One storm can change the course of your life, just as one person can. Katrina was raised to be a nobleman's perfect little daughter but when a hurricane sinks her ship she is rescued by the most notorious pirate in the world. So, instead of growing up in a magnificent mansion with servants at her beck and call, she is raised at sea amidst cutthroats, learning how to wield a sword and fire a pistol. By the time she is 21 years old she is known as one of the most cunning pirates to sail the seas. Life on the high seas seems set for Katrina until she catches a thief trying to steal her most valuable possession. Now, she is wrapped up in a race to control the power of the ocean and should she lose, no one will ever be safe on the seas again. *ON HOLD* (Summary of the ending I imagined is in the last chapter) Trigger Warnings: Mentions of rape, abuse, violence

the ghost of you keeps me awake [editor's choice 2021 | poetry] [cover by @qixing]

Survivor. Torn. Sparky. Hurricane. Sister Nature. Rocky. These prisoners go by many names. When an average lunch goes horribly wrong, these fourteen SSA (School for the Super Abled) students are forced to complete a mission on the island continent Yorupi. This mission may grant them freedom from their dystopian department, if they can work together with sworn enemies and disreputable strangers, avoid accidentally killing themselves and survive all that Panterran nature has to throw at them. This wouldn't be too much of a challenge for these seasoned survivors, but there is more to Yorupi than meets the eye and this assignment may very well be the end of these unloved miscreants. Hope you enjoy, TheBluePoetess66 (Comments and tips encouraged)

A rebel double-crossed. A world fallen. And a relentless enemy who will not rest... Jack Gamble is a shattered man. His lover betrayed him. His contacts in the resistance are scattered. And his best friend may be dead. With the Galilei* Empire closing in, Jack's ship is intercepted by mercenaries under the command of Captain Ben Stone.
