Kaz is a kobold, just trying to survive, grow, and protect his tribe. But his efforts are about to become complicated, as dragons are nesting in a cave nearby, and humans are seeking an ancient, deadly secret in his mountain. Join Kaz as he finds out what magic and cultivation are, gets up close and personal with a dragon of his own, and delves deep into the mountain to find secrets... and a freedom he never dared to hope for.... more>>

**The Broken Knife is slow burn and will end up with at least two hundred chapters. It has a weak to strong MC, and I hope you enjoy reading about Kaz's growth as much as I enjoy writing it!**

**NOTE: There are brief depictions of slavery in an escape arc from chapters 90-119. It is neither exploitative nor glorified, but you may want to skim or skip this section if you are uncomfortable with even references to this topic.**

Note: I'll try to release five chapters a week, Monday-Friday. If you can't wait, my Patreon is ten to thirty chapters ahead at any given time (depending on tier). I try to write five chapters a week, 2-3k words per chapter. <<less

Having the power of a god isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. On top of handling a god’s many responsibilities, Alouin has to contend with the fact that reality is quickly coming to an end. Isn’t that just wonderful?... more>>

Fortunately, Alouin has help in the form of allies from five, separate iterations of reality. It would help if they would get with the program and actually, you know, help, though.

The Eternal War:

Raimie has been living a nice, boring existence in a safe corner of the woods until he comes across a random sword in the forest, and after that, everything changes. On the run from a powerful magic wielder, he’s forced to accept that he’s the last heir to a royal line, foretold to cast down the ancient evil suppressing his family’s native land. The invisible beings trailing his every step, along with the suspiciously magical anomalies they prompt in him, aren’t helping with that goal. Oh, and if that weren’t enough, the nightmares he’s had all his life have twisted into something weird and yet surprisingly familiar.

Thank the gods for family and the new friend he’s made along the way. Maybe things will turn out ok, if he could get a moment to think.

Oh, nope. There’s another threat coming to wreck his life. Time to run again.

This story was initially released on Royal Road.

It will start out very stereotypically for the first few chapters (for epic fantasy at least). If you can tolerate a couple of seeming tropes (i.e. the Chosen One etc.) for 5 or so chapters, I promise that The Eternal War will diverge into much more interesting storylines. I like writing slow burns, taking my time to establish characters etc., before getting into the exciting bits of a story. I also thoroughly enjoy trying to subvert tropes, although how successful I am with that is up to the individual reader, of course.

I will update the book every day until volume one is complete, and after that, I'll switch to a Wednesday/Saturday release schedule. <<less

James Brooks is an average high schooler in New Atlantis, a city teeming with superhumans. Despite his dad being an ex-hero and his sister Ren a genius scientist, James often feels overlooked, seeking refuge as a top battle mage in "Endless Fantasy II," an online game.... more>>

His life takes an unexpected turn when he walks away unharmed from a superhuman fight. James discovers he can morph into his game character, but with a catch: his avatar is a female demoness.

The setting is an alternate 2013 shaped by a Cold War experiment gone wrong, granting a fraction of people superpowers. However, this story isn't about superheroes; it's a blend of Mystical and Urban Fantasy, focusing on magical and mysterious elements that stay hidden from most of the world.

Anyways, as I'm not a native English speaker and this will be an experiment on my part, I will rely on AI as an editor & proofreader. If this doesn't bother you, then feel free to stay. Also, keep in mind this is my first attempt at writing something, so the way I write might change as I experiment with different styles.

Iseult has died and now she must decide what comes next

For Heather Morell, nightmares and hallucinations lurk around every corner, relics of schizophrenia and childhood bereavement.... more>>

Until she meets Raine and Evelyn, that is — self-proclaimed bodyguard and bad-tempered magician — and learns she’s not insane at all. The spirits and monsters she sees are all too real, the god-thing in her nightmares is teaching her how to surpass human limits, and her twin sister who supposedly never existed could still be alive, somewhere Outside, beyond the walls of reality.

Heather plunges into a world of eldritch magic and fanatic cultists, trying to stay alive, stay sane, and deal with her own blossoming attraction to dangerous women. But being ‘In The Know’ isn’t all terror and danger. Sometimes the monsters wear nice dresses and stick around for afternoon tea. Sometimes you find you have more in common with them than you think. Perhaps this is Heather’s chance to be something more than the defeated husk she’d grown up as, to find real friendship and meaning among things like herself - and perhaps, out there on the rim of the possible, to bring her twin sister back from the dead.

Isaac is the only remaining reactor technician of what was once a massive colony ship seeking out a new home planet. Humanity has been forced among the stars. After a cataclysmic event that renders their home world sterile, those who remain blast off and organizes into a single flotilla with a single goal: find a new home to ensure the survival of the human race.

Being among the small group of survivors, Issac and the rest of his crew stumble upon an ancient star ship floating in the outer rim of the flotilla's perimeter.

The beings within the craft threaten to wipe out the newly-arrived inhabitants of the ship. With his people again in peril, he quests to save them and stumbles upon secrets of the flotilla long-lost amid the turmoil and chaos of conflict and discovers that he alone holds the key to his people's salvation and the safety of the rest of humanity itself. <<less

"You do so enjoy employing hostage takeovers, Neil. It's about time you're on the receiving end don't you think?"... more>>

My father said those words to me while Bree was pinning me down on the floor. She wore nothing but her underwear and an oversized hoodie, that only covered up to her slender snow-white thighs.

I asked him what he meant exactly, but he only chuckled through the cell phone and said,

"Well, I guess from today onwards you're going to be taken hostage by an angel."

With that, the phone call, as well as my normal life, came to an abrupt end...

The story of Neil Dameson starts out as if it were any other regular day. He woke up, ate breakfast, took a limousine to school, and fired a couple of incompetent employees. It was the usual life of an everyday teenage millionaire. Then out of thin air, an angel named Bree appeared before him and gave him the powers of an angel. He then could see people's life spans and took on the mantle of being a "Death Watcher." With his newfound powers, he had to use them to save humanity from the threat of the "Overshadows." The Overshadows" were evil dark angels who lived eternally by stealing the life span of humans and threw the world into chaos. The weight of his duties only heightens when he finds out that he dies if he fails to save even a single human life. Forced into a situation, where Neil has to become the reluctant hero everyone wants him to be, and with his life at the mercy of the angels, he truly was a hostage.
