FIRST DRAFT A depressed teenager teams up with a young witch to fight the forces of evil and things that go bump in the night! Please put some feedback in the comments so I know how I'm doing!

War. War never changes. Divide and separation claws at a species until one side claims everything. Ideals and morals become twisted until they are turned into something else completely. Blood flows as easily as water. No regret, no mercy. Four provinces were created for each of the species: Druid, Fae, Elfin... the last being divided between the wolves and children of the night. The land recreated was named Hiraeth. The Elvin have been engaged in a bloody civil war for centuries between Light and Dark. Each province is led by a royal bloodline. Power is a prize, while getting it is a sin. Arailia is princess of the Dark bloodline. Blessed with the rare gift of destruction and chaos, she is captured to be used as a pawn. Underneath corruption and wickedness, a new evil arises. One can only hope the bloodlines unite before they are destroyed completely. ____________________________________________ ALL RIGHTS RESERVED @2016

Ari Callahan has no idea how to talk to boys -- or how to talk to anyone for that matter. Enter Zac, the cute new guy in town who won't stop texting her. But is his interest real, or does he have a hidden agenda? ***** Found as a young child washed up on the beach, 17-year-old Ari Callahan has never uttered a word out loud to anyone -- not even her adoptive family. Psychologists have diagnosed her with a condition called selective mutism, but Ari can't help identifying with her namesake character, Ariel, the little mermaid in the fairytale whose voice was stolen by a sea witch. Mermaid-obsession aside, Ari's silence makes socializing tough. She's never had a boyfriend or been asked out on a date. Not until Zac, the confident new arrival in town, asks for her number. But Zac has his own reasons for texting with Ari. He's part of a movement to sabotage the artificial music app called SirenSong, threatening to render human singing obsolete. Zac's collaborators have scoured the globe in search of a singing voice perfect enough to break the SirenSong spell, and their search has led them straight to Ari's beachside town. Will her relationship with Zac help Ari find her voice and unlock the secrets of her origins? Or will he use her and leave her high and dry? Title: Ari and Zac (formerly The Mermaid Hypothesis) Content Warning: This story contains references to selective mutism, suicidal thoughts, and early childhood trauma.

After an apocalyptic event that thrusts the world into a new ice age, Calestia - a 17-year-old girl with a strong will - must learn to survive on a land infested with gangs, guns, and distrust. ***** Nobody knows what day it is anymore. Nobody knows the month, the day of the week...and the only way to tell time is by the slight change in the color of the sky from grey to black every twenty-four hours. If a day even is twenty-four hours anymore. The planet is dead. The people are dead. Snow falls down upon piles of bodies like the ash of a volcanic eruption. Except, the snow doesn't stop. It never does. It continues to fall and fall until you wonder if it is even possible for another flake to come down and land silently in your hair. But it does. They do. There are few survivors of what the remaining have started to call the end of the world. The Apocalypse. Few who are still brave or scared of death enough to face the torture that is living. I am one of those survivors. Book One of the Snow Series Highest ranking: #3 in Sci-Fi Watty's Shortlisted
