    What will hopefully be a better rendition of Meta's Tale, which has needed a reboot for some time now. Updates will most likely be sparse, as the series in Project Genesis that kinda derailed Meta's Tale (completely my fault) needs to be finished before I can actually know what facts go where in some of the later chapters. Also, I hope to have longer chapters, considering some of the original's, now three years old, were under 1000 words. Very sad. No wonder it had so many, eh?

    Trapped in a surreal world, a writer finds their life eerily mirroring the events of a story they wrote about alternate realities. Initially bewildered and horrified, they slowly come to accept this new reality, but are left with a gnawing uncertainty about what happens when they reach the end of their own tale. Struggling to escape the predetermined script, they discover the limitations of free will and the fear of the unknown as they navigate through a life that is both familiar and strange.

    Predestination. What's supposed to happen has always been happening and will continue to happen no matter how many times you repeat the same time period. But not always does it make sense. Some events take place without any noticeable impacts in the surrounding. But take place, they certainly will. However small the event is, it cannot be bypassed. That's the rule of Predestination.

    The Christian church has, for centuries, debated over man's salvation. The big question is this: Does God choose some for heaven and others for hell or does man choose or reject God by virtue of his freewill? While this debate rages, some theologians who subscribe to Molinism, offer an attractive solution to quench the fire from this raging debate. Read more to understand this situation better...

One man finds that the answers are not always so simple. Imagine Mark Ruffalo as the man who has that chance, to undo what went wrong in his life, and then has to deal with the outcomes.

    A desperate deity realizes that it is time to leave the world of Earth, taking the alien people away and returning them to their homeland. She realizes that the hero to take them has not been conceived and begins speeding the process, disrupting the lives of her people. By manipulating fates, she creates an unlikely love triangle that will decide the fate of the alien people as well as her and the other deity that reigns over them. Author's Note: There are some controversial ideas in this story and I'm currently playing with writing styles. This is a rewrite of a story I wrote a few years ago. I'm open to ideas and criticism. I do not own the photo on the cover.

    Why do so many people on this planet believe in a divine being? Is it even sensible to believe in one? With increasing progression in human knowledge of the natural world around, there seems little reason to believe in a divine being. With this, the pressure increases on both the agnostic and Christian to abandon their search for the answer. Yet on the other front, the Christian also begins to face the rise of old enemies that once plagued Christian orthodoxy. Similar to its predecessor, this book and its compilation of themed articles addresses the issues in the logic, philosophy and thoughts of Christianity from a layperson point of view. Some of these articles serve to expand and clarify the points raised in its predecessor, and some on completely new topics. Yet unlike the predecessor, this book focuses more on the doctrine and basis of Orthodox Christian beliefs and how Christians can apply them to everyday life through articles that are once again, academic, reflective, and argumentative. Just like 'A Practical Guide to the Logic, Philosophy, and Thoughts of Christianity', this book is the result of a single individual's search for God. It promises to be challenging and thought provoking for the genuinely open-minded and interested. Even so, the articles are at best 'arm-chair theology' and are therefore meant to be easily understood by any interested agnostic and Christian with a slow yet provocative push into the basis of Christianity and her doctrines.

    In the City, it is widely known that free will does not exist. Instead, there is the Compound: a mysterious place where the Writers dictate the lives, loves and losses of everyone in the City. Little is known about them, except that they never enter or leave the Compound, and that they have been there for longer than living memory can recall. Penelope Ingeld was destined from birth to be a side character, living in the shadow of designated protagonist (and her best friend) Lillian. What she didn't bargain for is Lillian dying before their story had even begun. Whether at the hands of a rogue Writer, a twist in the plot or - the simplest, yet most groundbreaking explanation - a demonstration that the Writers cannot control everything, the fact remains that Lillian is dead. And now Penelope must step into her shoes, unsure whether her actions are truly her own even as she attempts to discover the truth behind the Writers and the City. However, the discoveries she makes about herself and her world are something she never could have imagined...
