Environment Stories

When the glaciers melt and the mountains flood, its up to a few frostbound souls to save their drowning world. Himara reads like a myth unearthed: lyrical, symbolical, and steeped in the grandeur of nature's wrath and wonder. It is both a hymn to the earth's beauty and a funeral song for those who dare defile it. All my work is my own; written with love, not AI.

Two strangers in their mid-sixties come together to turn their dreams into reality. Their three-year adventure takes them through extreme sailing in some of the wildest and most remote waters on the planet, and they do it in comfort and style. Many parts of this book read like Action/Adventure novels and, at times, Thrillers. Some of the experiences, both afloat and ashore, are so incredible that some might consider them Fantasies. But it all happened, and as the adventure unfolded, I wrote a blog that gained over 3,000 daily views and grew beyond a million words and over 2,500 images. This is a condensed rewrite of that blog, but with Wattpad's limit of twenty images per chapter, I've included only 2,450 here.

A young snake tries to survive in a ruthless world. Everyone wants him dead - humans, birds of prey, even fish. Follow his journey as he faces countless dangers and crosses paths with unlikely friends and brave young animals. The damage humans have done to nature is devastating - and it must change. I hope this story helps open your eyes, and maybe even your heart.

Earth, 2070 AD. 18-year-old Kai and his twin sister Zel are survivors. Two years ago, they lost their parents in an apocalyptic environmental disaster that ravaged Earth, killing many. Kai and Zel now live a scattered, nomadic existence along with other survivors. On a planet left devastated with few natural resources available, Kai and Zel work hard to stay alive. But while Kai goes deeper into Earth for answers, Zel looks to the stars. She is convinced that their time on Earth is limited, and that in order to save humanity, they must travel to Mars. And when a Martian spaceship crash lands into Earth near the Blue Ridge Mountains of their childhood home, Zel sets out on a journey to find a new home on Mars, the Red Planet. *Cover Design by @CelticWarriorQueen17 *Longlisted in Wattpad Open Novella Contest Winners, April 2019. *Second Place Winner for SciFi, Majestic Universal Awards, May 2019. *Second Place Winner for SciFi, The Creativity Awards, June 2019. *Winner, Most Engaging Characters - Fiction, The Futhark Awards, July 2019. *Second Place Winner for SciFi, The Grace Awards, July 2019. *Entry for Science Fiction in the Wattys, 2019. *Featured, Wattpad Science Fiction's Space Opera Reading List, 2020.

Poetry Collection // Upon the Stars We See is a deeply personal and politically charged chapbook that weaves together haiku, prose poems, and spoken word to explore the intersections of Indigenous identity, environmental grief, and the quiet violence of modern existence. Through minimalism and lyrical force, it constructs a celestial mirror-reflecting not only the realities of colonization and capitalism, but also the resilience, memory, and inherited strength of those who live through them.

Honest disappointment Raeburn Howell is the poor son of a woodsman with little future ahead of him. Being too small to take up his father's trade, not smart enough to be a scholar, and unable to love women, he is ridiculed as an outsider. Having few other options, the woods have always been his place of comfort. Little did he know that the woods would be comforted by him as well, in the form of an exceptionally handsome plum tree.

The Institute for Cetacean Advancement quietly controls Earth, harnessing the intelligence of captive whales and dolphins to solve human problems. Dr. James Morris is their leading bioengineer. His best friend is Coda-9994, the genius and potty-mouthed hybrid sperm whale destined to be sent off to the ocean planet Ouroboros. With humans having rendered Earth's ocean uninhabitable, the ICA insists it's the only way to find a new homeworld to serve mankind's needs. But Coda doesn't want to go. He grows angrier at Jim with each passing day for doing nothing. Desperate to redeem himself in Coda's eyes, Jim finds himself tangled in a conspiracy to bring the ICA to its knees. But how willing is he to get his hands dirty? How far will they go to break humanity's cycle of self-destruction? Based on the short story that took first place in National Geographic's "Planet or Plastic" contest. *Contains some foul language.* ______ Dream Awards - 1st place Sci-fi Majestic Awards - 1st place Sci-fi

The Last Well of Zarathen A war fought not for land, but for the right to drink. The massive, impenetrable city of Zarathen is the final bastion against the "White Rime," an ecological blight that has poisoned the land and turned the mighty Nakrith River into a toxic, metallic sludge. Inside the walls, the ruthless Lord Khesh seizes control, knowing that the city's only true defense is its dwindling supply of clean water. Their desperate existence is shattered by the arrival of General Vykir and his vast, exhausted army. Vykir is not seeking conquest; he is leading an army of refugees, their families dying of thirst and sickness, and Zarathen's clean cisterns are their last hope for survival . As Vykir launches a relentless siege-a war of attrition fought with the fury of trapped animals-Khesh is forced to abandon all honor. He relies on Shem, a former slave and engineer who knows the city's hidden tunnels, to root out internal traitors and protect Zarathen's vulnerable underbelly. The conflict culminates in a devastating, high-stakes moral compromise: to save Zarathen, Khesh must destroy the very thing he fights for. He gambles everything on one agonizing choice: poisoning the city's own water supply and seizing Vykir's non-combatant families as leverage. The Last Well of Zarathen is a grim tale of survival where the cost of victory is paid in moral debt, forcing a society to choose between its soul and its survival. When the walls hold, who becomes the monster-the invader driven by hunger, or the defender willing to commit atrocities to survive?

Woodpecker says the end of the world is coming, there's a dead body on a bed, an empty field in Somerset is somehow connected to a secret government project, and Samantha Brock is the only one that can discover the truth of what is happening and stop it, but then that isn't really the point. In the days following the death of her mother, Samantha (Sam) Brock goes walking in the woods. She is visited by a woodpecker who, speaking in her mother's voice, prophesises the end of the world. She tells Sam that she must discover the truth behind what is happening and prevent it. The impending "death of everything" acts as a backdrop to the personal grief experienced by the central character, and the three minor characters of the novel. Each is mourning in their own way, and each is unknowingly important to unlocking the secret of what is causing the sky to turn green and snow to fall in June. Ben Erwin is Sam's recently ex-husband and a journalist chasing a story about a mysterious government project, Stuart Levitsky is a prime number obsessed mathematics prodigy, and DCI John Geering is a detective investigating the discovery of a dead body in a forensically clean flat in London. With the help of Woodpecker, who appears several times to deliver important information to Sam, their stories cross and finally collide. As the emerald-coloured apocalypse approaches they are catapulted towards a dramatic ending with equally dramatic conclusions. I hope you like the story and find time to vote and comment - love hearing your thoughts.

A collection of poems about the environment.

Felix Swift is a teenager with a big problem; He just can't stay awake. And falling asleep at the wrong moment has already caused him more trouble in the past year than most people will ever experience. Relocating to the countryside with his family brings with it a whole new set of problems. Missing persons, freak storms, crop circles, all-night raves, the local gang, not to mention the challenge of baby-sitting his annoying little brother. His time in the 'arse-end of nowhere' is proving to be every bit as wild as his years growing up in South London. But as Felix soon discovers, village life also holds the keys and the clues to the adventure of a lifetime, and an opportunity to nurture the seeds of friendships that will last forever. ***************************************************************************** Dear Readers, If you are enjoying The Brightlings, please don't forget to vote for each chapter, and feel free to comment (provided you don't post spoilers).

So much for an easy way to go. After thirty nine long years, each squandered day chained inexorably and uneventfully to the next, this is how it ends. How appropriate. Blinking back tears, Joanna shakes out another handful of pills into the palm of her hand... Environmental catastrophe, dismissed by many as myth or propaganda, is now an impending reality. Tides are rising and storms are brewing. Meanwhile, in a small-town suburban home, a small family is fraying at the seams, and on the brink of a collapse of their own. Following the suicide of his wife and imprisoned by grief, Arnold witnesses the inexorable downwards spiral of his neighbourhood on television, from the confines of his living room. Fifty years on, his son Noah is thrust into a dense, compact Britain he hardly recognizes, adrift in a society in the throes of transformation. Years later, the experiment falters and Nature threatens to take over entirely. Noah’s daughter Eve faces unimaginable consequences and her will to survive is tested to its limits... THE FALL OF MAN begins in the Britain of today. Three successive generations struggle to exist in a future rife with change. Their story chronicles a series of cataclysmic, global events, from the perspective of an all-too-human family. Two new chapters to be added each week...
