(Discontinued) The Forest Of Monsters (An Original Story)
I basically took ideas/monsters from movies, books, and video games (mostly video games though) and combined them to make a book of horror, action and love. Hope you enjoy it. Also keep in mind this book is a "work in progress". All monsters and characters from movies/books belong to the original creators. This story sprouted from a short story I made in high school in like 2013.Complete
The Hawaiian Special Forces
This is the story I'm writing for NaNoWriMo 2015. The goal: 50,000 word RAW draft written entirely in the month of November. Unlike most of my stories, which I prefer to edit before posting, I'm actually going to post updates to this at the end of each day in chapter-sized chunks. The idea behind this story is that a terrorist attack in the near future causes the US to go hyper-isolationist, to the point that it abandons Hawaii and Alaska to fend for themselves. They do, forming the United Pacific States (maybe with a few other island countries). Hawaii then goes on to turn itself into the new world police with stealthy, genetically modified cyber-soldiers. I'm marking this story as mature because there will be action scenes, and probably some interesting perspectives on nudity and relationships. I'm not planning on anything explicit, but this won't be a kids book. Validated winner at 50,040 words!Complete
Hell Flower
||WATTYS 2021 SHORTLIST|| ||FREE STORY WITH PAID BONUS CONTENT|| Allison, the front woman of rising rock band Hell Flower, has been experiencing bizarre blackouts and other strange symptoms. In a fateful night after performing a show, she loses control and commits a crime she can't take back. On the run for her life and from the law, the race begins for Allison to find a cure for her curse before it takes her humanity, or worse, her life. The only ones who might know what is going on and be able to help are her parents. Too bad both of them are dead . . . or so she thought. *** This was my project for #NaNoWriMo2020 . The entire novel was written within a month, and I achieved my goal on November 30th. This is a spin-off to Make Them Scream. It can be read as a stand alone story; however, reading this before Make Them Scream will be a spoiler.Complete
Over the Wall: A Collection of Short Stories (NaNoWriMo 2014)
This year for NaNoWriMo, I am writing a short story anthology. It will feature thirty or so short stories (my hope is to write one per day to fulfill my 1,667 per day word requirement) about varying things. Each morning, I will randomly select a number between one and thirty and I will look at the corresponding list of first lines I will have. I will take that line and write a short story using it and then the next day I will do the process over again (some stories might relate to each other, some might not). Anyway I will edit the story for that day and post it here. It may not be posted exactly on the corresponding day, but in the end there will be thirty short stories. P.S. Although these are somewhat edited they are still rough drafts so please treat them as such.Complete
Night, Forgotten: Draft 1
A desperate new mother must piece together her memories from the most violent night of her life - and confront the truth about the ghosts that have been haunting her ever since. ***This is the first draft of my first novel - soon to be published (improved and expanded) by W by Wattpad Books! I wrote this original version at the rate of a chapter a day during #NaNoWriMo 2017, incorporated feedback from Wattpad readers into a second draft over the next few years, and submitted it to W by Wattpad Books for publication. An updated, expanded version of "Night, Forgotten" hits bookshelves 11/1/2022 - follow me to find out when you can pre-order it!Complete
Illogies Un
A few seasons ago, I participated in NaNoWriMo with the goal of writing a story a day for the entire month of November. I was able to do this and ended up with well over 50,000 words for the month. This book ended up with around 43K words, but it is missing a few stories. I didn't want to put anything that goes with "Pearls of the Mother" in the "Illogies." Each day I sat down to write, I had a different mood or something else I was thinking about, and I let that guide my writing process. I think a couple of these may end up with follow-on stories or maybe even books of their own. I hope you enjoy these; I know I do.Complete

The cursed mirror
Halloween collab story me and my bf wrote for a contest. It's extremely personal and it refers to irl situation that are hard to handle. This story is the biggest finished project I've ever done. The final length is 17k words. This story starts light and soft and slowly escalates into madness. Please, if you can't digest blood, violence and swears stop right here and don't read further. I did try my best to contain the gore and I avoided to go in details about wounds but I couldn't avoid simply sentences like "The knife dug deeper into his arm, his screams echoed through the entire mansion." so, yes you've been warned.Complete
