** WATTYS 2018 WINNER ** Big Tech meets Die Hard in this techno-thriller Kirkus Reviews calls "a clever, spirited tale with a brainy, nimble heroine at the helm." From IndieReader's 5-star (highest rating) review: "Bond weaves an entertaining tale filled with deceit, robots, Russians, and tech entrepreneurs that all combine to give the reader a reason to flip pages furiously to find out what might happen next." Deb Bollinger has no time for corporate training. Her company's top engineer at just twenty-seven, Deb has blocked off her day for the one project she truly cares about: the launch of Carebnb, an app that finds spare beds for the homeless. When she's told all employees must drop everything for some busywork exercise called Blackquest 40, it's an easy no. Trouble is, her bosses aren't really asking. Blackquest 40 is the mother of all corporate trainings. A near-impossible project to be completed in forty straight hours. No phones. No internet. Sleeping on cots. Nobody in, nobody out. Deb finds the whole setup creepy and authoritarian. When a Carebnb issue necessitates her leaving the office, she heads for the door. What's the worst that could happen? Armed commandos, HVAC-duct chases, a catastrophic master plan that gets darker by the hour - Blackquest 40 is a fresh take on the Die Hard formula, layering smart-drones and a modern heroine onto the classic action tale. Cover design and illustration by Ethan Scott.

♕ WATTPAD FEATURED STORY 12/4/17 ♕ 🌟 Highest Rank #308 in the Fantasy category 1/2/18 🌟 🏆 #1 fantasy in the Chaos Awards 2018 🏆 To avoid war from spreading and the world from breaking, a young woman has to reclaim her stolen throne and expose the Truth before it's too late. ♕ The lands of Etheria have long since been plagued by war. A new age started when one king conquered the kingdoms around him and would not stop until all the lands yielded before him. Now, Magic is dying, a rebellion is rising, and the King is marching towards the last remaining free lands. Elora Atherton wants nothing to do with war. The dreams that haunt her at night show her enough of it to know its festering darkness, but she soon finds she is not as far away from its center as she thought. When the Black Guard comes for her on the night of Valmai, she finds out she is not only the lost heir to the Albion throne, but the last Truthseer as well. After Elora barely escapes with her life, the weight of a whole kingdom now rests on her shoulders. If she ever wants her throne back, she has to unite the once Loyal Houses of Albion, rally them against the Crown--against the man that has taken everything from her--and unravel the web of Lies the King has spun. But will the lands and people she barely remembers be worth the sacrifices that await her? ♕ A Crown of Lies is the first novel in the Keepers of Truth series set in a world full of magic, love, and betrayal. The story will be updated every two weeks. "There's beautiful language and imagery; it gives a very vivid picture of what is happening. The story also moves very fluidly." --lisastree "This is so well written and beautifully crafted. I feel like it's going to be an epic adventure." --StokeyTheCat ♕

♕ Longlisted in the Wattys 2018 ♕ To avoid the world from falling into darkness, rivals will have to work together and forget the past to defeat an old enemy that has festered in the shadows for ages. ☠ The world of Mithra has known a big secret for centuries. Hiding their true face, creatures from myth and legend protect the lands--and the unknowing humans--from the monsters living in the dark. With a powerful Crown, they rule the world from the shadows and prevent it from falling into complete darkness. Over the centuries, different Houses of Shadows have held all of the power. First, it were the vampires that wore the Crown and for countless generations, they had a vice-like grip upon the world. Then came the elves, the nymphs, and the unicorns. For over two hundred years the Crown has belonged to the Lycan House. They have successfully defended it in many a bloody, brutal battle and have now attained relative peace between the Houses, all whilst keeping the existence of the Crown and those who vie for it a secret. Now though there is a new threat, one unlike any Keeper of the Crown has ever had to face. Hordes of the Undead are rising from the earth, threatening the very existence of all of Mithra. More importantly, they are threatening the Crown itself. Enemies will have to work together after centuries of war. When the Heirs of the Houses of Shadows discover that the stories they have been told their whole lives are false, old feuds are renewed. Can they keep the peace amongst their Houses, or will Mithra fall prey to the darkness at last? ☠ Crown of Shadows is a novella written for the Open Novella Contest and is set in a world where the creatures of nightmares are not as evil as the stories say and the creatures of legend are darker than you can imagine. Follow Nox, Celyna, Nyssa, Darren and Verin in their journey to save the world. ☠ Placed in the Rising Fantasy Stories on Wattpad #28 (12/1/17) ☠
