After a mysterious apocalyptic event, humanity fled Earth and reached the stars. In an effort to repopulate the human race, a space station the size of a moon was built, and now orbits Earth as its inhabitants wait and pray to one day go home, but, after a century, the network of society that once covered the planet has crumbled into ruin. Now, exactly one hundred years after the original survivors fled Earth, the powers that be have decided to discover whether it is safe to come home. Twenty teenagers, all found to be in perfect health and completely strong, each with a particular set of skills that have been determined to be enough to rebuild and maintain a society, are being sent back, down to the Earth's surface, and, if they can survive a year and a day below, it might just be safe enough for the remnants of humanity to follow them home. Among the unwitting teens are the genius scientist, Rooke, and the fighter, Evan. After her parents broke the law by contacting someone-or something-off the space station, Rooke was taken into the program without knowing why. After making the worst mistake of his life, Evan, too, finds himself paying for his crimes when he, like Rooke, finds himself on a spaceship, hurtling towards Earth, Together, they, and eighteen others, all between the ages of twelve and eighteen, must find a way to survive on an inhospitable, alien planet that should have been their home. But, when it turns out they might not be alone, when bad things start happening, and when secrets come to light, survival might just come at too high a price to pay. #campNaNoWriMo

The Rangers have been declared obsolete, but the crew of the starship Rogue isn't going to go down without a fight. The crew of the starship Rogue have gone underground, and are rebuilding the Intergalactic Ranger Corps in secret. It's time for the annual War Games, a chance for law enforcement and combat agencies to go up against each other to prove which one is the best, and the War Games are the Rangers' chance to prove that they are the best fighters out there, that they deserve to exist once more. They've saved the galaxy more than once, but now it's not a question of saving others. It's a question of saving themselves. *Sequel to Starship: Rogue*

A retelling of Charles Perault's fairytale Peau d'Ane, or Donkeyskin. Ten years before the start of our story, a young king married the most beautiful woman in the world. Nine years ago, the princess Elodie was born of their union, a girl small and plain and unassuming. From the day she was born, Elodie has lived in her parents' shadows, not minding, because she's known little else. Nine years, she's been tucked away in her nursery, ignored, forgotten, until one fateful winter. Warning: Because this story does follow the plot of the original story it will contain incestuous themes and sexual harassment/rape. If you are sensitive to these things, I'm sorry and you may want to skim/skip chapters 4-5 (Of Hatred and Of Pain).
