ABC kiss me
"...I don't want to be with you", I sigh and even though I am crying, they are not tears of sadness, but relief. "What do you mean?". "I DO NOT LOVE YOU AND NEVER WILL!", I cried. "But I want to be with you. I want to have kids. I want to rule the omniverse by your side. I want you". "I'm sorry, but I don't. The voice in my head says no". "You are dumping me based on a voice in your head?". "I am dumping you based on what I believe. You are my best friend and that's all I want". "But babe..." "Don't Babe me. I love you as a friend", I shout. Those words stung like a hot knife through his heart. I turn to the other hunky beast, his eyes hopeful... Trigger warnings Sexual content Coarse languageComplete

The Space Spinster (Slow Updates)
A dutiful, ace soldier from Mars faces a dilemma. She can accept an offer from an infuriating gen-eng man from Venus, grab her loyal cat + dig up her inner rebel and maybe become the first human to explore the Galaxy.

I got cocky and wrote a space opera, yes, with aliens and fast spaceships. Become a part of the audience so small, it's exclusive! First published: long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

Bright Lights & Dark Secrets: A Sci-Fi Anthology
Six stories. Six situations. Six dark secrets. Colorful casts. Captivating worlds. Crazy conclusions. Humanity rises and falls. Some folks set the world on fire, others burn, many don't care what they do as long as something more powerful tells them what's right or wrong. The question is whether it is in our nature to defy our nature, whether it is a good thing, or whether we should know when to stop... Available stories include: * DUPES: Clones vs. cannibals: who will win?! * THE DEUS ISLANDS: A prison ship on its way to a penal colony is jeopardized by the presence of a sinister supernatural entity. * SEEKING SENSATION: A young woman searching for her missing sister becomes acquainted with (and suspicious of) the charismatic employee of a social media platform that allows users to relive other people's memories. If you are a fan of dark sci-fi anthologies such as Black Mirror and Love Death + Robots, then this is the book for you!
Voyage of the Star Killer
Space Opera This is the voyage of the StarKiller, a ship of over 5000 lives. Exploration, battles, love, military.... Feedback welcome! Should I break each chapter into episodes and expand on them (essentially, each chapter would become its own book)? With everything going on in 2020, I wanted to portray my own feelings and hurt over the racism, the segregation, the spiritual, emotional, and mental attacks, as well as the physical harm we are causing our fellow man (humanity/mankind/personhood). I began writing this book in 2017. I dreamt it in 2018. I fleshed it out in 2019. And here we are, more than halfway through 2020, and I'm finally putting it out there. TRIGGER WARNING: Briefly discusses instances of abuse, sexual assault, rape, bullying, stalking, etc. Read with forewarning.Complete
