[New chapters every Thursday at 5PM Eastern] In a world where Olympus sits on the UN, vampires vacation in Macao, and Blockbuster delivers to Camelot, professional superheroes abound. More glamorous than Hollywood, exciting than pro sports, and profitable than both times ten, it's the industry everyone wants in on, and Maris Greensley is no exception. She wants in so badly, she agrees to work a whole year under superpowered criminal Deadline just to get a shot. Maris will break into superheroics, even if she has to break laws to do it. Only, one problem: Deadline is having none of it. A premiere mercenary in the city's intergang power struggles, the only thing he can't terminate is Maris's employment. The standoff begins. As fights with spell-slinging gangsters, gwerewolves, and interdimensional hell beasts break out, Deadline aims to break the spirit countless rejections couldn't crush. Will he drive Maris out? Will Maris outlast Deadline? Or will time spent together show that Maris's dream of working with heroes might be closer than she thinks?

When astronaut Nova Vance crash-lands on an uncharted planet, she finds herself thrust into an alien world unlike anything humanity has ever encountered. The planet's surface shimmers with impossible colors, its atmosphere teeming with energy that defies explanation. But the deeper mystery lies within Nova herself. As soon as she awakens, her perceptions begin to unravel. Vivid hallucinations blur the line between reality and imagination, and the planet seems to respond to her presence, its strange environment shifting and coming alive in ways she cannot comprehend. When a telepathic alien guide emerges, offering cryptic insights into the planet's collective consciousness, Nova must decide whether to trust the alien-or her own fractured mind. Is the planet trying to communicate? Or is she losing her grip on reality, the victim of an otherworldly neurochemical influence? In a journey that defies logic and bends time, Nova ventures deeper into the planet's mysteries, confronting her own fears, memories, and the nature of existence itself. By the time she returns to orbit, one question will remain: was any of it real? A mind-bending tale of survival and first contact, The Kaleidoscope Effect explores the boundaries of perception, the nature of consciousness, and the infinite possibilities of the unknown.

Commander Nia, of The USS Nebulus, follows a cosmic trail to find her captain, who is kidnapped by a Type V civilization in the Epsilon Carinae System of the Carina-Sagittarius arm of the Milky Way Galaxy. She descends into an H II cloud, breath bated, unaware of what awaits her on the other side. What she finds sends a shockwave that shudders her very pillars of existence. *Fun Fact* This story began as a short story I wrote a while back. But then I thought, what the hell, couldn't hurt to try and make it a ten-volume novella. That's why the first part is quite long spanning about 5,000 words. But the third part onwards I have eased into a more Wattpady...format. So enjoy! And guys, don't forget to comment and vote!
