September 14th has been known as a time of great tragedy for the Goodwin family. After all, it was on that treacherous day that Nathaniel Goodwin was found dead on the floor of his study, it was also when Tommy Young mysteriously vanished and the day Twyla Goodwin became the single biggest terror in all of New Brooks history. Now, another September 14th is approaching and the horrors that await the Goodwin girls may threaten to ruin the fragile peace they've managed to create. Twyla and Luna Goodwin have led separate lives for the past six years after a horrible incident tore their family apart. As Twyla Goodwin took on the unbearable responsibility of becoming the next Goodwin witch, Luna followed her mother's footsteps by joining the mortal world. Neither sister planned on seeing the other again but as the twins approach their eighteenth birthday they find that their paths are bound indefinitely. Together, they manage to uncover the secrets their family has kept hidden, fight Dark Forces that wish to destroy them and discover their place in a thousand year prophecy. ------------ "Not all monsters hide under beds... Some monsters hide behind Louboutin heels and strawberry flavored lipgloss. Others hide behind leather jackets and combat boots," Alix said, her tone grave. "Keep that in mind and you might just survive." #30 in Paranormal 4/16/17

Destiny. It was a funny thing. I had always thought that I could create my own destiny. But after attending my junior year at Nox Haven, I knew that wasn't possible. My destiny was written two hundred years before my birth, when my ancestor- The Dark Warlock- created a cult of Dark Ones. It was my destiny to rid the world of his mistake- but I didn't know how. That was the funny part, I knew what I had to do but I didn't know how. Nobody wrote that part of the prophecy. I would figure it out though, two of my beloved friends were dead because the Dark Ones. I swore on their graves that no one else would follow. **Book Three in the Nox Haven Series**

I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)

Now, as a sixteen year old girl, I must prepare myself for war. I only hope they don't have me leading the troops because every time I try to make things better they become worse. In a time of chaos I must learn who I can really trust. Who will love you? Who will die for you? And who will betray you?

"So what's an angel doing out here committing a devil's crime?" Jenna asked snarkily. "Please, graffiti is hardly devilish. I'm just going through my rebellious phase," the angel shot back. Jenna snorted and came to a halt some two yards away, one shoulder propped on the brick wall next to the angel's work. "Graffiti is hardly rebellious either, Halo." In our modern world, there are some born with access into the higher plane above our own. These people will manifest as either angels, or demons. Jenna is a demon, belonging to one of the most powerful demon families of the city--this means her parents practically pay her to stay out of their hair. Doing just this, Jenna spends her nights graffitiing around the city...alone. Yet things are changing as the stand-off between demons and angels begins to deteriorate toward truly fighting, and Jenna meets a rebellious angel out graffitiing the walls as well. Cool cool, read if you're interested, I'd appreciate it. This is completed (the whole rough draft in less than a month, so we'll see how that goes) so no abandoning here. Comment on continuity errors I and my comrades miss, confusing lines of dialogue (I tried to write them as proper dialogue rather than babying readers, but it might come off to vague in areas), and anything you liked or disliked for whatever reason.

Xedalia Trammers was born in Erudite, where her personality (apparently) does not match up. Her decision to live as her true character causes her to live a true life; to lose people, to gain friends, to question the factions, to struggle. To love who she shouldn't, maybe someone too daunting for her. Hope you enjoy!! And if you do, please give it a star. Thanks ;)) Warning: Some inappropriate language.

[STORY HAS BEEN REBOOTED] Ivy just burned her boarding school to the ground, but that's the least of her problems. People are chasing her, the government wants to lock her up, and a group called Scorpion wants to recruit her. Ivy quickly learns that she isn't alone in the world. There are other kids like her. Kids with powers. They are known as the Supers, and now it's up to them to stop Scorpion. The fate of the country, and possibly the planet, depends on it. The Supers don't know it yet, but the whole world is about to change. They've become a part of something much bigger than an experiment gone wrong, or a fight for power, or the strange and sinister organizations trying to use the Supers for their own purposes. Something that could be bigger than the universe itself. // Completed Word Count: ~62,000 Cover by me Read more on my website: http://auroranelson.weebly.com/ Watch the trailer here: https://youtu.be/Uze4_QjdyYM Check out the pinterest board: https://www.pinterest.com/auroranelson28/the-supers-experiment/

[THIS SERIES HAS BEEN REBOOTED] Dangerous new players are entering the battle between the Supers and their enemy, an organization seeking power and absolute control. Now, Ivy and the others have no choice but to place their trust in Malcolm, a boy with questionable motives who is more than capable of killing them. He may be their only hope to save Claire and defeat Zodiac. Of course, Malcolm and his mysterious origins are the least of the their problems. Scientist John Smith is creating powerful weapons to pit against the Supers. The government is turning the country against them. They are far from being able to overpower Zodiac's army. Strangest of all are the triangular shards of metal beginning to turn up: the Pyramid Fragments. The one owned by the Director at Tyche Laboratories was only the first. The Supers know nothing about where they came from. Or what power they hold. ~ Cover by me Completed Word Count: ~54,000
