Cara’s mother has disappeared. Her father isn’t talking about it. Her big brother Max is hiding behind his iPod, and her genius little brother Jackson is busy studying the creatures he collects from the beach. But when a watery specter begins to haunt the family’s Cape Cod home, Cara and her brothers realize that their scientist mother may not be who they thought she was—and that the world has much stranger, much older inhabitants than they had imagined. With help from Cara’s best friend Hayley, the three embark on a quest that will lead them from the Cape’s hidden, ancient places to a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea. They’re soon on the front lines of an ancient battle between good and evil, with the terrifying “pouring man” close on their heels.

An ancient alien relic is found by an asteroid mining crew, which turns out to be much more than just a strange black opaque cube. Logan, brother to one of the miners, is whisked away along with several other specialists to work on a secret project. Under the watchful eyes of their personal Security Special Forces agents, Logan and colleagues begin to become suspicious behind the motives of the Jackson-Stone Corp. Jackson-Stone Corp. is the largest company in the world. With two space elevators, the company monopolized space trade, mining, zero-G tech development and many other facets of the worlds economy. The company even controlled the government of New Congo. When the power of the cube is harnessed, will it be used for good or will greed turn humanity down a dangerous path? This is a working rough draft of my first novel, i would appreciate any feedback that anyone is willing to give. I have not yet finished the novel, so some parts will be more polished than others. Thank you.

How would you describe Franklin Stine? "Devoted underachiever." "Too bland to pick out of a police line-up." "Vanilla paste mixed with white rice and a side of chalk." Or maybe just one word: boring. As in "the most boring boy in the entire world." (They had an awards ceremony; he took home a lazy little trophy.) All Franklin wants is to sleep through high school, and his depressingly average life, without too much fuss. But then she happened. Kimberly King. If you were brave enough to describe her, you might say: "natural leader," "badass with a baseball bat," "six star general," or even, "purple hair." She's recruiting any and all students with magical power to join her Konquest Klub. Her ultimate goal: world domination, and they can either join her, or wind up as one of the many "Slop Boys" under her future regime. That's not an idea most people can take seriously-Franklin included. He doesn't want to get caught in a time loop. He doesn't want to kidnap animals from the zoo. He doesn't want to have anything to do with magic, genies or caramel lattes. And he really wishes that Kimberly would stop using the Boy's Restroom for her secret meetings. What no one realizes is that underneath Kimberly's bravado and confidence lies a dark secret-and when it comes out, Franklin is the only friend that Kimberly has left. Will one deeply uninteresting boy and one crazy-ambitious girl be enough to face punk-rock magicians, zoo security, and a timeline stuck on reload? Will Kimberly really conquer the world? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All things Kimberly now exist here: https://abylon.wordpress.com/ Show your support for the Konquest Klub by leaving an Amazon review: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018ZY85V8

"If we are found out, we will be found out together." - Zoey Torence *** Everyone knows superheroes aren't real, and if they were scientists would preform all kinds of tests on them. That's why the few superheroes in this world can't be found out. Adeline Kim, Kristelle Osborne, Zoey Torence, and Emery Smith are the last superheroes on Earth and they have the best disguise ever, well HAD the best disguise ever. They were singers. The most popular band ever formed in the year 3008. Everyone loved them and would go against anyone who said other wise or started false rumors. So when someone finds out about their little secret, it doesn't spread around fast. In fact, it stopped for a while. But the band is worried. If someone saw their powers, it won't be a matter of time before others find out. The paparazzi, president, fans...everything would end. Especially if you have someone like Lynn and Rupert on your tail. *** Okay, I was inspired (Yeah, I know, AGAIN?!) to write another book and this time I'll try to keep it. I updated Legion of Dragons again. Big twist in it. Anyways, please enjoy the story ;) I hope you like it!! Blazing Rain. All Rights Reserved®

In Elemental magic you can be one of four magic types; water, fire, earth, and air. The only problem is Violet is none of these things. Is she what they call a magic dud, or is she something rarer, more powerful, and more dangerous than anyone could have imagined!? Teasers, "Em, most girls sneak out for a boy, you sneak out for a unicorn." I began to cry as it reached for my face."No!" I screamed. "Please No!" I went to pull back the shower curtain, but some nagging thought in the back of my head stopped me. I didn't have a little brother, so why was there a little boy in my bathroom? I gulped and with shaking hands pulled back the shower curtain. "What!? How could that be!?" I yelled, and covered my hand with my mouth. Shouting wasn't such a good idea right at this moment. If someone heard us and came up here to investigate the noise we were making, they would find a boy and a girl, a bloody knife with both their finger prints on it, and a very very dead body. "Don't touch her!" he hissed and lunged at Henry. Running through the night wearing nothing but a flimsy hospital dress, while waving a dismembered hand in his hand, was a strangeness no regular person could hope to inspire to.
