    Mother Nature is cruel, but humans are worse. In a world battered by colossal sandstorms, Shon has lived his entire life as a second-class citizen. There is one way out: By mastering his people's innate ability of heat manipulation, he can become a Stormrunner - humanity's last defender against Mother Nature, and the only force capable of destroying storms. But as a new wave of storms approaches - bigger, stronger, more unpredictable than anything before - Shon must rise to prove his worth... or watch his worst fears come true. What to Expect: - Man vs. Nature and Man vs. Society Themes - Magitech science fantasy, biology-based science / magic, hard science explanation - Multiple POV, morally gray characters, underdog MC - NOT a purely action-packed story, lots of other scenes, dialogues, internal thoughts, etc.

    Elias Thorne is one week away from losing everything. His childhood home is in foreclosure, and his only hope is a rusted iron key and a set of GPS coordinates left by his "crazy" late grandfather. The coordinates lead directly into The Blackwood Sector-a massive stretch of wilderness walled off by the government twenty years ago. The official reason? "Environmental hazards." The rumors? Something much more dangerous. With a debt collector at his back and a dead man's warnings in his pocket, Elias crosses the fence. But the inheritance isn't a pile of gold-it's a secret that has stayed buried for a reason. In a forest filled with lethal traps and silent watchers, Elias quickly realizes he isn't the only one hunting for the truth. To get out alive, he'll have to solve his grandfather's puzzles before the forest-or the people guarding it-claims him forever.

    The Pacific Ocean is no longer a destination; it's a graveyard. When Flight 815 shatters over the deep blue, structural engineer Mark (Aaron Eckhart) and Professor Lee (Ben Kingsley) find themselves leading a small group of survivors on a half-collapsed raft. But the crash was only the beginning. Beneath the surface, an ancient hunger is waiting-a relentless swarm of Great Whites led by a prehistoric king. As thirst, paranoia, and a shadowy corporate conspiracy begin to tear the survivors apart from the inside, Mark must fight a war on two fronts: the predators in the water and the monsters in the boat. In the deep water, the only thing more dangerous than the sharks is the truth about why the plane fell. "Some secrets are better left at the bottom of the ocean."

    The James Webb telescope put up late last year discovers much more than expected. It reveals the early fate for humanity. I wrote this short story as a project when I really should have been revising. It's about the new James Webb telescope put up by NASA late last year, and how it discovers something horrifying out in space. Writing this I managed to break a lot of the rules of physics and make up a lot of technical terms :D I've posted it on some other social medias but thought I would add it here
