What happens when two strangers on a wellness app start receiving videos meant for the other person's therapist? // "Welcome to LifeSync™, the state-of-the-art wellness app trusted by celebrities, Fortune 500 CEOs, and people like you. Our AI-powered accountability system pairs you with the perfect partner to help you achieve your goals. Because nobody should have to do life alone." When her company's health initiative forces Riley Markle to download a trendy mental health app, she fills out the onboarding survey without much thought, expecting to get paired with a virtual gym buddy who'll send thumbs-up emojis twice a week. Instead, she gets paired with Joe, whose wellness concern of Compulsive Behaviors is flagged by the AI system as a perfect match for Riley. Riley resolves to complete her month of check-ins and be done with it--until a glitch in the app sends Joe's embarrassing voice memos to Riley instead of his therapist. What happens when your most embarrassing confessions end up in the inbox of a complete stranger? Both people might just end up getting the help they need. // 🏆 High Rankings: #1 in LITERARY #1 in QUICKREAD #1 in NEWENGLAND #3 in EPISTOLARY #14 in SHORTCHAPTERS (out of 38,000 stories) #87 in ROMCOM (out of 35,000 stories) #147 in ROMANTIC (out of 86,000 stories) Updated November 2025

[Watty 2025 Winner] [Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...

As a reclusive author who dedicates all her time to the books she publishes, Detta feels something is missing. Writing was supposed to be an escape. A way for her to leave the bland life she was living. Detta never meant to be a part of it. After falling asleep on an open document, Detta finds herself in a world so foreign, yet so familiar. It's the very same world that she created. Though, unfortunately for Detta, the novel is no breezy summer romance. There, a ruthless tyrant is raiding the lands in search of his fated bond. With the author's unexpected appearance, he believes that it is her. His revelation derails the novel's plot, and it's up to Detta to make sure that it gets back on the right track. This tyrant has no idea that he is meant to die. Or so the story goes. 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 - 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬: Strong Language, Explicit Mature/Sexual Content, Violence, and Gore.

**This book is not the final version; this is my non-edited rough draft. **** In the forgotten town of Grayer's Hollow, silence is sacred-because when it breaks, something wakes. When twelve-year-old Caleb Vayne vanishes from a school parking lot without a trace, grief coils around the community like fog on the moors. But five days later, Caleb returns... alone, barefoot, and blank-eyed, humming a tune no one's ever heard before-and no one wants to hear again. He speaks rarely. Sleeps even less. And when people start dying in the ways they fear most, some begin to suspect the boy who came back isn't quite the boy who left. Now, retired criminal profiler Avery Holt, haunted by her own demons, is pulled into a case where the lines between psychology and the supernatural are razor-thin. Teaming up with local sheriff David Rourke, she begins to unravel a conspiracy tied to the town's long-buried secret: a stretch of forest known as The Hollow, a place the old folks say hums when it's hungry. But what no one realizes is that Caleb didn't just survive the Hollow. He brought something back with him. And it only protects him.

Seventeen-year-old Aviva Osherov, the daughter of a poor rabbi in Chernigov, has never fit the life chosen for her. She is expected to marry young, obey without question, and accept a future she does not want. But Aviva hungers for things forbidden to a girl of her world- to study Torah, to choose her own path, and to dream beyond the Pale of Settlement. Rumors of pogroms sweep through nearby towns, casting fear over her community like a shadow that refuses to lift. And when Aviva crosses paths with Nikolai, a quiet Orthodox Christian boy who sees her humanity instead of her religion, everything becomes more dangerous. He saves her once. She trusts him once. And suddenly the one person she should fear becomes the one she cannot let go of. Their forbidden bond risks her father's honor, her sister's future, and the safety of their entire household. Whispers turn to threats. Threats turn to violence. And when the pogrom finally reaches Chernigov, Aviva must face an impossible choice: Stay with the boy who taught her what freedom feels like... or flee to America to save the only family she has left. A story of courage, forbidden love, and a girl who refuses to be silent beneath a darkening sky.

My original anthology of unsettling flash fiction. Short and 'sickly'-sweet chapters. Stories range from: ✓ ageless Russian high schoolers, ✓ a guy that dies every time he travels between dimensions ✓ star-walkers who wear the dead, and ✓ a bio-tech virus that consumes animals and humans There's even a 3-part horror ARG (Alternate Reality Game) about a Nature Reserve where children go missing and come back differently after interacting with [REDACTED] Primates. Oh, and there's a drawing of a not-frog that promises he's a real frog. Allegedly. 🐸
