For the Slates, demon slaying is the family business. And eighteen-year-old Perrin has fully embraced her chosen profession. But when her sister, fifteen-year-old Ace, declares she's ready to join the cause, Perrin has her reservations. First of all, the case she's picked involves not one, but three demonic foes. A tricky proposition for any new slayer. Second, something eerily familiar lurks at the heart of the infested town. A red-eyed presence that may or may not be the demon who murdered their brother a decade ago. Third, Ace refuses to listen. To reason, to orders, to sense. And in this line of work, one false move can get you killed. Along with their exasperated father and an overeager grocery store clerk, Perrin and Ace set out to raise a little hell and bag a trio of baddies. But demons aren't the only ones to fear. A secret society has discovered their connection to an ancient bet. One involving their very souls. And as enemies close in on all sides, the Slates will need to trust each other and their training to stay one step ahead of the coming storm. Set against the backdrop of 2010 Middle America, Slate Gray is a nostalgic tale of demons, driving and destiny. Will Perrin sacrifice herself to protect her sister? Will Ace make a deal with the devil to bring their brother back? Only time will tell.

Cowboys and dinosaurs. Where the western world had saurian denizens as normal as six-shooters. ═══════ 𝙿𝚁𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙴𝚆 Randall's scowl deepened. "It seems we differ in our understanding of what constitutes cruelty to God's creatures. I have no desire to subjugate nature through force when harmony can be cultivated through ethical practices. Our goal is to empower mankind through merit, not shows of dominance." Shaw's smile tightened slightly at the rebuke. "You paint me as some brutal slavedriver. Where does your morality stand with the hadrosaurs that pull our carriages? The Centrosaurus' ploughing your fields without pay or vacation, helpless before any whip or spur? Even the natives have already made use of Pachies (Pachycephalosaurus) to safeguard their land. A few scars mean little to creatures that dedicate their lives to man's service. These dinosaurs depend utterly on humans for survival. We could shoot them all and make this a man's world when we wanted. Oh, that's right! We did." ═══════ 𝙰𝙲𝙷𝙸𝙴𝚅𝙴𝙼𝙴𝙽𝚃𝚂 x12🏆 Contests awarded x2⭐ FEATURED on @ReshapeIt and @HistoricalFiction ═══════ 𝙷𝙸𝙶𝙷𝙴𝚂𝚃 𝚁𝙰𝙽𝙺𝚂 #1 | Old West (2025) #1 | 19th Century (2025) #1 | 1880 (2024-2025) #1 | Animal Cruelty (2023-2025) #1 | English Literature (2023-2025) #1 | Speculative Fiction (2023) ═══════ Written and published: 5 July 2023 - 6 Oct 2024 Edited: 27 May 2025 - Present *33 Chapters total!

Illustrated story! Moonwatcher realizes that her choices, which affect her entire future, have not been what she wants and longs for. Where does she belong? Will she always be an outsider? She has no visions of the dangers that await her as she sets out to find answers. Winter has lost hope for the dragon he loves and focuses on his other passion; to scavengers. However, a surprising event leads him to face his past and gives a new direction to his life. Family has always been his worst fear, but he could not have imagined even in his nightmares the situations he will have to face on his journey. This story takes place about 3 years after book number 15. Contains characters and references to events from the three Wings of Fire book series, including the Dragonslayer. So if you haven't read the books, this story might spoil their plot. English is not my language, so you are more than welcome to report corrections in the comments or by email (kuunnousu1 @ gmail.com -remove the spaces). The original story, dragon tribes of Pyrrhia and Pantala, and the story characters are the property of Tui T. Sutherland. Also includes my own characters. I wanted to make the story "real", as faithful as possible to the world created by Tui Sutherland and the original stories. I hope you enjoy the story!

For Rhea Stoneheart, she will do anything for her kingdom. She will even join forces with her enemy. For Alaric Nighshade, the world outside of his kingdom hasn't treated him kindly, and to use magic is to inherently be evil, or at least to people like Rhea. For once, he wants to be the good guy. In the end, sometimes it takes a dragon threatening everything you know, to be able to see someone in a different light. - Updating Mondays #192 in warrior #126 in fantasyromance This story is completed, I'm just updating slowly. There will be 25 chapters, so don't worry about Arcanum Heart going on hiatus. Thank you for reading!
