WATTY 2016 WINNER of the HQ Love Award! Strange Yarns is a ball of tangled tales. Twisted, knotted, and intertwined. Like Tales of the Crypt, the Twilight Zone, and The Outer Limits. Strange Yarns is not just a collection of ghastly tales, these are yarns, and yarns are sewed together. Follow the yarns and see the grand design... think of this as an evil quilt. Ghost, ghouls, and cannibals being studied for nutrition research, Strange Yarns has got it all. ALL EXCEPT HAPPY ENDINGS!!! (The Author's Lawyer's retain the rights to define happy endings.) I'd love it if you'd vote. And if you really like them please share with a friend. And if you hated them, please share with an enemy. *Josh Saltzman is a Canadian Comedy Award winning writer and director.

Kallai has a tendency to make things explode. Not on purpose, but every spell she's ever tried has gone up in a puff of smoke. Literally. And being the only mage in school who can't actually perform a spell has left her at the mercy of those looking for an easy target. It takes her meeting Shuu, a boy who claims to have been sent away from a war, to get her to really open her eyes to the world and her situation. But Shuu isn't safe to be around, and the longer Kallai is with him, the closer to the fire she gets. NaNoWriMo 2013

Sunflower is only one of several women chosen from a young age to be trained as bodyguards for Queen Demetria due to her resemblance to the young ruler. Over the years the Sisters have stopped numerous assasintination attempts by King Narcissus, the ruler of a immortal race of giants whose kingdom borders their own. During the latest attept, however, one of the Sisters manages to kill their attacker proving finally that the Deathless ones can in fact die. With this, the queen comes up with an idea to be rid of her enemy once and for all. Demetria offers herself as a willing bride...and sends Sunflower instead with the promise that should she succeed in murdering King Narcissus, she and her Sisters will be set free of their servitude. If she can make it back alive. "Sunflower" is a loose retelling of the Hades and Persephone myth inspired by all the many versions of the story that mention Persephone playing with nymphs in her mother's gardens before being stolen away.

After seventeen years of not quite fitting in, everything is about to change for Noel. With monsters, gods, cars and impromptu prophecies, this is the first time Noel is getting a taste of life - and maybe a little romance. Just a bit. A two part adventure of a seventeen year old seer, thrown into a new world that she has always been on the cusp of. Cover by Lovingmng - thanks so much, it's beautiful! {Just because I think I need to make it really clear -- this IS NOT a Percy Jackson fanfiction. I thought of this idea around 8 years ago, before I read Percy Jackson and I had had a class on Greek Myths and Cassandra the seer. However I also am a great lover of the Percy Jackson series. Any similarities are a coincidence of my own mind making connections to a book series I haven't read in around 3 years. So sorry if there's been any confusion, I didn't mean for there to be. I hope you enjoy the book.}

Unjustly accused of murder, the Demon of Wrath joins forces with the Archangel of Justice to find the true culprit. ____ Sannarah lives from one deadline to the next. As a Wrath Demon, she is obliged to provide a certain number of human souls to the Fallen God every month so she can stay in the Human Realm. If she fails to do so, she'll be sent straight back to Hell. And it's not a nice place, even for demons. One day she follows the shady tip-off and finds herself in the middle of a gruesome crime scene as the main suspect. The lead investigator Melkyal, an Archangel of Justice, gives her a choice: she can help him find an actual perpetrator and get a clean slate, or refuse and spend a few weeks in jail for petty crimes. With looming deadlines, she can't afford to waste time. But teaming up with an angel can't be a good idea. Even though he seems reasonable and focused on finding the truth, he's still a mortal enemy. Sannarah has an opportunity to topple the unjust order plaguing her whole life, but the chances of success are slim, and the consequences of failure are unfathomable. Melkyal must choose between blind obedience to his god and trusting his own judgment. They may have to take a leap of faith to save each other. ____ 🌟Shortlisted for the Wattys 2022🌟 🥇place in the Count Awards in the Paranormal category ____ The beautiful cover made by amazing @Lueur_laVespine

Hi! This is my first submission to Wattpad. This is a writing challenge I'm doing for myself throughout the month of October using a prompt list I found on tumblr, created by the user crockettmarcel. I will be crafting a story and updating it daily based on the prompts, which will be used as chapter headings. Join me on this journey! We begin with our main female character, Juliette, as she tries to inconspicuously buy groceries in her hometown, hoping not to run into anyone familiar as she grapples with her recent loss.
