Anela (Ringworld 7-CR} circles the GV2 star Anelon in the Hermes Cluster. The endless day this makes is alleviated by a Nightshade, a half-ring that orbits within the orbit of Anelon. The Nightshade blocks the sun to make artificial night, where stars never shine. Solon abandoned Anela 125 years ago in the third year of the Grolon War. In RingYear 4 (RY4), the Nightshade failed. The architects and engineers were gone, leaving no one to repair the damage, and no space equipment to work with. The Nightshade broke up with some chunks the size of continents. Some parts disappeared, perhaps into the sun or wandering anywhere in the galaxy, but a few still orbit, casting sporadic, brief night shadows on the Ring. In RY125, Joss Anders lives in Hemmler City, managing the City's Recycling center. His Second-Class Degree in Mathematics, Astrophysics, and Celestial Navigation does not come with the near-automatic opportunity for marriage and child licenses. He lives the singleton life, common to most adult Anelons under 40. He and his best friend, Renny, enjoy the opportunities Hemmler City offers and find short or long-term Nightmates, known as friends with benefits. Joss's life takes an unexpected turn for the better, and over the next few months, he lives a future lost after college. Many anomalies begin to puzzle and worry him. Nightshades cast their shadows more often. Standard weather patterns change for the worse. Crop shortages raise food and drink prices. The birthrate is twenty-seven percent lower than twenty years ago. Joson repeats the calculation with the same result: the endless day of Anela will end.

Follow a group of crazy, fun, and likeminded group of friends in their early 20s trying to navigate adulthood. Whether it is a break-up season or dating season, these guys go through it together! A lighthearted read for bad days, happy days, and rainy days and sunny days!

In an era where time seemed to slip through our fingers like grains of sand, and distance kept us apart, there was a love so profound that it yearned for a connection beyond the bounds of mere moments. When modern gadgets and gizmos failed to bridge the chasm between hearts, the old-fashioned charm of a timeless treasure came to the rescue. For in those days of yore, where communication was crafted with heartfelt ink on parchment, the power of a love letter held sway. No instant message, no multimedia spectacle, nor virtual call could rival the beauty and enchantment that a love letter bestowed upon its recipient. Its essence was woven through the fabric of time, leaving a legacy of romance that endured for centuries. In a realm where the senses were enraptured by each handwritten word, the fragrance of love permeated the air. The soft rustling of paper as the letter was unfurled, the sound of the reader's heartbeat quickening with every turn of the page, all added to the symphony of romance. And so, as the years passed and the world evolved, the power of the love letter remained untouched by time and technology. For its magic resided not in the medium but in the heartfelt emotions it carried within. This grand tradition of pouring one's soul onto paper, just as the valiant priest Valentine once did, ensured that the spirit of love endured, making each Valentine's Day a celebration of the enduring power of the heart's desires.'

American divorcee April Waverly learns she is the heir chosen to inherit Oakton, Sir Drew Ramsey's home farm. Elderly, crippled, sinister Drew promised to repay her for her carer role in his last few years. He loved two things only in this world: his Siamese cat, currently Nala, ancient and sharp-clawed; and Oakton. The Ramseys received Oakton as a reward from the Conqueror through marriage to its heiress, and Drew would do whatever was necessary to keep Oakton in the Ramsey family. He was the last Ramsey, and he was prepared to solve this problem. April agrees to the obligations to inherit Oakton, for in addition to its worth, she loves the farm and Wiltshire. Ben Muir, Drew's unctuous lawyer and heir to the rest of Drew's large fortune, has control of Oakton and her until she actually inherits after Ostara. He wants her to inherit Oakton, for reasons she cannot discern. He knows too much about Oakton and her, and she begins to stand up for herself against him. The Spring equinox festival of the druids is the occasion for her to become Mistress of Oakton. A local sheepherder mentions the curse on the heir of Oakton to her, but laughs it off, as she is not a Ramsey. A bell that summons and repels a spirit monster goes missing, to the frenzy of the Oakton Druid cult. April hears footsteps following her around the Lodge at Oakton and items are displayed for her to find. Sheep are killed by a mysterious predator, and the guard llama is constantly alert. She finds a dead man floating in a bog at Oakton. She is falling in love with the handsome local vet who cares for the farm's animals, and thinks her feelings might be returned. April wants Oakton, not just the land and its value, but the home and future it promises her. Ostara nears, and April must face the forces that want her body and soul, and hope for help from those who stand against the evil that haunts Oakton.

TW: Mild blood and gore ******* An experiment gone horribly, as intended.

This is my story. It is pure and unadulterated. It is filled with passion and soul. The magic that flows through the pages is curated by imagination, timeless laughter, and the essence of a world created by the ones who dare to dream. I, too, dance on the wings of creativity. But there is one thing that shines brighter than the second star and ignites my intrinsic wish to explore the lands of fiction. Above all, there is light. ~~~ Cover by Ryn (@disney_fanatic36) Accolades: 🥇 1st in the Cupid's Charm Awards 2024 (One Shot Category)
