Thirty One Days
As a way to better myself as a writer I've decided to challenge myself this October. This book will begin on October 1st and end of October 31st. Everyday I will push myself to write and publish a chapter. I honestly do not know where this book is going, what will happen, or how it will end. But that is a journey we can take together! Since this is the month of October there will be a spooky, Halloween spirit, twist to this story. This challenge was inspired by a friend of mine, who wants to better herself as an artist, participating in Gore-tober. I went searching for a writer's verse and, when I was unable to find one, I ended up creating one myself!Complete

The 7 Nights of Halloween
Halloween has always been a simple holiday. Wear a costume, go trick-or-treating. go to a party, watch a movie, eat a bunch of chocolate. As for the Corneille baseball team, it's anything but simple. One week before Halloween, they begin to receive ominous texts and letters from an unknown person, telling them to do various tasks otherwise they will suffer horrible consequences. At first, they all think it's a prank but when creepy things begin happening to them, they begin to think otherwise and decide it might be best to just listen to the anonymous messenger. No matter what these tasks might be.Complete
