Paying rent sucks. Properties are overpriced. But could you fix that with magic?... more>>

Become the strongest, defeat powerful enemies, save the world—those are the typical things people who get summoned to another world do. Clayton Stratton won’t have any of that, though. He’d rather stay in the comforts of his home and enjoy a cup of tea over a book. However, that doesn’t mean he’ll ignore the world’s problems. He’ll just leave it to others instead.

Unfortunately for Clay, he came into an unfriendly world, broke. With monsters overflowing from dungeons limiting humanity’s living space to the few walled cities they have, a regular job won’t be enough to pay the bills. From what he has read about dungeons, the living conditions will only get worse the more time passes. In order to build himself a cozy home and guide others with his knowledge of the dungeons, he’ll have to do utilize the miraculous power of magic to tackle both goals.

Construction work isn’t easy. Neither is getting others to listen to his word without coming off as a crazy doomer. Thankfully, his two goals may not be as different as he thinks.

What to expect?

- An Earth Mage with an unorthodox build (Not just shooting big spells)

- Kingdom building? More like building buildings.

- Dungeon delving

- Recreating modern comforts with magic (Who wants to live somewhere without proper plumbing?)

- Probably a shovel <<less

Anomalies have always existed in the world, without any specific pattern. Sometimes they were places, other times objects, and occasionally, beings. Almost all anomalies possess something called “anomalous power” an innate ability that grants them capabilities that defy all the laws of nature. And I... ended up becoming one of these anomalies.... more>>

Ryuuji Sato has a dream. It’s not about getting good grades or being popular. It’s about getting summoned to another world, being brutally betrayed by his companions, and returning from the brink as an impossibly cool, overpowered anti-hero. For two years, he's meticulously crafted the perfect persona of a quiet, forgettable loner—all to set the stage for his epic revenge plot.... more>>

The plan is flawless. When he and three of his classmates are transported to a fantasy world, it’s all going perfectly. The goddess in charge immediately deems him too weak, preparing to banish him to a monster-filled labyrinth. This is it. The moment his real story begins.

There’s just one problem: his classmates don’t hate him. In fact, they think he's a secret hero who has been helping them from the shadows all along. Instead of leaving him for dead, the group’s golden-boy leader steps in to save him, ruining everything.

Now, Ryuuji is stuck. He’s trapped in the one thing he never wanted: a heroic party that actually likes him. Every attempt he makes to get himself hated and cast out just makes them admire him more. How can you get revenge on people who refuse to be your enemies?

My second chance will be; MY REVERSE LIFE
___________________

Ari, a privileged heir living a charmed life, had always seen himself as a winner. Pampered by wealth and power, his life came crashing down when his father crossed a line that should never have been crossed. In the blink of an eye, Ari’s world unraveled into chaos, culminating in a tragic end—murdered by the very person who once gave him life: his mother.

But death was not the end.

Reborn as Miyazaki Aria, the eldest daughter of an unremarkable family, Ari vowed to abandon the arrogance of his former life. This time, he would seize the second chance with humility and purpose.

In this new world, hidden beneath the surface of everyday life, powerful Espers and fearsome monsters clash in secret battles. Ordinary people are blissfully unaware of the chaos lurking in the shadows. Among them is Irana, Aria's younger twin sister. A gifted Esper with mastery over ice, Irana has endured grueling training since the age of seven. Her mission is clear: protect her elder sister at all costs and prevent her latent, destructive powers from awakening—a secret so dangerous it could change everything.

As Irana fights to safeguard Aria from a world of danger she cannot see, Aria struggles to navigate a second life filled with unexpected challenges, deep family bonds, and a destiny far more perilous than either of them could imagine. <<less

She will stop at nothing to claim the throne. After striking a dangerous deal with a mysterious stranger, a wealthy, powerful woman finds herself trapped in the very fantasy game she helped create. Reborn as Seraphina de Sariens, daughter of a duke and engaged to a cold Crown Prince, she quickly learns she’s not the destined heroine but rather the villainess—fated to summon dark forces and be destroyed by the story’s true savior.... more>>

But the new Seraphina holds one advantage: a vast knowledge of the game’s world coupled with a ruthless ambition. With danger lurking at every corner and the shadow of treason threatening her life, she must maneuver through cutthroat politics and betrayals. If she succeeds in this realm, ultimate power will be hers—but if she fails, the price is death.

And just when I thought things couldn’t get worse… I mysteriously woke up as a girl. Now, I’m stuck in a body that isn’t mine, forced to navigate a life that’s spiraling out of control.

Assigned to infiltrate Sakura High School as a student (yes, as a student), his mission is to uncover the truth behind a suspicious pudding distribution network linked to global experiments on youth behavior.

But between rehearsing Shakespeare, spiking volleyballs, and avoiding the romantic attention of teenagers and faculty, Kenji starts to question which is more dangerous: the mission... or the minors.

The school seems oblivious. The vending machines are full of suspicious desserts. And the nurse might be part of something bigger than anyone suspects.

Comedy, absurdity, and deadpan spy tactics collide in this parody of espionage thrillers and high school anime. <<less

“Volume 1: Strange Beginnings” Chapter 1-46

“What does a depressed student, investigator, a wanted witch, refugee, priest, and a man from another world have in common… nothing actually. Just that where they started was a little special, but where they are all headed is somewhere truly strange. For eventually they will cross paths with each other both directly and indirectly.

This story is a slow burn and has many lead characters and points of views, so don't expect too much in the first few chapters. I'm a very, and i mean very, slow writer so I'll only be updating this once a week on Saturdays. I also release mini intermission chapters in between my regulars updates sporadically.

This story is also written in a weird experimental playwright style to allow quick and easy conversation between multiple people to occur at once. This style might not might not appeal to some.

Also, if it wasn't obvious, most of the artwork you see in this series is AI generated. <<less

There has always been a war between good and evil. Trinity Academy is at the forefront of this war, it was the key for the... more>> future of humanity. A major trigger point on 06/27/3126 YDB will begin the apocalypse as the academy for developing the new generation of heroes falls from the forces of darkness. To avoid such a calamity those trying to start the apocalypse must be stopped before they can complete their mission. The gods picked their champions to purge the plague of evil out of the academy and save the world. Except every time that date rolled around, the heroes failed. Every reset and reattempt, they failed. Nine times already. The gods now only had one last chance to reset everything. A pair of young twin goddesses out of desperation began to look outside the box for some hope of changing this dark fate. They thought that perhaps someone who never originally meant to go to Trinity Academy could be brought in to change things for the better. Someone with a different view, someone with a little experience with hero work prior to entering the school. Enter Archer Griffen, residing on the opposite side of the world he was one of the few who were directly taught by the heroes of the old generation. A hero in training through and through, albeit a peculiar one. The mad dog, the sloth, the sleuth, the tick, the nightmare, the liar, the knight, are just a few of the nicknames Archer has had fortune or perhaps misfortune of earning from his peers. The twin goddesses decide that maybe a person like him could avoid the calamity. He was never supposed to be here, and his entrance does change things, though perhaps not necessarily for the better. But who knows what damage this unexpected no-named outlier could cause to Trinity Academy. Can the boy who avoided death avoid destruction for all? Only time will tell. <<less

Chapter every Monday and Thursday (usually).... more>>

This story is about: an internet troll and "critic" who gets transported into the manga she trash-talked online, and now she must save it from the apocalypse. The twist? People back in her own world are reading and commenting on the manga as it updates, so she must always stay in character. (And no, this isn't a "revenge fantasy" against a reader 😑)

What to expect: comedy and satire in addition to character-focused drama, and eventually some darker parts. There is also no gold-digging in the literal meaning of the word (lol). It's a metaphor that will make sense at some point.

Notorious internet troll and critic, Amy Stake, has "karma" catch up to her when she criticizes the writing of a vengeful Goddess and gets reincarnated into a brutal shonen battle manga known for its astronomical body count.

In an ironic twist of fate, she'll only get the powers the manga readers imagine she has, and her strength will be directly proportional to how much they love her.

With death lurking at every step, Amy must now claw her way into the main story by any means necessary. Scene-stealing entrances, manufactured drama, and a possibly fabricated tragic backstory… Whatever it takes to secure her place as a fan favorite before the end of the world arrives. <<less

Sapphic trans woman and chronic boy-moder Lily DiGiacomo has got it all figured out. Sure, her family's construction business has fallen on hard times, her love life has dried up, and she's been banned from half the bars in Boston, but that doesn't mean she needs any help, surely. However, everything is thrown into disarray when a project requires her to work with a corporate point-man: Crispin Winfield IV, rich kid pretty boy and man-whore extraordinaire. A rough start leads to a tenuous friendship and, in turn, a mutually beneficial arrangement: Lily will pretend to be Crispin's fiancé to get his parents off his back, and in turn, Crispin will pay for Lily's medical expenses.... more>> All they have to do is sell the act for a while. Surely nothing will complicate this. Surely Lily won't catch feelings for this absurd, beautiful man. I mean, she doesn't even like guys. Definitely not. Okay, maybe not.

{Snow} Twelve years could not be more torturous. Not having his powers was one thing, but being forced to part from his lover was a monster of its own.

Carrying the burden of twelve-years' worth of letters, Snow must navigate giving Noel space and caring for him. Can he find the balance between loving Noel and breaking the curse? Or will he ultimately be the reason for the Revolution's downfall? <<less

"Some love stories stay hidden in the shadows. Ours demands to be seen in the spotlight."... more>>

 A queer coming-of-age epic based on multiple years.

This is a tale of forbidden love, faith under fire, and families turned inside out from viral mistakes. It is a story about a boy, and a spotlight he never wanted, and the boy who refuses to stop dragging him into the light.

There will be locker room tension, youth group guilt, after-school rehearsals, whispered car rides, secret DMs and public heartbreak, and love that keeps surviving long after it should have burned out.

In The EndZone Of Us is a slow-burn, dual-POV romance that doesn’t just question what it means to love — it asks what it costs.

📖 For fans of longform, character-rich love stories with emotional highs, viral disaster and unfiltered first love and the unbearable weight of being seen.
----------------------------------------------------------
BLAKE: Everybody says I have everything — varsity quarterback, straight-A student, captain of the water polo team, leader of the youth group. Perfect son of the church-going family. NFL first-round draft-eligible in the future. But none of it counts when I’m by myself. Because I can’t get the boy with the eyeliner, the camera, and the softest voice that blows my world to pieces whenever he laughs, out of my head. He’s all the things I’m not supposed to want. And the harder I try to get away, the more I need him.

SEBASTIÁN: You know what's worse than falling in love with a closet-case? Falling for this closet case. Blake freaking Maddox—America’s golden boy and the biggest conundrum I’ve ever kissed. I don’t come here to be anyone’s secret. But with him? It’s never just a kiss. It’s confession. War. Prayer. He touches me as if he were drowning and I’ve got all the air left. But how do you hold onto someone who the world tells he’s not supposed to love you right back?

TOGETHER: We never meant to fall in love. But across locker rooms and midnight rehearsals, Sunday sermons and viral videos, championship stadiums, we became something more. We were the one thing the world attempted to keep away from one another. This is our shared journey unedited, it’s raw, it’s beautiful, it’s brutal. We’re going to break hearts. Including our own. But we’re not playing it safe any longer. Not in love. Not in life. Not in the endzone.
