From ostracization by the people you love the most, to blindly embarking on relationships that hurt more than heal, Some Sing Some Scream entails tales of lives that are messy, wretched and brimming with exquisite desperation. Cover designed by @x_luminous_x

Chrissy McAllister is tired of wolves. They're everywhere in Wolf Creek, Montana, where she's born and raised. They roam the plains outside her family's farm, and they're even the mascot of the town's university. She can't wait to leave the town and the wolves behind forever to attend grad school. However, her father's fragile mental state, which is exacerbated by the flock of wolves infringing on their lands, is making her second-guess her decision. When a wolf saunters into the coffee shop where she works, Chrissy is more annoyed than scared. But panic sets in when the animal won't leave. That's when Enid Sinclair-a grad student in town for a research project-steps into the shop. Using her knowledge of wolves, the focus of her studies, she convinces the animal to leave. Charmed by her savior, Chrissy can't keep away from Enid. They grow close, going on hikes and attending the town's wolf festival together. Chrissy is smitten. But she also can't let go of the suspicion that something isn't quite adding up about Enid's presence in Wolf Creek. Why is she so fascinated by wolves? Why is she able to communicate with them so well? And why won't she agree to go on a date during the full moon?

Sell-out stadium shows, private jets, adoring fans. Award-winning rappers enjoy life. Not newbie rapper Kit Marlowe. With a few minor awards under his belt, all Kit has ever wanted is to make music, but his synesthesia -- the ability to see sounds -- confines him to his grandmother's annex apartment and to his small circle of trusted musical friends. When the boss of Kit's record label dies in mysterious circumstances, Kit plunges deep into Maria City's sprawling gang underworld to uncover the truth behind his death, but both his sleuthing and his fledgling music career are threatened by Mack, cantankerous drummer for the world's biggest metal band, and Kit's bitterest musical rival. Inked, pierced and too uncouth for Kit's sensitivities, Mack clashes head-to-head with him for the title of Best Band at the world-famous ARIA Music Awards, until Kit realizes that Mack has a profound and beautiful effect on his synesthesia. As the killer takes another victim, Kit finds himself struggling to separate his music life from his personal life as he and Mack become entangled with the murder case, and with each other. 12 June: Changed this to MATURE because this book now has a content warning: contains depictions of sexual intercourse.

Everyone can read minds except for Ethan Langdon. And Ethan Langdon has the dumbest (and cutest!) thoughts Lukas Hoffmann has ever heard. ____ Lukas Hoffman's life in Brambleburg is about as boring as you'd expect for a town where everyone can read minds. He's used to his routine of dusting the LPs at the record store where he works and helping out his grandma around the house. Nothing in Brambleburg changes. No one in Brambleburg changes. Until Ethan Langdon stumbles in with the soggy remnants of a paper map, asking for the quickest route to Berlin. Ethan, it turns out, doesn't have telepathy, and as aggravatingly inane as his thoughts are, Lukas hasn't felt the excitement of meeting a stranger since.... well, ever. And the more Lukas listens, the more he starts enjoying Ethan's cute thoughts about life, the universe, and Lukas's dimples. ____ Might bring to mind: "Cherry Magic" but set in a fictive European town where everyone except the love interest can read minds. ____ Cover by @mygoodbones ____ Written for the Open Novella Contest 2024 using prompts 8, 75, 82, and 85. 8.

Inside everyone, there are two opposing forces whose interaction and perpetual motion generates life: Push and Pull. In most people, these two forces are at balance, creating harmony within and outside the body. But in some rare individuals this balance is not a stable one, tipping towards one force over the other. Those with a stronger Push are called Anima, while those with a stronger Pull are called Animus. Collectively, these individuals are known as the Imbalanced. And though their condition gives them great power, it also comes at a great cost to themselves and those around them. They have existed for millennia, but the world is changing and their very existence is being threatened. As this tug of war between Balanced and Imbalanced, Anima and Animus, grows, everyone is forced to pick a side. But who will be left standing at the end? · · ─────── ·𖥸· ─────── · · GENRE: Action-Fantasy (set in an industrialised world) THEMES: Prejudice and bigotry, civil rights, rebellion, solidarity, trauma, identity and purpose LGBTQ+: Multiple (bisexual, gay, trans, gender fluid, asexual main characters) This book is, for now, merely a collection of excerpts I've written for this fantasy world, though ones that will hopefully one day turn into a full story.

"You have somewhere to be? A dirty bathroom wall you haven't fucked against yet? A dick you haven't choked on?" "Are you jealous? Must be hard being a virgin at your age." His smirk drops into the glare I've been craving all night. Jackpot. 🎸 🎸 🎸 Liam lives for chaos - too much booze, too many hookups, and an obsession with winning the band competition that even his band members deem unhealthy. Vincent lives for control - perfect riffs, strict rules, and having to interact with the idiots of the world as little as possible. Oh, and winning, of course. The problem? After Liam accidentally kisses him because his drunk brain thought it was a good idea, they can't stay away from each other. Every gig, every backstage run-in, every fight is just another excuse to turn insults into kisses, and rivalry into something much more complicated. While Liam and Vincent are busy trying to out-snark, out-play, and out-fuck each other, both are still carrying scars-from broken families, bad relationships, and choices that won't stop haunting them. How long can they keep telling themselves: "We're only fucking" before they have to realize it turned into so much more than that. 🔥 Enemies-to-lovers (and with benefits) 🔥 Queer band drama 🔥 Sexual tension you can cut with a guitar string

A collection of short stories inspired by stories I used to hear as a child whenever the power went out, now retold in whatever way I find interesting. Some will be paranormal/fantastical in their nature, others set in the mordern world. I hope these can provide some comfort, entertainment, nostalgia or even inspiration for your own stories.

Rivers had no idea vampires were real...until one particularly handsome blood-sucker named Keenan Wargrave made him his thrall. Fifteen years later, Rivers works at Keenan's vampire-exclusive nightclub, serving as bartender, attack dog, and occasional rat. The hours are late. The clientele suck. But at least the job keeps his daughter, Cleo, safe from monsters. Until the monsters start turning their fangs on each other. An old foe from Keenan's past returns with a vengeance and a thirst that human blood can no longer satisfy. Now vampires are the prey. With Keenan's empire in peril and the immortal lives of the Vermilion's vampire staff at stake, Rivers has to pull some overtime to keep his daughter, his vampire, and his last shreds of humanity safe. The night shift's always been a real bitch, but now it's about to bite. Hard. 🐀 Cover art drawn by me.

❝ Let us dive in deep, past our smiling reflections. ❞ This is a collection of my occasional forays into poetry, mostly revolving around themes of duality, identity and connection (to others or ourselves), but told through different and even unusual perspectives. A lot of these pieces were written for prompts, which will be specified at the beginning of each respective poem, so you can also use this as a prompt book and write your own interpretations of them (feel free to message me a link if you do!). ____________________________________________ 🏅 Winner of the "Best Poetry Collection" Category | Ashes And Ink-Poetry Contest 2025 🏅 Winner of the "Poetry" Category | The Crescent Awards 2025 🏅 Round 3 Qualifier in the "Poetry" Category | AMBYS 2025
