Book III of SEIZE THE DAY, Winner of the 2014 Wattys Instant Addiction Award. If you haven't read Book I or Book II, SEIZE THE DAY and CHAINS OF FATE, please do! There are spoilers ahead! **** THE SHADOWS ARE DESCENDING. After the dreadful battle with the Drakain Therin, Lannie Brackenbury found out that a malicious entity known as the Shadow is bent on destroying Etheia. With the rumor of its origin in Balua, she sets out for the desert country with her allies in the hope of finding the Shadow. Along the way, she must also convince the countries of Balua, Drush, and Tekin to abolish slavery. But what Lannie soon finds out is that abolishing slavery in Nor sent a shock wave through Etheia. Hatred for the Harbingers runs rampant, and when she meets the ambitious leader of an underground syndicate that fights against slavery, she soon understands that abolishing slavery will be harder than she ever imagined. With the oppressive Shadow lingering behind everything she does, Lannie experiences destructive, terrifying visions about Eden's past, and she soon realizes that Eden knows more about the Shadow than she lets on. Lannie doesn't know who to trust any longer. Even Prince Titus seems to be hiding something, and when she discovers a devastating secret about her future with him, it will tear her world apart. And Lannie must decide if her world is worth saving. **** Cover: Model © Angie and Jamie via lisajen-stock.deviantart.com; Background and Circle © Evey-V via evey-v.deviantart.com; edited by me

| Previously Featured | | Book One of the Moon Chronicles | "To hear, one must be silent." The Power of the tongue and intelligence of a human being is what makes them different from God's other creations. It is what makes them powerful, it is what makes the human being rule every other creation. But they forget to listen and that is what will lead them to their doom ------------------------ Ayah Beizeen is a sixteen-year-old village girl with a peaceful and content life. She has loving parents, a supportive elder brother and an adorable younger brother. But she is different: Ayah was born mute. She didn't cry when she was delivered and hasn't uttered a word ever since. Sometimes, she wishes she could - she was envious of everyone who could convey their emotions through words, for she has no other option but to keep them bottled up inside her. However, Ayah Beizeen has a special friend from the age of five, when she was found on her terrace staring at the Moon. She talks to the Moon and it listens. Talking to the Moon is the only way, Ayah knows, to share her feelings. One night, the Moon comes with strange tidings - it says that everything that she knew about her life is going to change. She has somehow stumbled upon a strange path and the destination is uncertain. It all depends on the choices she makes. A tale of love, heartbreak, dreams, failures but above all - redemption. Follow Ayah's journey as she surpasses all odds. Is she the 'living miracle' that the Voice of the Moon claims her to be? [ Highest rank - #4 ] [ Cover by - @MayTijssen ] [ Unedited - First draft ]

"I'll choose you. And I'll choose you over and over and over. Without a pause, without a doubt. In a heartbeat, I'll keep choosing you." •••• This is just a collection of oneshots, whether it'd be prompts from tumblr, or just my imagination. I will be accepting requests for prompts and other Peculiars to write about! Also, the quote above isn't mine and this book may contain spoilers, but I'll remind you when that happens. Thank you! •••• Side note: None of the characters from Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children are owned by me, nor are the rest of the books/movie.

Highest ranking: #104 in Mystery/Thriller Placed 1st in 'Most Engaging' category of the Sour Apple Awards Placed 1st in Mystery/Thriller category of the Gem Awards Placed 2nd in 'Best of the Best' category of the Amethyst Awards Placed 3rd in Mystery/Thriller category of The Dreamcatcher Awards Also has stickers for winning first in other awards. A secret unknown mission, a shot down helicopter, a guilt-ridden heart, and no name. Yep, that sounds just about right. I came to Abel Township for one reason only, but after the unfortunate event of my helicopter being shot down by a rocket launcher of all things, I'm apparently going to be staying here a lot longer than planned. Because of it, I'm going to have to play nice in order to survive, which is a lot harder than it seems. Everyone carries a burden with them, me included. I'm a runner, and until I leave this pathetic little settlement I'm going to do my job, and run. But one of the things I'm learning it that nothing is ever as it seems. Each piece of the puzzle brings another question, another addition to the story shrouded in mystery and dripping with sinister intent. Maybe this settlement is as pathetic as I thought it was. Maybe my helicopter was shot down for a reason. I cannot wait around for an answer. I learned that long ago. Now deemed Runner Five, I have decided I will do what I have to do to find out every mystery here in Abel Township. And I'm going to start with my actual mission. What is Project Greenshoot... And how will it help this settlement survive the zombie apocalypse? Disclaimer: I do not own Zombies Run or it's characters. The only characters I own are the ones I created all by myself. This is my Runner Five's perspective on the missions in season 1 and just in Abel Township. Hope you enjoy. Cover by @_Thalix_

Book #2 in the To Be A Runner series. If you haven't read book #1 I suggest you do that before continuing. Highest ranking #84 in Mystery/Thriller A blown up Township, one sworn enemy, a huge annoying crush, still no name, and a chance to speak again. Yep, that sounds about-wait, what? Abel is gone, the Major is back, and now we all have teamed up in trying to defeat the main enemy-the man who somehow knows how to make zombies blow up a township: Professor Van Ark. We know he's got something going on, but what we know is just the tip of the iceberg. He's the reason the apocalypse began. He's the reason Abel Township is gone. He's the reason Maxine isn't with Paula. I'm going to stop at nothing to stop him and whatever it is he's planning. I will stop at nothing to find out answers, but there's one thing I have to remember... Not all of us will make it out alive, and not all of us will make it out... unharmed. New friends, traitors, deaths, experimentations-all of it. It's all something I'm going to have to face, and I can only hope that I'll be able to survive it. Disclaimer: I do not own zombies run, or its characters. The only characters I own are the ones I've created. This is my Runner Five's view of season two with some things I like to imagine happened in between missions.

Since the accident three years ago, her memories have been lost and her nights plagued with the same recurring dream of having to flee leaving everyone she loves behind. She can't help but wonder if there's more to who she is with her repeating dreams, mystical tattoos and unusual abilities. The reality is--time has run out, and her past has finally caught up with her. She needs to piece together her missing memories now if she wants the right to claim a future with love. *** Copyright © 2015-2016 by @The3Dreamers All rights reserved.

My name is Tide. I'd love to say hi and all, but if I tell you my location two very bad things could happen. First, someone who isn't really on my list of favorite people might find the information. Then, they would hunt us down and try to use our powers to take over the world and other maniacal things. Yeah, not so fun. However, I'd like it if people knew how things really happened. You may see things on the news, and they may sound bad, but trust me, this is the real story. Because I'm an Elemental. And somebody needs to set the record straight.* [Action #101] [Fantasy #2] :: cover credit goes to the lovely ATXNNA :: *heyo so this book is pretty old, some (a lot of) spelling mistakes, some (a lot of) plot holes, but if you're looking for some fast paced action and some sarcasm and some cliche romance you should honestly just go to the second book but yeah, this has got that, just with, you know, the glaring faults in the story line. Just a warning.

Hey, it's me again. Yes, Tide, the one and only Double Elemental. Even among the freaks I'm a freak. How fun. But enough about that. I'm a little busy trying to save the world from a genocidal woman who may or may not still be alive. I'm not entirely sure. So, because I have an unfortunate sense of morality, I am leaving the the peaceful beaches of Hawaii to travel to Russia and save the world from the above mentioned genocidal woman. Yay me. (Sequel to The Elementals) [Fantasy #5]
