Abandoned on the steps of a church as an infant, Evelyn Ferne finally feels as though her life is coming together. At long last she has the parents she's always longed for, as well as her first taste of real romance and love. But try as she might her life has never been normal. Abilities to which she has little control and even less understanding have always threatened to derail the life Evelyn worked so hard to build. Abilities that are steadily growing in strength and diversity. And now Evelyn's tenuous hold on life has been threatened further still. A friend, once thought imaginary, has made a very sudden, very real re-appearance, bringing to life secrets and dangers from a past and a world Evelyn never knew existed. A world that wants nothing more than to tear everything she loves apart. Will Evelyn be able to hold onto the life she's always wanted and protect those she loves, or will the unknown darkness from her hidden past claim her for its own.

As readers, we all feel like books are magic. But in Alia's world, they really are-or The Book is, at least. They say it was a gift from the gods, the source of the magic that runs through Beldara and a way to document the amazing adventures of the Heroes. Alia has always been fascinated by the Book and its wonderful stories, but her gender and birth mean she can never join the priesthood and tend to the storytelling magic. But when something goes wrong in the latest chapter of the Story, only Alia's ability for reading has a chance at unraveling the mystery. She'll have to fight her way against great odds--first against the willpower of her elders and then against the terrors of the outside world--if there's to be any chance at success. Good thing she has a few Heroes at her side... Or is it? The first 50,000 words of this were written in 30 days for NaNoWriMo 2014. The rest is continuing at fast pace, and updates are once a week. Check it out if you love reading, magic, adventure, romance, and a fresh and original story.

Across the continent of Emiraine, black chasms ravage the land, bringing with them monsters from ancient times. In the ruins of an once mighty Empire, a god-king waits to woken. And in the quiet, echoing halls of the Glass Palace, a plot is carried out that could unite two kingdoms together, or destroy what little remains of their fragile peace. Orphaned by the Abyssal War and sold into the service of assassins as a child, Rylen has only ever known a life where trust was a myth and love was a lie. But when she is dragged into a plan that could either shape the future between the four kingdoms or ruin what little peace there is left, she must decide where her alliances are. Rylen quickly finds that there is more to survival than a quick wit and a sharp tongue when she finds herself fighting in a war no one knows how to win. Rylen quickly finds that Ylaisse is a far different place than the palaces of Bazgrik, and that allies might just be worth the price of trust. Though she discovers a kindred spirit in the pirate prince, Necalli, and the heir to the summer throne, Rosaline, she also quickly discovers enemies in the halls of the sun as well. Tensions and rivalries are quick to brew, threatening the stability of her new home and forcing Rylen to question just what she is willing to give up in pursuit of her kingdoms survival and just how long she can keep her secret from getting out. But when a noble is found dead, quickly followed by another, Rylen finds that her secret might not be the only thing the fate of everything rests upon. As she races against the clock to find the murderer and avoid being accused herself, Rylen unravels a history between the four kingdoms lost to time, and discovers that her role in it might be greater than she'd ever imagined.
