentice reaper, but I imagine later volumes covering her existence hundreds (or even thousands) of years from now as an experienced bringer of death.

I'll be doing daily releases for a while but will eventually go down to a mon/wed/fri schedual. <<less
