Video of a Civil War soldier walking down a sidewalk in Nashville and then vanishing quickly goes viral. A farmer in Vietnam disappears from his field as his horrified family looks on.

Moira Dunn, a theoretical physicist, along with top scientists from around the globe, is 'invited' to a secret government base, where the group learns a rip in the fabric of space and time threatens the entire planet.

Gavin Rivers is a freelance reporter who latches on to the story in Nashville. Once he realizes Moira has disappeared, Gavin turns to a different kind of investigation, trying to find his friend and break a life-changing story.

Time distortions worsen as the Earth's orbit moves it closer to the anomaly. Moira and the other scientists must find a way to close the rip before the planet, and everything on it, disappears.

Starpiercer: Sunlight's Edge by Neptondoodle

Nobody said Rock Hauling would be easy. Throughout settled space, terraforming is the fuel that drives the interstellar economy. For some worlds, this is easy. For others, lacking resources, or on the periphery, this is an unattainable dream. Through the eyes of workers, astronauts and intellectuals, Sunlight's Edge follows an attempt to revitalize the crumbled terraforming project of the barren, poverty-stricken and resource-poor planet of Tylo. To carry this out, the beggared planetary government has commissioned the crew of the aging, if powerful asteroid-cracker Caroline Rowland to make the three-month journey to a distant asteroid belt and tug a selected asteroid back into orbit for conversion into a space station. This is difficult enough by itself, but located in a strategic demilitarized zone between two rival interstellar hegemons, Tylo and it's project may be the flashpoint for a conflict of apocalyptic proportions, with the Caroline Rowland and her crew as the spark that lights the tinder. This is the debut novella for the world of Starpiercer, a planned series of novels set in the 200-world region of Solace with accompanying illustrations, sketches, maps, technical details and more. Read along to meet alien species, experience real and speculative technologies, and follow a sprawling interconnected narrative over multiple novels and multiple series, with fully realized histories, culture groups, physics, biology, anthropology and thousands of pages of worldbuilding. This story has been fully written, and more sections will be published daily, hourly, or in other chunks.

They All Carried Ghosts

20 parts Complete

The world has been changed by a series of massive earthquakes that no one knows the causes of. Very few people seem to be left from the rubble but a small group of people that have forged out a living on New Virginia Beach. Two of them, namely Ezekiel and Milena, have questions about the pasts that they do not remember. Everyone has questions of why things are the way they are but life must go on as long as it lives. However, as these people begin to discover the truth of what happened, a series of events begins to unfold that could reshape the whole world again. (Sorry that I changed POV in the middle of the story. I will go back and edit the whole thing to third person one day =B )
