If you had the ability to hear people’s thoughts, what would you do?... more>>

After Masato Keita gets into a car accident, he spends a year in a coma. When he wakes up, he finds out that he has gained a rather strange ability: he can hear people’s thoughts when he touches them.

Kurosawa Rintarou is a rather simple-minded man, who prefers to smile and be happy. Despite the hardships he had to endure, he managed to maintain a positive outlook on life.

One can hear people’s thoughts upon touch, the other doesn’t have anything to hide. One is an introvert with an honest mouth, the other is an extrovert with an honest heart.

When someone manages to slip into your heavily guarded sanctuary you call heart, does that mean you are too weak or that he is too powerful?
Read to find out how these two, seemingly opposite personalities, interact and grow closer to each other.

In this urban fantasy novella, you will follow Julius. He sells water filtering systems in Algeria. There is a slight hitch with that, the systems are knockoffs. So, one night, a vampire local comes to him, and attacks him in retribution. That sends Julius on a journey to find aristocratic vampires, who can show him the ropes. How come the vampire who turned him can't do it? ... more>>

A vampire turning another into a vampire is deadly for them. Follow Julius as he travels, and ends up in Hungary, where he meets Ferenc. The very picture of an aristocratic vampire. There is another problem in Julius's life, though. He is fat, and Ferenc is so out of his league, that it is not even funny.

The novella has been written in 1st person, by the perspective of a blogger narrator. It is complete. The updates will be daily.

Disclaimer: This is a comedic piece. Nothing inside of it has been written with the intent to insult someone. Not that I did more than point out some things about my own country, and some commonly known stereotypes. <<less

But all that changes when she encounters a powerful witch from another dimension named Sumire Shakespeare, who spirits her away to the world of Phantasia, a place that feels as if it was lifted straight from the pages of Jackie's favorite fantasy novel.

Why does Sumire want Jackie specifically to become a warrior? And what is Phantasia's connection to the magical land featured in Jackie's favorite author's books? As Sumire and her maids teach Jackie how to channel an alternate-persona known as a "kinkind", the answers to these questions and more become ever clearer as Jackie and her kinkind find themselves fighting for their lives on this dangerous fantasy stage, where all the demons and witches are merely players...

You ever play the game, The Long Dark?... more>>

GO play it. It is by hinterland games. It is an AWESOME game, if you like frozen, FPS survival games. The focus is on survival. It is a harsh game where you are the last surviving man or woman on a frozen earth after the sun goes crazy and destroys all technology with continuous EMP bursts. It is like wandering a beautiful watercolor painting that periodically tries to murder you.

I absolutely loved the game.

I put in over 2000 hours and survived with one character for 1000 days. I put in a mod that stopped the earth from rotating so the sun never rose again and it got down to -100 degrees Celsius. It is one of the few games where the harder you make it, the more fun it is. Well, it is for me.

So I started writing a story from the point of view of my character. There is one building that is the HARDEST base to have. The Quonset Garage. It is surrounded by violence, but if you are good with a bow, it is actually surrounded by MEAT. The saying in the game goes, The wolves want to eat you, the bears want to kill you, but the moose want you to SUFFER.

The Quonset Garage has all three.

But as I wrote the story, it evolved and changed and became sort of philosophical collection of musings. The Origin Of The Quonset Manager became a sort of Eldritch Horror story over time with all sorts of things and ideas and concepts. There is a reason the story took such a dark turn which I explain half way through, but in this version, I will move why I wrote the story to the end. It is a bit dated, but I want you to get the full effect. I won't edit the story. I am including it, errors and all, as is.

However, the story also has a number of, shall we say, Foundational Myths of the Eldritch-Verse.

When you read this I want you to look at it from the point of view as if you were a traveler. A transmigrator bouncing through life after life, traveling through a strange and bizarre cosmos, just trying to figure out what is going on in the bigger picture. Then, you find this collection of papers. They seem to be i no particular order, but what you DO know is, the local government is trying very hard to destroy every copy of this collection.

Someone doesn't want the truth known.

And so, having visited a number of shady and unusual bookstores, you find a copy of this... manuscript. he person selling it simply explains it is cursed and that you shouldn't take it. When you insist, he asks what you are willing to pay and takes it without haggling. Upon you paying the agreed upon price, he immediately pushed you out the door, turns the sign around to read, 'CLOSED', and turns off the light. You retire to the home of your most recently occupied body and find a quiet spot to consume your newly acquired prize. As you read, at first it seems to be nothing more than the ramblings of a madman, but over time, he reveals knowledge that, simply put...

He should not have. <<less

Lost in the depths of the Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park, Ranger Kates meets a mysterious hermit who may very well have a connection with the decade-old legend of the Ghost of Ontario.... more>>

***

Ranger Kate wants only one thing: to see her son, whom she lost to a canoe accident ten years ago. The opportunity comes when she and her partner, Ranger Amelia, attend the 24-Hour Ghost of Ontario Challenge in the Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park. Legend has it that a ghost haunts it with his mysterious lullaby, "Lucilla", and the only way to connect with him is for two individuals to brave the lakes.

Ihaan never expected to find Ranger Kate on Red Squirrel Lake, said to be the birthplace of the ghost. He and his eagle friend, Ro, band together to win her trust, which is crucial for Ihaan's Guardian Trial. It's the only way for him to learn whether he is truly dead or not.

Fate turns to reality, and suddenly, the legend of the ghost is more real than Ihaan and Kate think. What will happen when the Spirit Animals come and try to interfere with their long-lost memories? Will Kate and Ihaan defeat them, or will they lose themselves to the hands of Ontario's Beast?
