When Meghan Byer's daughter finds an injured fawn in the month of December, the weary mother of two doesn't think much about it. It isn't until more baby deer begin turning up at their doorstep that she realizes something is wrong. With help from her ex-husband, Meghan and their kids are on the run to try and escape what is happening to them. Threatening notes are being left for them to find, fawns are showing up with collars but no identifiable homes, and terrors are being inflicted by a stalker.
This is an abnormal Christmas, and one this family will not soon forget.

White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔
❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.

Flickering Creatures | ONC 2024 Longlist | ✔︎
When Bryony -- herbalist extraordinaire -- goes missing, Bella knows one suspect stands above the rest. The village's aspiring second witch, Daphne, comes from a family that's tried to take Bryony down before, and Daphne seems determined to carry on that legacy. For someone who's always been terrified of Bryony, she's a little too keen on looking into the disappearance. There's just one problem. Bella's insufferable fellow familiar thinks the kid is innocent... and he's been right about worse things before. If Daphne herself is to be believed, clues on the disappearance lead a whole lot closer to home than Bella would like. As the evidence mounts, Bella must choose to either stand by her values and the woman who raised her, or seek what might be a truth she would rather not uncover. Prompt #81: The town's witch has gone missing and no one is looking for her but her two familiars - a crow and a black cat, plus the teen who has always been scared of her. ❖❖❖ Written for Wattpad's 2024 Open Novella Contest.

✧The Earthe of the Elves✧
"Upstairs!" I hear a yell and pounding footsteps. I crawl out of the window until I'm hanging from my hands. I take a breath. I let go. ~ Living in a small town with a single mother, Mia Glenn never expected anything special to come of her life. She never thought she would go on an adventure as harrowing as the stories she read. Until one day she narrowly avoids being kidnapped, discovering in the same day a whole new universe that she is supposedly a part of. As she navigates the elven world of Earthe with the help of a particularly attractive elf boy, she learns secrets about her identity and her father's, of whom she believed had ditched her and her mom at an early age. Soon Mia discovers that peace isn't as easy as it seems, and while Earthe may be beautiful, there are dark parts that are creeping back to the light. Even in a world of perfect beings such as elves, lies can be spun as precisely as an arrow can pierce a target, and evil can sneak up on you when you least expect it. Mia is used to reading about this kind of stuff, not living it. Safe to say she finds herself in one hell of an adventure. - - TW: if you need a tw for fighting, violence, weapons, blood, death, etc. I would read with caution (I don't get into any gory details, but there are scenes w/ this) I will put tw's for the more violent scenes.Complete
The Storyteller - ONC 2022
Nine-year-old Amy Winter's holiday plans have gone from exciting to total disaster. How is she supposed to have any fun being packed up and sent to stay with a weird relative she can't even remember? And Aunt Penelope is as weird as they get. With her tangerine curls and old-fashioned clothes, she looks like she came straight out of the old storybooks she collects. What type of person owns a two-story house with a face living on it? With doors that open and close on their own, and a staircase that never ends. Amy is turned upside down and inside out as she's thrown into a world where one's imagination holds all the power. Where Magic becomes part of her everyday life. One that includes a talking cat with a top hat and a Pixie King who believes she is a Storyteller. Forming true friendships with the most unlikely of creatures helps Amy understand that not everyone has to be her friend. And the friends she does have, are worth fighting for. Book 1 of the Storyteller Chronicles. Entry for Open Novella Contest 2022. Based on prompt #15-Being a single child has pros and cons. Being stuck with a weird elderly aunt for the holiday certainly counts among the latter. Or does it...?Complete
The Masquerade of Shadows
This is a fanfiction I wrote in informal script format of the Youtube channel, Shiloh and Bros. Don't worry, all is family friendly! It does involve some SCRIPTED ship romance, for example, M&M, J+G and the Sunrise duo/Sunshinez, nothing at all inappropriate though! I even created some of my own characters as well! If anyone from S&B is uncomfortable with anything in this story, I will either take it down or alter it ASAP, no questions asked. Know that I do not intend to make anyone uncomfortable but that I just want to express my side passion of writing by writing about something that I love dearly. Please do enjoy and let me know what you guys think and if I should continue writing these stories (I already have another one in mind lol) !! :3 Description: The M.O.M. Agency is called to visit a raelo they've never been to or heard of: the magical kingdom of Lysara, but not completely for your typical reason. They find themselves invited to a masquerade ball! To make things more interesting, all the members split up and leave for the raelo at different times! However there is a plot brewing: a plot to assassinate one of the agency members. As the M.O.M. come in, knowing nothing of the identities of either the target nor the assassins, they must reintroduce themselves to each other under different names and team up with newfound friends to crack the case. Many even find love along the way. Will the members of the M.O.M Agency be able to solve the mystery and save the target while also putting their best feet forward? (This story will be the starter to multiple branch-off series, I'm thinking 2 right now)Complete

I SAW SANTA KILL SOMEONE
Celeste Gray thought it would be nice to stay in a cabin in the woods. Being able to be alone, left with her thoughts, finding nature, and the nice cozy feeling of warmth were what she needed. Which led her to book/rent out a cabin for the whole month of December. Spending the holidays alone shouldn't be too bad. I mean, there's a reason she's alone in the first place; this is what she needed to move on with her life. So everything should be fine. Celeste was wrong about that because the moment she decided to take that trail in the woods, she knew she fucked up. Especially when she saw Santa Clause, not dropping off gifts, not with his reindeer or his sleigh, but standing over a dead body. She just saw Santa kill someone. Ji-Cheol Kim is not your average man, he does something for a living that is not for everyone, but someone has to do it, especially when it's getting justice in a way for people who deserve justice done that way. He was doing his job, which he is very good at when someone who wasn't supposed to be there ended up being there. Now his plans have changed, which led him to do something he doesn't mind doing, finally being able to spend the holidays with someone. Even if the person doesn't want that, she has no choice but to accept it. Neither of them was expecting this to happen. Two people from different worlds who ended up bumping into each other are now spending the holidays together. This was far from being a Christmas miracle.
