#WATTYS2018 LONGLIST!! When Sparrow snuck off to end the ransom deal with the shifty dwarf, she didn't count on having a sister kidnapped. Nor did she anticipate being roped along on a crazy quest where she finds herself in a dragon's lair, in a royal palace, and everywhere in between. All she wanted was for Augustin to propose so she could finally stop that dreaded spinning, finally have a home for her little sister and herself, finally be loved. Except maybe a small part of her still longs for the innocent girl she used to be, singing and playing in the woods with her best friend and dreaming of adventure. The part of herself she tried so hard to bury when her pap disappeared and her mam went crazy years ago. And as Sparrow discovers more secrets about herself than she ever could have imagined, she is forced to question which of her dreams, if any, is the one she really wants. From the author of Beyond the Tower comes a loose retelling of Snow White and Rose Red, Rumpelstiltskin, and The Goose Girl filled with more magic, adventure, and romance than ever before. Updates every other friday!

In which an introverted healer learns to deal with the greatest horrors of his life - socializing, dungeons, and psychopathic NPCs. Season 1 of Eliona's War *** Seth Veregin doesn't know the first thing about video games. But when he's gifted a beta copy of Eliona's War - a Virtual Reality online game that's the very first of its kind - he reluctantly gives it a try. Thus, Severance the healer is born. All he wants is to quietly explore on his own without having to deal with other people. Unfortunately for him, there's a few problems with that plan. Not only did he choose a class that's in high demand, but some players just won't take no for an answer. And the game NPCs? They definitely have a mind and an agenda of their own.
