THIS BOOK TAKES PLACE AFTER 'BLOG OF A TEENAGE SUPERHERO'. You don't have to read that book first to understand the events that unfold in this one, but this story will spoil all the major plot twists in BoaTS. *** What makes a supervillain? After escaping prison, ex-supervillain Masquerade is on the run from the city he used to love. But the past, in the form of a boy he hurt and a superhero who saved him, won't let him go. He thinks if he joins the organization that wants to destroy "mutated monsters" like himself and the supers he used to terrorize, then maybe he can be made human again. Flawed logic, sure, but Masquerade would do anything to escape the person he's become. But when this organization takes their agenda a step too far, resulting in a tragedy far too close, Masquerade has got to choose: to be the person he's learned to be, or to fight back. *** COMPLETE

"Welcome to The Missionary Position, and I'm not talking about the band." ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Meet Sophie Evans and Jackson Laine - two very different people caught up in the classic "boy meets girl" scenario... sort of. When one of Jackson's bandmates goes completely AWOL, Sophie finds herself hastily recruited as a stand-in percussionist for his infamous garage band, The Missionary Position. Even though she has only minimal drumming skills (as in, none at all), she accepts the position, and the adventures with Jackson that it entails. But can this awkwardly formed friendship endure all the obstacles in its way? Scheming friends, angry Germans, shady gigs, a cursed talent show and - worst of all - the apparent sexual tension that rapidly forms between them? Find out in this nostalgic comedy that will take you right back to your emo phase. Tingling with sarcasm and dirty wit, yet also steeped with heart, friendship, and change, the story of Sophie and Jackson reminds makes us consider not only how we love, but why. **A WATTPAD PICKS STORY (UNDISCOVERED, FOR NOW) 1/19/18** **HIGHEST RANK #385 IN HUMOR**

Samuel Brandt woke up with his thoughts written all over his body. His brother woke up with his head missing. His sister woke up to find that her skin would crack open unless she stayed in water. All of the other children in the secluded Iowa town of Oak Knoll woke up having undergone strange transformations. Now, they are all forced to live at 407 West Marshall Street, the mysterious house outside of town. With the new name of The Boy with Words for Skin, Samuel wants nothing more than to hide from his new life. He painfully and unpredictably sheds his skin, there is a Voice in the entryway closet that is often cruel, and-perhaps worst of all for a naturally shy boy-the other children look to him as a leader. As his seven-year-old brother struggles with their new life, as terrifying growls start to come from the pitch black basement, and as his feelings for a girl begin to grow, The Boy with Words for Skin realizes that he wants to change. He wants to put others first, learn from his peers, and let himself hope that things will get better. The Boy with Words for Skin is the first book in the 407 West Marshall Street series. Each book will advance the story but be told from a different character. Book 2 will be The Girl without Eyes.

WARNING: CONTAINING AMOUNTS OF SASS PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN TO MANKIND In the city of NYC--- Ok. Hold up. First of all, New York City. What, are ya gonna assume everyone here knows what NYC is? Anyway, this is about two people. I can almost hear you rolling your eyes. Another cliché teen fiction with a bad boy and a good girl? Nope. This is about superheroes. I can still hear you rolling your eyes. Superheroes. Like in comic books? Like people with super speed and mutant powers? Yes. But this isn't about the fight they have. More about the lives they lead without the masks. But just keep in mind, people who live in the world have all different skin colours. Do not assume my characters are of one unless I state them explicitly. and diversity is welcome here in my novel! Anyhow, back to the story. Ever wonder where supervillains go after their fight with the hero? What about the other side of the story? It's not like they sit in their lair cackling all day and planning how to kidnap reporters. What about the lives they lead? And instead of just focusing on that, what if the superhero and the supervillain knew each other? I mean, can they see behind the mask? No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out? Now, I assume you know all of these questions will be answered in this book. But hold on. It's going to take a while. You're in for a bumpy ride. And if any of you got any of the references in this description, give yourself a pat on the back. That is a beautiful thing. And if you can name all the references in this book, you truly are a gift to mankind. Fangirl out.

"You're Am and I'm Bruin. You get into hilarious misadventures and I'm there to laugh at you. That is the flow of the universe." Merlin, Camelot, Arthur, magic, dragons, knights, kings, princesses. A world of fantasy and myth that is woven into every leaflet and plastic sword sold in souvenir shops across Britain. Yet the truth, the story behind six year olds trying to launch rubber arrows from a plastic bow, is much more strange, and much less honourable than you might think. When a young warlock and a backchatting, sarcasm-spitting mapmaker's daughter appear in the court of the new king, they bring a world of chaos with them. One holds the key to Arthur's destiny, the other is just, kind of... there. With the help of a few familiar faces that may not be quite like you remember them, they will embark on a quest of epic proportions to do whatever everybody else tells them not to. One thing's for sure, Camelot is about to get a whole lot more fun. ///Featured on Myth and Legend profile\\\ ///Featured on Magic profile\\\

Reilly Weber is just any sassy teenager in high school. She's weird, quirky, and fun, without caring what anyone else thinks. She has one best friend, who just happens to be probably the most 'Super Obsessed' teenage girl in the entirety of Fall City. But when she goes on a class field trip and the bus goes haywire, they are saved by the one and only Titanium Force, Fall City's most loved superhero. What Reilly wasn't expecting was for a high-rating super villain to escape from prison, and head straight towards Fall City. Of course, adding that to the many things in Reilly's life that don't make sense isn't turning out to be as fun as she expected.
