[Watty Awards 2019 Winner - New Adult!] Damian Ryker is something of a nomad. In his 22 years of life he's moved a grand total of 14 times. But he's here to stay this time, honest. He's already got himself a cushy new job in town and he's exploring the popular local shops, like that coffee shop down the road. It seems nice enough, perhaps a little too hipster for his taste and the barista is awkward, if not the slightest bit weird. But there's something strange about the innocuous café, like-oh I don't know-earthquakes that seem to destroy it every morning before miraculously repairing themselves and leaving him with the only memory of it. And just when that sounded a tad off, things start to get...a little out of this world. ------------ This was my 2017 Nanowrimo story that I couldn't quite fall out of love with. Inspired by the fun and fascinating world of fan fiction AUs, I hope you'll have as much fun with this as I had writing it!

[UNEDITED AND TO BE REMOVED DECEMBER 31st, 2025] *** After moving to Connecticut to room with her best friend for the summer, Chastity Blake doesn't know what to think of the charm bracelet she finds, caught under the floorboards in her new bedroom; with the initials D.K. engraved into it. But ignoring the bracelet's origins isn't an option when she begins to live out strange scenarios as a young woman named Delilah. And when these scenarios start cutting too close to reality, she can't help but suspect they're memories. She quickly realizes though they're not her memories. They're Delilah Kim's memories -- a girl who was believed to have committed her family's murder, then suicide. But her memories tell a different story other than what everyone else in town seems to know. And it's up to Chastity to place the missing pieces of the puzzle together.

"Oh, darling. Don't you know the rules? If you die here in the Spirit Realm, there's no going back to your world anymore." All it took was one terror attack in Wheldrake to shatter Skylar Harrison's life to the core. It's been two months after Hunter Drayer, the light of Skylar's life, died. If coping with trauma wasn't enough already, now she's been seeing repetitive dreams for the past month. It never seems to add up. But when a portal is created between two worlds, Skylar discovers a lot of things. To start with, Skylar is one of the few people on Earth to be born with a specialized personality and possess the gift of being able to conjure her own spirit animal. The thing is, this spirit animal exists in another realm entirely... The Hidden Realm. The land where four different domains of people exist. The land where the wolves are the kings of the Dracheoryon domain, and the lions are missing in action. The land where Skylar finally gets a break, and where she, as part of the wolves, rules one of the four domains of the Empire. And adding the cherry on the cake, Skylar reunites with a certain "dead" boyfriend of hers. You wouldn't want anything better, would you? But everything is not as perfect as it seems. "Everybody is ruled by fear, Skylar. Why do you think Lionhearts are a dead concept? Because we learned to conquer fear. And that's why we wolves get the throne." A task to bring back a rose from the outskirts; the Bishop Rose, which could potentially save Skylar the trouble of losing Hunter again, forever. But to journey over to the dark side of the Spirit Realm, where nothing less than the most daunting beasts roam, and fight a battle against the enemy's entire legion single-handedly while choosing between reality and the Empire? It's a tough life. What would you do? But this is Skylar Harrison we're talking about, end of the day. The wolves didn't rule for no reason. "Rapide, silencieux, mortel." Win or lose, she'll kill for that rose.

It's just an ordinary day for octogenarian sleuth Myrtle Clover-until her yardman discovers a dead body planted in her backyard. This death isn't cut and dried-the victim was bashed in the head with one of Myrtle's garden gnomes. Myrtle's friend Miles recognizes the body and identifies him as Charles Clayborne... reluctantly admitting he's a cousin. Charles wasn't the sort of relative you bragged about-he was a garden variety sleaze, which is very likely why he ended up murdered. As Myrtle starts digging up dirt to nip the killings in the bud, someone's focused on scaring her off the case. Myrtle vows to find the murderer...before she's pushing up daisies, herself.
