Would you like a couch with that painting?
Obscurity is a way of life for Gavin Vonn Getch, a painter who works at a frame shop in a small New England town. His life changes when billionaire Gary Eastman enters his shop and becomes the ultimate patron: a lifetime commission for all his work in exchange for a crap-load of money.
Some of his artist buddies envy him and others think he's sold out. Curious as to where his paintings are being displayed, he makes a trip to the DLC headquarters, where a shocking discovery forces him to reevaluate his deal with Eastman and his identity as an artist.
Why does an artist create? What alternatives are there to completely selling out? Is there no genius-only marketing? The book is a satirical, and sometimes surreal look at the art world.
OK, I kind of went nuts.
Along with my book called Artifice, I'm including the 6 hour audio book on Wattpad. Since the book is written in first person, it made sense that I narrate the whole shebang. Instead of me doing bad versions of other character voices, I used more than 40 other voice actors to read all the other parts. But first watch the animated book trailer that was created from the audio book to get a better idea of what this project is all about. This is all in the video attached to chapter 1. The book is finished, I'll probably be posting 3 times a week for 40 chapters.

That night...✓
"So?" He looked confused. "She's y- your-" I gulped. "My what Aurora?!" He exclaimed angrily. I jumped. "Don't raise your voice at me! She's your daughter! The one night stand created her!" I yelled but not loud enough for any one else to hear. "What the-" he paused and looked at Ivory. I watched him silently. He turned to me again. "Would you say something?" I asked getting nervous. "What do you want me to fucking say?" He asked. "I don't know....." I trailed off. Humans make mistakes..... right? Yes, so therefore three people made mistakes that night. Logan made the first mistake. He cheated on Aurora. Aurora made the next mistake. She drank to forget the mistake Logan made. Ethan, the school's bad boy made the last mistake. He slept with Aurora without a condom. You know what that means yea? You're right, a baby comes. Ivory comes. (Baby gender revealed 😑) Aurora didn't tell the bad boy she was pregnant for him. But now she has the baby and she has to tell him right? I mean it's the only sane thing to do DNA is one of the solutions of course but not when the child looks exactly like Ethan. 😉. The bad boy is obviously not the most sociable person so it wasn't easy of course. For heaven's sake he doesn't even know this girl. But y'all agree that it's not easy to remember a one night stand when you've had many? Well....he remembered actually. Let's get into the story peeps!!!! See you there 😊Concluída
The Prince And His Arrogant Princess
I wrote this years ago; yt is very very cringy in my opinion. "How are you not afraid of me" Leo said while placing his arm on the locker only inches away from Aurora's face. "Maybe because you are a little bitch" Oh shit I know that I'm in trouble.. Not only because I just insulted the school "prince" or so I say "shit god", calling any guy a bitch makes their minds snap. As Aurora tries to walk away while 'Shit god' is still in shock, he pins pulls Aurora's wrist and pins her towards the lockers. "What did you just say to me?" Oh boy he is beyond serious... Aurora is just a average girl that enjoys ballet. And also a girl that doesn't know when to shut up.. Her normal life has turned into an adventure when she slaps the schools "prince" for "being a shithead". Will she act crazy in parties? Will she get into nasty fights? Will someone save her? To find out more check out this book.Concluída

*** "*Sobs* I'm so happy to have a character that's exactly like me." - @TakenUsernameSoz. "This story is so normal that it's unique; a breath of fresh air! Gives us normal girls hope, hi hi!" - @LocalSlayer "This book is seriously my inspiration to not be afraid to show who I am." - @Who_Says_Duh "THAT IS SO ME!!!!! IS THIS SOME TYPE OF VOODOO, MAGICAL BOOK OR SOME SHIT?!?!" - @ThePanther10101. *** Let's face it, none of those cliché situations from movies between a guy and a girl ever happen in real life. I'm not going to end up accidentally bumping into my future husband in a café, spilling a latte over him. I'm not going to go up to some random stranger and ask him for directions and he'll become mesmerised by the colour of my eyes and fall in love with me. The window of my bedroom doesn't happen to be situated opposite to that of a 'bad boy neighbour'. I was daydreaming, again. Something I do on a daily basis. Nothing different, right? Well, let's just say I didn't snap out of my little 'trance' until I saw a guy waving frantically at me, smiling. Oh shit, he's hot. He probably thinks I was checking him out. Great, now he's coming over. Kill me. *** • Highest rankings: #1 in Modeling - #1 in Awkward - #3 in Humor.Concluída
The Wrong Miracle
"What voodoo stuff did you give me, you Bokor?" The tunnel that his loud shout created in my ears is not far from competing with Laerdal tunnel. I frowned at him and gave him a pouted angry scowl. "That is called a charm. A charm is an object that can help you with your wishes." "My wish was to win the bid for the project. Then why did my opponent win it?" Huh? His opponent won the bid. Shit! Did I mess up again? Not possible right?! Someone did win the bid so the charm did work its part. I looked at the angry handsome devilish gentleman and scratched my head awkwardly. "Your wish was to win the bid. You did not say who should win the bid. So, the charm did its magic, you cannot blame me for your incomplete explanation." Looking at the man before me, if I weren't a beautiful, adorable and an attractive girl, he would've surely stomped me a hundred feet into the ground. Too scary!

Despite her constant mix-ups, her warm heart and wild charm made her impossible to resist. Idris Cruz Valen, billionaire business mogul, was the definition of control and precision. He didn't believe in magic or fate-until a quirky fortune teller handed him an amulet that would change his world, whether he liked it or not. Follow the journey of a misshaping modern magical magician and ruthlessly principled business mogul, filled with chaos, a little love, a bit of fun, a great level entertainment and a lot more... chaos. ~*~*~*~*~*~Concluída

The Myth of Wile E
Highest Ranking: #1 in Humor [FEATURED, SEPT-OCT] An idealistic poet refuses to budge from the last parcel of land a developer needs to acquire in order to build a shopping mall. (Literary satire with pop culture references and environmental themes.) synopsis: The Myth of Wile E. is a riff on the modern obsession with fame and acclaim, as well as a mediation on the artist's place in the modern world, as seen through the eyes of a naive poet who is made simultaneously pathetic and heroic by the pursuit of a singular goal. In this novel, we meet an assortment of eccentric monomaniacs, from mushroom hunters in search of a legendary truffle, to birders pursuing a possibly-extinct bird, to competitive Duck Stamp artists, to "the World's Foremost Living Statue"...and even a very stubborn spider. Meanwhile, our narrator--a terrible, yet persistent, poet--battles a ruthless land developer who's determined to acquire the poet's humble property, in an escalating battle of wills that spirals out of control when the media gets involved. With these quirky events as a backdrop, we gradually learn of the misfortunes that befell each member of the poet's family in their various misguided quests for glory. We also learn why money makes the world go flat, why talent is a white elephant, and what it means for parents to love their children "to pieces." Some of my influences are Richard Brautigan (especially), Christopher Moore, Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Robbins, and George Saunders, so if you like any of them, I hope you'll enjoy this, too.Concluída
