Something has already happened to Hannah. She just doesn't know what it is yet. What begins as a quiet sense that something is off quickly unravels into something far more precise- controlled, intentional... and impossible to explain. The truth, when it comes, doesn't feel like an answer. It feels like a decision that was made without her. And whatever was set in motion isn't finished with her yet. -Updated weekly on Sundays with the occasional mid-week surprise.

This story is fully completed offline. Updates on Wattpad will be every Monday and Friday. *** In the fractured margins of a dying galaxy, mercenary captain Riven Korda leads the crew of the Ragged Vow through the lawless void. Haunted by a vanished sister and a memory-eating past, Riven takes contracts no one else dares-wreck dives, recursion retrievals, and corpse-code bounties. When a dying archivist implants her with a fragment of forbidden code, Riven becomes the target of recursion cults, rogue AIs, and a Union conspiracy older than the black signal itself. As her mind begins to fracture, and reality twists beneath her feet, Riven must follow the signal trail toward the mythical Abysmal Spire-a place where the past isn't dead, only weaponized. ***** Copyright 2025.

What Remains Upon Arrival is a psychological sci-fi thriller about identity, manipulation, and the question of what makes someone human.

In a world of superheroes and supervillains, citizens are overlooked and ignored. Damage to their selves or property is seen as secondary compared to the lives that the heroes lead. And the people who suffer the most are the ones no one talks about. In this world of extra normal people, it is a rulebook by a normal person that brings hope back to the people. Ruby Davis (as she is known at work) has made it her year-long mission to help people avoid the dangers of supervillains (without putting herself in danger of course). The question is, how long can she keep it up without attracting attention to herself?

After surviving a brutal war of annihilation against a mysterious and implacable foe, Captain Dylan Cook finds the only solace is at the bottom of a bottle. With his beloved ship, Magpie, sacrificed for the ultimate victory and all his friends either dead or spread out among the Five Systems, he tries to live his life in solitary peace. Until the day an almost literal ghost arrives offering him a new life, a new but familiarly named ship and a crew of misfits and fading memories. When their first job as cargo haulers turns out to be a lot more complicated than they could ever imagine, the crew find themselves in a race to fulfil their obligation while trying to avoid a new war. Only, this time, it won't be a war against faceless enemies, but against old friends and former colleagues. A sci-fi blockbuster in the vein of Firefly/Serenity and The Expanse.
