On a bomb-threatened Spaceport hovering above Earth, Dorothea arrives from Mars with an expiring passport. Her credentials are bad, her memory poor, and her cat already shuttled along with her luggage. Dorothea is at a loss. Spaceport Security takes control, hauling the questionable traveler into the one interrogation stranger than the other. Without sufficient information, suspicions suddenly snowball. Accusations blow out of proportion, and a bomb is not the only thing threatening to explode. Spaceport personnel take sides, Dorothea finds allies, and the tables of the corrupt Spaceport are suddenly turned.

Proposal of Submission - Psychic the Saga
Hello, I want to first thank you for taking the time to read my proposal, as I know that there are many others you must work through who have done the same as I; please, trust me when I say that your attention is greatly appreciated. I am messaging you today because I wish to submit a selection of excerpts taken from the series of science fiction/science fantasy stories I have written; called Psychic the Saga. I'm a former United States Marine, and a currently enrolled Aerospace Engineering undergrad at the University of Central Florida in Orlando. Over the course of the last eight years, during which the earlier stated experiences have occurred in my adult life, I have continually written the story I am now presenting for your consideration. Outside of writing as a hobby, and what was needed when submitting assignments, my only writing credential is a published engineering research paper in the European Physical Letters: 'Tailorable Twisting of Biomimetic Scale-Covered Substrate'; of which, my main contributions were that of the experimentation, and the editing/proofreading of the paper. In regards to my submission, the story of Psychic follows our trio and the rest of their friends as they fight for peace and stability within the newly unveiled realm of psychics, once hidden amongst the world for untold millennia. The statistics of Book One are as follows: word count = ~205279, page count = ~396, target audience = young/new adult (16~34 yr. of age). The reasoning behind this age range is two-fold: the concepts, morals and lessons, themes, and situations/ problems faced by the main characters are both relatable and beneficial for this age group; also yes, there is foul language, and yes there are very visceral depictions of violence. Also also (lol), I wish to give a disclaimer in terms of any romance, love, or anything else similar; I intentionally never take the story beyond anything more intimate than a kiss. So there. Sincerely, and with the utmost gratitude,Concluída
Max and the Universe - Book I
THIS IS A DRAFT. I EDIT IT. ITS ONLY MARKED COMPLETE CAUSE NO NEW CHAPTERS. What if there's a universe where this book is real? According to the multiverse theory-yeah, probably. And in that universe, 14-year-old Max Carsley is trying to survive being a teenager and a prince, all while living in a star-spanning civilization full of alien species, political chaos, and secrets that could shake the galaxy. Flying cars? Check. Wormhole portals? Check. Friends who actually make life make sense? Super check. Max's world is beautiful, messy, and more complicated than he ever signed up for. But the deeper he digs, the more he learns that ruling a planet is the least of his problems. This isn't your average Sci-Fi/Fantasy story. It's a cosmic mix of teen drama, space politics, and autism. And yeah, there's swearing. Yeah, it's a draft. But every chapter matters-so don't skip any. (Note to author: rewrite this)Concluída

I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room
"This book speaks to anyone with a neurodivergent brain, that may feel like an alien here on earth. I swear Browning made me laugh and cry and question reality...sometimes all in the same sentence." -JD Todd, author The universe is a very strange place. It will take even stranger heroes to save it. Potto is dim-witted, extremely forgetful and incredibly naïve. He wasn't always this way. Aye-Aye is devilishly shrewd and has boozed his way into a comfortable existence of incompetence and sleaze. How they ended up being two of the most wanted aliens in the galaxy is anyone's guess. Chased down by every oddball bounty hunter in the known universe, and befriended by a libidinous assassin, a fire-breathing reptilian, and a telepathic tree, their misadventures take them past Earth (the mall planet), to a floating sex circus, a planet of killer stuffed animals, an underground spaceship impound lot, and to a planet of reasonably priced bungalows. All while flying around in a ship powered by the brain waves of a psycho killer. A great prophecy proclaims that only "one of light, and one of dark" can save the universe from the dictatorship of The Node. That can't be Potto and Aye...Potto doesn't know what the word prophecy means, and neither know how to spell it. Part sci-fi epic, part absurd dark comedy, I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room is a comment on human behavior, depression, anxiety, and self-esteem. But way more fun than that sounds. So, do up your space seatbelts...it's going to be a bumpy ride. Despite the lack of potholes in space. (Sci-fi /Dark Humour/Absurd) *Completed! Enjoy! Highest rankings: #1 Adventure #1 Action #1 Science Fiction/Sci-fi #1 Misadventures #1 Absurd #1 Mindbending And all because of YOU. Thank you. *Now available in paperback from Story Well Publishing anywhere you like to order books! www.storywellpublishing.com Merch available at: www.theseanbrowning.comeConcluída
Humanity has Migrated to Mars (and the Moon)
No longer being written, unfinished. --- Xenorantofaloria, otherwise known as Xeno, is a human living on Mars. Though, that isn't surprising anymore. In the Year 305, everyone is living on Mars. And, well, the moon. What is surprising is the utterly impoverished state of Xeno. Even compared to the other inhabitants in her hotel with a surprising carrying capacity. So you can just imagine how it felt when she suddenly got a really well-paying job that doesn't require a degree. However, she discovers that truly, the job is worth exactly the pay. And considering the price of the pay, Xeno is scared by the prospect of not having an updated will. Nor the money to cover the costs of her probable funeral.Concluída![Born in Sin [BOOK 1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/101291139-256-k457146.jpg)
Born in Sin [BOOK 1]
"Trespassing in a commoners home is 1 year in prison...2 if you're discovered to be a thief. The laws on Crex are pretty strict... but to trespass into the palace?" She let out a low whistle. "That's pretty bad." Great. Neo thought, this was just what he needed. Not only was he currently being humiliated by wearing this movement restricting collar, but now he was currently being sassed by a Vaulkarian female that should be in bed and resting. ~~~ Neo Adranni is a charming, puns ahoy kind of guy. In fact, he's not just any guy. He's secretly a prince from planet Valaria who ran away in search for something greater, and so far he thinks he's got it. The life as a thief has been WAY more exhilarating then sitting around in a palace learning proper etiquette. (And of course it's always nice being Vaulkarian, the most gorgeous of humanoid aliens, especially when your in the mood for a quick bump in the night.) Jacquelyn Wake, a small servant girl with a lot of tricks up her sleeves. She's adored by the Queen of Crex, so much so that she's even considered to be the adopted daughter. She works to earn her keep, to help in any way she can if there's a job to be done, against the Queen's wishes might I add. However, despite all this, there has always been something... off about her. She's always watching. Always listening. And always seems to be in the right place at the right time... A true tale of love that only just barely SCRATCHES the surface of what is to come for the galaxy. After all this is just BOOK 1 "Sometimes... Love is worth dying for."Concluída
