⚠️this story is a weirdcore/dreamcore type story, so please read with caution if it will cause you to dissociate!!⚠️ You have glitched out of reality and have become a part of a different universe. Behind every door is something that is abnormal, and after a while this strange place begins to feel like home to you. But you don't belong here, and fate is going to find a way to get you back into the universe you belong to. Hi! This is the first story I am posting on here. All of the characters on the cover have been created by @handsome1squidward on wattpad. I am not the best at editing photos so I might redo the cover when I get better 😌 Please also note that I have not created the back rooms, and a lot of the settings I have described are inspired by pictures I've seen on pinterest!

[ONC 2023 and Wattys 2024 winner!] Drug dealer Nathan just can't be bothered to care about some of the stranger things in his life. Like the spellbook he found, complete with working magic and all. Okay, fine, maybe he tried one spell, and maybe that ended with his curtains on fire. Lesson learned: leave forces you don't understand alone. Powerful magic or not - for Nathan, this is just another Wednesday. Not everyone shares his opinion. When YouTube sensation Jamie insists on making a video about his discovery and said video goes viral, Nathan finds himself in a spotlight he completely failed to foresee. While he struggles to adjust to his newfound fame, Jamie and her oddly charming eccentricities drag him into a wacky investigation of his magical tome's origins and true nature. Finding answers shouldn't be that hard. But Nathan's criminal associates want his spellbook for themselves. And they'll stop at nothing to get it. ~Book one in the Witchcraft Wednesday Investigations trilogy~

After bursting onto the fantasy scene with his acclaimed debut novel, Elantris, and following up with his blockbuster Mistborn trilogy, Brandon Sanderson proves again that he is today’s leading master of what Tolkien called “secondary creation,” the invention of whole worlds, complete with magics and myths all their own. Warbreaker is the story of two sisters, who happen to be princesses, the God King one of them has to marry, the lesser god who doesn’t like his job, and the immortal who’s still trying to undo the mistakes he made hundreds of years ago. Their world is one in which those who die in glory return as gods to live confined to a pantheon in Hallandren’s capital city and where a power known as BioChromatic magic is based on an essence known as breath that can only be collected one unit at a time from individual people. By using breath and drawing upon the color in everyday objects, all manner of miracles and mischief can be accomplished. It will take considerable quantities of each to resolve all the challenges facing Vivenna and Siri, princesses of Idris; Susebron the God King; Lightsong, reluctant god of bravery, and mysterious Vasher, the Warbreaker.

The Central book of the Fox Universe/Earth-F. Alice the Immortal and The Eagle Ascends - set in the present day of Earth-f (based on the public domain comic book universe Fox Features, which was active 1939-1950's). Stories taking place from 1939 to present day. Alice just wants to be left alone to enjoy her immortal life (900 years+) but on Earth-F, following the Anti-Vigilante act of 2002, being 'special' puts a target on your back. As Alice deals with her accumulated guilt and neurosis, how much longer can Alice slide under the radar, before THEY notice and come after her! The Eagle is the last hero standing - a man who refuses to give up and is determined to find out what happened to the lost science hero community. You can beat him, you can stab him him, you can shoot him, but you CAN'T break him! Can one man, even one with an iron will, make a difference in the authoritarian United States of the present day? Especially when every time he puts on his costume, he puts a target on his back! And that's without dealing with the trauma and memory losses that make his past fuzzy, including how a young man in his early/mid twenties can remember fighting in the second world war, but nothing between 1948 and waking up in the desert several years earlier.
