Everyone's addicted to coffee. It's the one thing keeping us from losing our minds in traffic, at work, in line behind the person who can't decide between oat milk or almond milk. I'm Jessica Perez. My family literally built their empire on the stuff. And up until recently, I thought the worst thing our coffee could do was keep you up at night. I was wrong. Something is in the beans. Something that turns your average, overcaffeinated, mildly-irritable person into something... feral. Bloodshot eyes. Popping veins. Zero impulse control. And a really strong urge to kill everyone around them. It started with my brother. Then a truck driver. Then a 'Karen'. Then a rooftop full of people in Miami. Now it's everywhere. Why? And how do I stop it?

Nightmare at 200 Miles - Inspired by The Twilight Zone classic, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet. Orbiting 200 miles above Earth, Adrian Cole thought he knew the dangers of space. But when he glimpses something crawling along the station's exterior, no one believes him. As paranoia spirals into terror, Adrian realizes the creature is real... and it has singled him out. Trapped, isolated, and facing the void, he must confront a relentless alien threat before it's too late. A pulse-pounding sci-fi thriller of suspense, isolation, and survival in the darkness of space.

A man walked into a haunted forest, destroyed the evidence, and came home safe. The problem is - something came home with him. And the thing he left behind is still waiting to find out what did.

When God grows bored of humanity, He changed the rules. Ten thousand people are granted unimaginable power. Some become heroes. Others become monsters. Three teenagers: Max, Oscar, and Lebron, are caught in the middle. Labelled "Godborn", hunted as EPs, and worshipped as Heralds, they start as reckless vigilantes and grow into the world's last defenders. Because power doesn't make you chosen. What you do with it does. 🏅Awards🏅 #105 in superhero (22 Feb 2026) #73 in superpowers (9 March 2026)

Six hearts. One wasteland. And the dead remember everything. The world ended, but the living kept loving. In a land where the rot has a mind of its own, six broken souls claw their way toward hope - or toward each other's destruction. A butcher who forgot how to feel. A bystander who never learned how. A prophet who mistakes obsession for truth. A liar who can't outrun her past. A smiler with blood on her tongue. A scavenger with a desperate heart. The dead are changing. Faster. Smarter. Watching. And in the red hush before the final collapse, something old is waiting to be born.

Nyx had her future mapped out success, ambition, and no room for love. Especially not for him. Everything changes when she's assigned to a project tied to a haunted past. Forced to confront her deepest fears, she finds an unlikely ally in the very man she's been avoiding, the one determined to stay by her side no matter how much she resists. But in a place where not everything is what it seems... can she trust her heart, or will it lead her somewhere she can't escape?

Some houses keep secrets. Others manufacture them. Glasshouse is a psychological slow burn about silence, damage, and the cost of watching without intervening. New chapters every Saturday and Monday

A fairy-tale-esque short story, which deliberately adopts folklore-like writing, using personified cosmic forces to explore love as mutual illumination rather than possession. No placement, but this tale has gotten a 95/100 in the Triquetra Awards Short Story category!
