[Blurb]
Kyle McMcoy’s world was shattered when his parents and sister were killed during an incident with a rogue AI. However, an unexpected journey into the virtual world of gaming helped heal those wounds. Being a long-time player of Phantasmal Realms, Kyle is set to be one of the first to experience this next generation in FIVRMMOs.

Captain Collin Holmes served his country over 40 years, stationed in his hometown of Chicago. With his buddies, Stephanson, Marcus, Travis, and Burt, the members of The Mad Ghosts battalion were the tip of the spear for every conflict this last half-century. Having all retired, they bought their way to the front of the line to Neurolink’s newest game, Fantasy. Join Collin, aka Barricade, as he and his marines bring their real-world experience to virtual reality.

Samantha Brudt was just another victim of the government’s forced retirement policy. With her loved ones gone, she decided to spend the rest of her life in a medical retirement capsule facility playing the virtual game, Fantasy. But a simple act of kindness re-directs Sam, aka Ginka from a normal starter island to an advanced, bustling city. Being the only human in the great Kingdom of Ravaryn, Ginka tries to open a bakery while helping out a race of Demons in a city full of Angels.

I wondered. What if I were a character in that novel?... more>>

...hypothetically speaking, knowing it was me, I would probably be the one to die in the very first scenario.

Still, that didn't stop me from dreaming. And so that resulted in these very words being written down. Additionally, there was always a philosophy that I knew was impossible for everyone, but still wanted.

I wanted a happy ending.

Disclaimer: My story has hidden meanings behind my writing, which may seem like obvious plot holes, but is deliberately there for realism/story. One main example is the mc's behaviour.

This novel is also available on wattpad, webnovel, and royal road.

Original Novel <<less

Nikola is an NPC in The World of Wills, a video game where players can feel sensations as if they were truly there. She leads a life of bloodshed and murder - that is, until one day she wakes up sapient. Just as she begins thinking real, non-scripted thoughts and making connections, she and the players in the game are told that if they die in the game, they die in real life - and it's time to get killing.... more>>

But what of Nikola, the emerging AI consciousness? How does she win in a game that can only end in her being wiped from existence at the end of it all?

Updates once or twice a day until the story hits the same chapter on all platforms.

----------------------------------------------

Cutting to Life is a slow-burn LitRPG with a villainous (later anti-hero, or maybe still villainous, haha) female lead.

It's told from the perspective of Nikola, an NPC within the World of Wills who's become sapient and is now mysteriously able to play the game as a PC. It's quite light for a LitRPG, but the system and stats become more of a focus later when Nikola herself can access them.

The story gradually builds into a Battle Royale where the players' lives are on the line (if you die in the game, you die in real life), and only one party of savvy adventurers can win. They'll have to spend their time and stats wisely as dungeons promising rare gear float down from the sky - but is a legendary sword worth killing someone for, knowing they'll stay dead forever?

- This story is told in third person, past tense.
- This is a slow-burn LitRPG that spends a lot of time establishing its setting and characters, because I believe this will make for a better payoff in the end. As such, the Battle Royale doesn't start until chapter 30 or so.
- Chapters are anywhere between 800 words and 3000 words long.
- Book cover by Vixeona.

Cutting to Life is also being posted on RR, SPB and Tapas.
Thank you sincerely for reading. <<less

A lot of people think about how they'd go about exploiting a system if they got transported into a game-like world. Others wish that they'd get transported to another world with a cheat and steamroll everything while living out their wildest dreams.... more>>

Can't say I didn't consider both. And I can't say that I didn't consider writing stories with those premises.

What I *can* say as that I sure as hell never expected to actually get tossed into that situation myself.

Dammit. I knew I shouldn't have written those LitRPG system notes... And what's the point of getting cheats if everyone has one and it's still just barely enough to get by?

Hopefully reading all those web novels in the past is enough to keep myself alive until I can figure out how the hell I got here...

A self-indulgent LitRPG I'm writing to get out of my system and warm up for my main story. Self-insert, though with certain traits magnified and others minimized.

I'll try not to make it a complete power trip... maybe. :shrug: <<less

[BOOK 1: The Spiral]... more>>

Seventeen-year-old Phoenix Newman is mysteriously thrown into another dimension at the behest of God. Within, there is one goal: reach the Spiral first or die trying. Simple enough, right? Except he isn't alone; there are thousands of other players, each harnessing the power that God bestowed upon them, doing their absolute best to reach the same objective.

To solve the mystery of this world, Phoenix must first look to the future, to the creator, to the omnipotent, and then to his past, to his family, and to the friends with whom he shared his joy.

But one memory stands out among the rest—that of a teenage girl. His best friend—Alex Ramiro. He needs to find her . . . but the thing is . . . there can only be ONE winner, and he has absolutely no clue where to look . . . <<less

Alex is a normal guy who is a little bit rich, a little bit depressed, a little paranoid, and a lot more horny. An incident at the ATM drags him into a killing game called UNET with his former high school crush Tara who is a regular girl who is a little bit broke, a little bit suicidal, a little obsessive, and a lot more deadly. He strikes a deal, and a deal isn't without its advantages ;)... more>>

[A/n: Do note, this is not a LitRPG but the setting just features a game-like world. This novel adopts heavily on some of my favourite anime tropes like Hunter x Hunter, Fairy tail and Naruto that have inspired me to start on this project! :D Also posted on Royal Road!] <<less

It's a funny story about how this came to be. I have a good friend who is really into fanfiction, I'm a close friend of the family and my friends teenage daughter wrote herself into a web novel to come out to her parents. It's not posted anywhere because she is really shy, but she let me read it. I am a huge patron of the arts, so I was very moved by her whole story. I thought it was an amazing way to overcome the stressful issue of coming out to your parents. Ever since then she always complains how there are not enough decent girl/girl stories out there. So, I asked her to recommend a few to me she liked and tried to write this for her. I pulled a lot of inspiration from two of the stories that I enjoyed myself.

I don't really get it but it Looks like I got reincarnated into another world by Ashi and Boosted Restart by Teanam.
I thought both were great and I decided to try to write a story my friend would enjoy based on her and my tastes. I have a background in writing but nothing like this, so I decided to give it a try. It has been years since I have written anything and It's always important in the arts to try to break out of your comfort zone and try new things. I have already written over a hundred thousand words and just need to edit everything. So, although I pulled inspiration for a few facets make no mistake I have written my own story that I hope people will enjoy for years to come. <<less

One day towers fell from the sky.
White, their exterior smooth.
The End of the World, the Apocalypse, the Judgement Day.
Mankind was in a panic.
Food was bought in bulks, people were killed because of the greed of others.
It was chaos, almost like hell on earth.
Until, the towers broadcast a message.... more>>

"Humanity's Judgement, Start!"

(P.S.: My first language isn't English) <<less

Celestial Elves, a race of Celestial beings, bargained with the world leaders of Earth to not destroy the planet if they could offer them an appreciable number of prisoners as compensation for not destroying their world.... more>>

The leaders gathered around and agreed to their terms. After all, what could be better than such a deal. These were just a bunch of cutthroat criminals and misfits.

A thorn to the society at large. The world leaders would be glad to let these bands of miscreants leave their homeland as soon as possible.

And so a deal was struck with the Celestial beings, with the inhabitants of the world at large oblivious to this knowledge except for the world leaders of course.

A total of 80,000 criminals charged with a death sentence would be enough to placate the Celestials urge for destruction.

And here’s where our protagonist comes into play.

Ace Tempest, an eighteen year old undergraduate, was incarcerated for the murder of his father who in turn was at fault for the domestic violence he implements while at home.

Thrown into a prison facility just like the rest of the criminals, Ace had no choice but to take part in this survival game where players who suffered in-game deaths would surely follow a similar fate in real life.

But that wasn't all, since the players were in another world, the inhabitants of Earth had already forgotten the players even existed. Now what will he do since both his mother and sister had forgotten all about him?

Will he strive to win the 1,000,000,000 dollar reward or will something totally unexpected occur to him in the game.

If you don't wanna miss it then come and join the fun. Thanks.
