It's been months since the citizens of Skyrim last seen or heard of the Dragonborn. They were quietly beginning to lose hope against the dragon menace. A stranger comes to Riverwood, and Bishop swears he's seen her before. Bishop didn't care who she was. He had nothing better to do, and was just along for the ride. Right? Back in Falskaar, the ruler of Staalgard has waged war. Unbeknownst to Bishop, he might be the savior the island needs. (skyrim romance mod by Mara Lightfeather // falskaar mod by Alexander J. Velicky) [Skyrim standalone story]

A collection of several short stories that come to my mind. The contents of this book of tales include (but are not limited to): Character backstories, non-Mage story arc character appearances, utter ridiculousness, and perhaps even previews of works yet to come, as well as the occasional character interview. (Better summary later; this is all I've got for now.)

Toralf 'the Fearless' comes off as the typical brand of moron with an ego twice his size. He grossly exaggerates his accomplishments and can scarce resist the opportunity to chime in with a crass remark or innuendo during a serious conversation. He's loud, obnoxious, self-assured, and at times insufferably dense. So why would an individual so seemingly attached to his asshole-ry seek to join the Companions, a faction with a reputation for honorable conduct and stewardship? Though he seems ill-suited to be one of Ysgramor's fabled fighters, there is more to Toralf than the unlikable persona he so readily displays. Not only is he a capable fighter, but has an almost fatalistic loyalty to those he fights beside. Plagued by a storied and not quite dead past, he seeks to forge a new identity for himself in the halls of Jorrvaskr, to make something of his life about which he can finally be proud. In time, he could become someone more than worthy of membership. Will this young hero-in-the-making find a way to overcome his past poor life choices and rise to his full potential, or will his pride be his downfall? Can he keep his attitude in check long enough for the Companions to give him a fighting chance? [Part of the "Mageverse" - I'd recommend reading Mage (A Skyrim Fanfic) before this for best experience!]

You know why you're here. (I am trying to update daily, and the one-shots are a minimum of 1000 words) No promise of lemons, but fluff will make multiple appearances. There might be some foul chicken language- fair warning.

Book Two of the Honor and Glory Trilogy After the unexpected attack on Jorrvaskr, Ylva Sky-Shatterer has discovered a note that talks about the small island of Solstheim and some strange man called Miraak. The name Miraak sounds so familiar, like she should know him, but the meaning of the name eludes her. Whoever this man is, he sent two people to kill her, and now she must find out why. So her husband, Vilkas, his brother, Farkas, the Companions's new recruit, Tyra, and Ylva are to set out to Solstheim. They have to find out who this Miraak is, and soon. Ylva has no idea what to expect, but she does know one thing. This adventure will end with either Miraak or herself at the end of the other's blade. NOTE: I do not own Skyrim, its quest lines, or its dialogue. I only own my original characters and dialogue. Prequel: Honor and Glory Sequel: Victory or Sovngarde

Book One of the Honor and Glory Trilogy After training for over a year to fulfill her destiny as Dragonborn and defeat Alduin, Ylva knew she would need a challenge. Joining the Companions in Whiterun seemed like the only guild she could ever call home. But she still doesn't feel quite settled. None of the Companions know she's the Dragonborn, the savior of Skyrim. And she doesn't want them to know. What would they say if they knew? Would they respect her? Or would they hate her and tell her to leave? Would they scoff at the idea that a woman barely into her adulthood had been the one to save them? Maybe not all of them, but Vilkas, one of the most respected members within the Circle, and one of the most honor-bound men she has ever met, can't seem to fathom that thought. Because of this, Ylva doesn't know if she could ever tell her new family who she truly is. NOTE: I do not own Skyrim, the Companions, or any of the dialogue from this game. This is a fanfiction and a fanfiction only; I only own my original characters and dialogue. Sequel: To Kill A Dragonborn

I highly recommend you read my completed Skyrim works before reading this book. Sometimes, authors have ideas that look good in rough drafts, or in early versions of their works, but don't make any sense after they get done polishing up the story they're writing. Most authors would shrug it off and just leave the idea floating around, never to be seen by the public. Not me. No, I don't like to waste writing. I don't want to keep these crazy ideas to myself. I want to share them with the world. And that was where the idea for This is Our Home came from. This book is a collection of short stories that didn't make the cut when I was writing my other books. Features any characters from previous books and any characters that will be requested. Requests are always open. NOTE: This is not a reader insert book or one-shots book. This will all be written from a first-person perspective.

Being Maven Black-Briar's granddaughter, Mira has never really wanted for anything. The Black-Briars are the most respected family in Riften and their reach extends to most of the other Holds throughout Skyrim as well. No one will dare hurt Mira's feelings or deny her anything she wants, because if they do, Maven will hear about it. She can do anything she wants except for the thing she wants to do most. She wants to become an adventurer, but her family would never allow such a thing. Instead she is being groomed as part of the most influential family in Skyrim, and hates every second of it. Mira's boring life is turned upside down when she is framed for murder, but saved by an unknown stranger. Thrown out of everything she has come to know, Mira must discover her new path while dealing with a dangerously handsome man who grows more complicated the closer she comes to understanding him.
