It didn't have a name. It didn't have memories. It had waived away its rights to these when it had signed its Service Contract. It would care more if it could, but beneath all the metal and wires, there wasn't much left to care with. There was one thing. A tug at the back of what it thought of as its mind. A tickling at the edge of perception. A yearning for something it had never had.... more>>

Allen Cromwell found himself transported to an apocalyptic world, where he assumed the role of a weapon store owner. Despite his easy-going and kind-hearted demeanor, there lurked a secret layer of caution and goal-oriented determination within him.... more>>

This new reality proved to be more complex than he initially imagined. Populated by countless constellations and menacing demons, where crime thrived, and survival was uncertain, Allen managed to carve out a peaceful existence. He did so by selling weapons to kind-hearted customers, some of whom even expressed their gratitude with thoughtful gifts.

Little did he know...

“How in the hell is this a revolver? It’s clearly a dragon slayer!”

A Miraculous Journey With Thor And Hisstory is not a typical web novel; it’s traditional literature in the vein of J.R.R.

This book is just a silly little project to help me with my daily writing goal of putting out 2000 words per day! If you stick around and enjoy it, then I'm so glad!

Be warned, this book is written around a trans woman and her experiences of discovering that fact, and hate won't be tolerated in the comments or anywhere else regarding this. It's a fun story for people to enjoy, not a punching bag.

I, the wholly happy-go-lucky character, go through life on an alternate Earth with some "minor" differences. Yes indeedy do! I promise an absolutely joyous time!... more>>

I tell no lies.

What minor differences you ask? Well, here's some advice. Don't drink that lava in a bottle, or you'll spend a night of fiery passion extra happy! Then you'll spend another night happy again after you grab another. And then you'll buy another. And another. And another. And then... no more!

And be careful who you kiss. Romance the love of your life and you may just end up as a very angry furry one bright night. After that, you'll probably wake up to breakfast in bed though!

And finally... you'll probably be fine... I doubt you've got problems... but just in case! I want to make sure you have the best experience here. Just follow Peter Pan's instructions: "Think happy thoughts!"

If you want to know more, just come enter the world!

All you need is to go read my story, you silly!

And don't worry, nothing bad happens to me! I swear on Scout's honor it's true!

Oh wait... that phrase doesn't work anymore since the year that Señor Screaming Fingers turned both Scouts groups to... art.

Pfffft, HAHAHA! No matter. Just trust me. You should take absolutely everything I say at face-value! <<less

Her world was unfair, dominated by massive megacorporations within the walls of massive megacities. Those born rich only get richer, whilst the majority of the population, the poor, could only wallow in misery. That was how the Cities worked.

Cassandra lamented, until she met you. You, who made the System, and wanted to bring change just as much as her.
