Longlisted, Wattys 2018
✅ COMPLETE
Jocasta's nineteen years of peaceful existence in a little village of the Kingdom of Ontur blew up in pieces without much warning: Grandmother had a secret, an old pact with a mysterious man-a pact that, apparently, Jo and her new tagalongs - a flamboyant mage, a goofball knight pledge and a young alchemist-now had to take care of, thanks to the untimely death of the King of Ontur. A quest to find an ancient place, concealing an artifact of unmeasurable power and rumored to be deadly. And posthaste, before it falls into the wrong hands. That's something all grandmothers ask of their granddaughters sometime in their lifetime, right? And all that was at stake was the stability of the kingdom: no pressure.
Set in a world where magic is vital, where mages are as equally feared and shunned as they're needed. A temporarily Kingless kingdom where vultures wait for the perfect time to take a plunge. A world where secrets and lies are as abundant, dangerous and necessary as magic. But something else brews in the Kingdom of Ontur: something bigger than Jocasta and her Grandmother's secrets.

The Atonement of a Writer
Lilianne Marineau, aka Lili, a struggling writer like you and me, wakes up to find herself in the body of Arielle Dumont, the female protagonist in her own, half-written novel. What would happen next? She sure as hell doesn't know. At first, all Lili wants to do is survive, and is overcome with the feeling that she had been bound by chains of her own making. Soon enough, though, she realizes she had been atoning for the wrong thing--and maybe, just maybe it was not her fault. A story of a writer who has to live as a character in a world she hasn't quite fully developed yet. A terrible writer with terrible concepts of magic in a fantasy world--and yes, there are glitches. TW: anxiety/depression/existential crisis esp in the earlier chapters, but quite mild, nothing we all haven't experienced before (I think anyone would reasonably panic in MC's situation). Still overall fairly lightheartedConcluida
Reincarnated as the Fated Villain
COMPLETED | VOLUME ONE | It began as the usual flow for a reincarnated story... Aerra believed, as a young girl, that her second life was nothing more than just about legends and prophecies like any other; meeting handsome guys; and spending heart fluttering days of youth idly. But slowly... the web of fate spun into a vast tale of an adventure for the young clever Aerra in her journey to a realm where darkness and light elemental magus exists and her long golden sheltered life as a Duke's daughter is but a flawed facade. The darkness that lurks within her... the beckoning shadows... forged alliances and deceptions... and an ability that she never thought could touch the span of time. Join her in her quest TO DISCOVER the truth on what lies beyond the centennial rituals in summoning a Priestess; choosing a Familiar; and her inescapable destiny as the fated Fallen one. The story and adventure of a hapless maiden reincarnated for centuries begins! ___________________________ [Inspired by some fantasy RPG games I played and some animes/mangas I have encountered, admixing reincarnated novels as it's backbone.] ~~ ɪғ ʏᴏᴜ ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴀᴅᴠᴇɴᴛᴜʀᴇ ғᴀɴᴛᴀsʏ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴀɴ ᴇʟᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ ᴏғ ᴀɴɪᴍᴇ, ɢᴏ ᴀʜᴇᴀᴅ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍʏ ᴡᴏʀᴋ! ᴀɴᴅ ɪ ʜᴏᴘᴇ ʏᴏᴜ ᴇɴᴊᴏʏ!!~~ Date Started: November 21, 2017 Date Finish: January 19, 2019 Highest Rankings attained: (By category) # 10 in Action-adventure # 43 in Fantasy # 08 in Original # 01 in AgeProgression # 03 in Dark Fantasy # 08 in Villainess # 36 in Reincarnation # 05 in Journey # 01 in Shoujo # 02 in Timeskip ___________________________ [[Disclaimer: All pictures or videos used in this book is not mine, all credits goes to its respective creators/owners]]Concluida
