Returning to a previous life she doesn’t remember, Tori wakes up in a fantasy world as the heir to an empire. One where magic called cultivation rules. While doing research and kickstarting an industrialization, she has to deal with a family of transmigrators, politics, and spirits. Maybe she’ll even figure out why some of them keep trying to kill her.... more>>

Life in a different world has its challenges, even if it’s the life you’re supposed to lead.

This is a slightly tongue-in-cheek take on a transmigration/cultivation novel. The story will be more focused on characters than action. A few characters, including the MC, are LGBT+. 

Updates: Mon. & Thurs. <<less

Sarric dreamed of dragons all his life; such flights of fancy captured his imagination at a young age and sustained him through a life of struggle at the hands of the cruel hunters that ruled the isolated mountain town of Rivermist. One day, a true-to-life dragon appears before him, dazzling Sarric with her beauty... and enticing him with concrete answers to the vague unease and depression that's assailed him for as long as he can remember. Will Sarric take the treasure the dragon offers, and finally find happiness via gender apotheosis? Or will the hunters interfere, and squash the draconic flame of hope before it has a chance to truly flourish?... more>>

What an extraordinary our world is, full of mysteries and wonders, loaded with spectacles and allures. Yet brutal and merciless.

This is the codex of creatures, contains epic tales of exotic beings; cruel, savage, sometimes tender, and merciful, but never careless or trusting.
This is the written saga of their struggle in this never-ending cycle of life and death.

***Salvation***

Innyana range, home, and a hunting ground for numerous beings. A place for predators where the inattentive can only be prey.

Something is going on in this tiny village near the deadly Crocotta's cliff.
Who is the newcomer who enchanted the inhabitants by his arrival?
And why some people can never get out of this place?

Author's notes :
1- English is not my first language.
2- I am a student and full-time worker, that's why I am slow at writing.
3- This is the first draft hence there is a lot of typos and mistakes, forgive me for this. I am working to be better.
4- This is a high and dark fantasy novel read at your own risk.
5- Enjoy. <<less

======
Very queer/poly, very fluffy, very not cisgender story about falling in love and talking about feelings. Heavily influenced by the work of Octavia E. Butler. Her Xenogenisis series mostly, where aliens came to earth to make human hybrid babies because they wanted cancer, only without all the weird consent issues she loves.

This will be mostly me working my way through interesting ideas without much of anything in the way of story arcs or core conflicts other than what feels interesting within the fiction at the time. When doing tabletop RPG stuff I'm a very 'fly by the seat of your pants' GM so this is that blasted into writing.

Content warnings:
*death of a parent
*cancer
*mention of transphobic parents
*mention of "chasers" and trans fetishizing
*panic attacks
*autistic meltdown and sensory issues/overload
*discussion and practice of self governed mind alteration
*alcohol consumption
*Discussions of STDs and safe sex practices
I'll add more here as I see them or am notified I missed something. Any chapter bigger stuff comes up will also have notes at the beginning.

*I use "gender bender" loosely, less as in genre tropes of forced or accidental transformation. More in that there will be gender fuckery, but it will be done under conscious control of the character for their own ends (mostly comfort in fluid identity or messing with cis people).
*"Genderless Protagonist" should be nonbinary, but that's not an option😜

This is my first real attempt at creative writing so it’s rough but it feels nice to put out there. Please feel free to toss constructive criticism my way as you think of things.

Please note: Published Daily... more>>

Welcome dear friends, to the Virtual Reality Full Immersion System called Bookworld Online!

This is your chance to live the lives of your favorite characters from your favorite stories. Not only can you complete the stories as they exist and live the actual life the character lived, you can also diverge from the known canon of information and forge a new path for your favorite character to follow.

I know this sounds too good to be true, and in some respects it is. You will only be given choices during key moments and not on a constant basis, since our computers can only handle so many requests at one time. Some scenes and actions are done by default in order to keep the narrative going... however... if you diverge too far from the normal story lines or choose an original story based on the characters and their lives, then the process can become even more exciting for you, the player.

So, will you relive what you know and only change a single moment or will you branch out on your own and see what our team of writers can come up with for you to experience?

It is all up to you! <<less

For generations, Christian’s family have had a natural ability to see beings that are usually invisible to humans and to do magic. They aren’t, however, the only witches in the world or even in the area. When his Scottish-born mother wants to return to her family, and her husband and his widower father decide to go with her, Christian inherits the responsibility for their house and its hidden library.... more>>

Not alone, however. His family leave him with a roommate, Mark, an apparently normal human around his own age. But appearances are especially deceptive in this case.

Christian builds a reputation, first around the New Age bookshop where he works, then beyond that, as someone to turn to when things go bump in the night. Whether it's lingering negative energy, a lost ghost, or a dangerous infestation, he'll solve it. Sometimes, that's with the help of a powerful, sensual, and often bloodthirsty lamia who is still perplexed about how she has come to genuinely care about a human.

Throw in a group of witches called the Fellowship, who are firmly convinced that all witches should come under their authority and above all else stay below the radar; a subgroup within the Fellowship who feel that the ends for the greater good justify any means; a few supernatural threats; a friend from another independent witch family, who has a very close past history with a kitsune who says less than she does; Christian’s Dungeons and Dragons gamer group; a young black cat in dire need of a home; a colony of feral cats inherited from his great-aunt; and a couple of non-witch friends, and life gets complicated in a hurry.

Two characters in this are significantly transgender, in different ways, and orientation is mostly not a consideration. Oh, and it's set in 1998, which was when the very first, very rough draft was written.

** Trigger warnings **
This one does have more explicit sex and violence than my usual, and that's primarily all about the titular lamia herself. It's going to be difficult to be comprehensive without spoilers, but feel free to ask if you have questions, I completely understand. Broad strokes: lamias are a form of energy vampire/succubus (sort of) and actively hunt men to feed, usually without killing but also without consent - if you're okay with the typical vampire/succubus morality this should be okay. (Consent is different with humans she knows!) Lamias tend to have a very direct and physical approach to removing obstacles and annoyances; most of the violence is towards aggressive supernatural creatures (one scene came out particularly gory), but not all of it. One minor character who appears briefly late in the story endured some abuse that ends at that point. There's no harm done to children or animals with the single exception of a cat hunting a mouse. Please be careful with this one if you're prone to triggers!

Five moons rise over Evanir, each in her own cycle, and each moon is also a god, one of five sisters.... more>>

Many gods create spirit attendants and companions, brought forth fully-formed. Long ago, the moons worked together to create a lineage that are, instead, humans transformed by the mingling of blood.

They intended them to be long-lived and to draw their strength directly from the light of the moon who chose each individual. The five sisters had different goals in mind – one wanted it to be a blessing for scholars and artists, to give them more time and fewer physical distractions; another wanted them to have an animal form, different for each, to keep them more in tune with nature so they could serve as guardians of the wilderness.

There are drawbacks to their children having human lives and personalities before being chosen: not all share the goals of their divine mothers, and some choose to put their gifts to darker uses.

A few carry the blood of one woman who fled the corruption in search of a quiet life. Some joined the family by choice, some by accident; they come from highly varied backgrounds, and have diverse skills. Looking out for each other, unable to settle anywhere for long, they try to help humans when they can. Ultimately, there is no greater threat for them to tackle than the other children of the moons.

-=-=-=-=-

Moonblood isn't so much a novel as a series of adventures of varying length. They involve a core group of people, which does grow over time. They take place in a low-magic world, but despite that, our core cast are directly connected to the moons and have various abilities, including limited shapeshifting to a single individual animal form.

As with all my work, unless gender, orientation, or other aspects of sexuality are explicitly stated, I suggest not making assumptions. Probably most significant, I think, is a major trans character who appears about 80K words in - no spoilers, just a note for those who care about that one way or the other. <<less

This man promises them adventure on another world, called Calorin, if they are willing to help him with an experiment.

Thanks to some peer pressure Andrew reluctantly agrees to join the experiment. The friends are soon on their way to Calorin but Andrew notices feelings coming from the bracelet, ones that want nothing to do with the strange man. It is just before they arrive at their destination that the... more>> bracelet changes everything for Andrew and he finds himself separated from his friends and the strange man.

A human shaman and healer returns from several years with the mysterious shyani, accompanied by her shapeshifting puma best friend. A valued friend, from her previous identity as a male student physician, has acquired an old shyani book, and extremists will not tolerate its presence in human hands. But back in human lands, the question arises: which world does she belong in?... more>>

Generations ago, human explorers found a continent inhabited by an utterly alien culture of shapeshifting weyres and the shyani, humanoids who prefer dusk and dawn. A truce of sorts was eventually reached: humans claimed the rich lowlands, and the shyani and weyres retain the highlands. Along the border, practicality often rules, but on either side, old grudges linger in some hearts.

As a student physician, Corin tried to take his own life, unable to bear the countless tiny wounds inflicted over twenty-one years of lying to himself in order to be, or pretend to be, socially acceptable. At the last improbable instant, intervention came, in the form of a spirit fox, who led him away from the existence he’d known in the lowlands and into the highlands. There, a puma weyre rescued him, and a shyani shaman helped him find his true self and offered a rebirth, a life with no more lies, and an important role to fill.

Now a shaman and healer in her own right, Vixen who was once Corin learns that the one human who mattered to her in her previous life, then a fellow University student, has come into possession of an old shyani book, and the more fanatical shyani and weyres will stop at nothing to reclaim it and punish Jared. Even though it means going back into the lowlands and facing Jared as a woman, she can’t bear to just look the other way. This should be a short visit, just long enough to see the book into the proper hands and make sure Jared will not be killed for having it, and then she can return to the shyani community that has accepted her as their shaman. And, of course, her feline best friend Dayr insists on coming with her.

But Jared is now a Lord, with considerable wealth and power, and his response to her presence isn’t one she expected. After years living with the shyani, she sees everything around her from a new perspective, and that makes it difficult to keep to the plan of making as few waves as possible. As an honoured guest in a highborn house, with only Jared aware that she has ever been anyone else, Vixen finds herself questioning where she belongs: with Dayr and the shyani, who accept her gender without question but have to make allowances for her differences, or with humans, in the culture she grew up in even though her past would mean a major scandal?

*** Trigger warning: there are scenes of Vixen's previous life, which include some difficult moments and culminate in an (obviously unsuccessful) attempt at suicide before she finds her true self and a better life. Please be careful! *** <<less
