Fall semester. 1997. At a strange Southern college, freshman Tim's eerily prescient Student Handbook tells him he's going to fall in love with 6'6" sophomore Joanie. But Joanie has more important things to deal with than a weird crush - like a creepy English professor, a hallucinogenic drug that's chipping away at her sanity, and a war between rival secret societies that could destroy the University before Tim and Joanie find out if their love is real, or just fiction.
Recommended if you like: impossible architecture, books that can tell the future, made-up games with overcomplicated rules, portentous graffiti, secret codes, first love, intense hallucinations, 80s and 90s pop culture, a world that's just a couple degrees off from reality, and a coming-of-age story set in a manufactured community that lets you try on different possible futures - aka college.
New chapters of The Boy in the Tunnel post every Friday.

Altered
Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.Concluida
Red Rover | gxg | Wattys 2023 Winner | ✔
[Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner] The Redding takes you if it knows your name. That's the rule that's kept Meg alive --- or awake, rather --- since the night the world went to hell. Nobody knows where the red stuff came from, but it acts like water, it's in the water, and it falls as rain every night. The people it captures drop like puppets with their strings cut. They're asleep, not dead, and they can be reawoken. But then they just try to kill you. Meg and the other survivors she's befriended think they've found a stable equilibrium, six weeks after the catastrophe began. In an empty town, there's not much to do except innovate new survival methods. Meg's crush is the one to discover that Morse Code, like writing, is a safe means of communication. That's all fine and good until the nightly rain begins. Raindrops, as it turns out, can make dots and dashes, too. The Redding can talk. And it's telling her to run. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner.

twisted beautiful things
The leaves hadn't even turned brown before the first suicide of the year. At St. Briar's University, the stakes are so high that at least one suicide is expected. In a world full of privilege and royalty, poison and snakes, students are expected to remain as close to perfect as possible-or else. One particular suicide sets off a chain reaction of ghostly events in the students' lives, forcing the students to choose between love and survival. Ugly secrets are uncovered and pretty lies are told, weaving a story in which everyone only cares about image, perfection, money, the social hierarchy, and status. Smile and you will be rewarded, lie and you will be praised. the car a person drives, the clothes they wear, the way they speak, act and breathe determines their worth in society-and everyone wants to be worth more than anybody else. >>> ""Somewhere along the long twisted road we fell off the path and spiraled into beautiful madness.."Concluida![Trepidation [Book 1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/255439736-256-k945108.jpg)

It's too soon, embarrassingly soon. "Don't you fucking dare." His voice is hard, demeaning, and that alone makes my insides tighten further. The pressure becoming unbearable. Ethan's hand grabs my wet hair, twirling it around his hand before he pulls me up by it, and I wince slightly before sighing as my back hits his chest, his cock still buried into me. He palms my breasts, my nipples hardening further, and he rolls my right one between his fingers before pinching it, and I whine at the feeling. Dickhead. "Cum for me right now, Francesca, or else."Concluida
Everything Hurts
I knew what was coming later tonight, not only at home, but on the way there. I knew that reacting right now would just make it worse though.

After another one of Jason's violent rages that is impossible to hide, Alicia is finally able to get away from the abuse though.

Our Souls Tieds (English Version)
Beyond the doors of Juilliard University in New York, love and magic find their way, soul mates will be reunited after years of separation, and demigods will fight to keep their heritage. Luciana is a 19-year-old demigoddess mistreated by her family of demigods, with whom she shares blood but not powers. Rejected because of her anomaly, the young woman moves to New York with a single goal: to make her passion for music her profession and avoid relationships at all costs after her last boyfriend left her traumatized and unable to let a man touch her without provoking anxiety attacks. All it takes is a mysterious letter from a secret society of demigods at her new university for Luciana to discover that the universe of divinities is following her closer than she ever imagined. And what she didn't know was that, in the shadow of the stars from the moment she took her first breath, Luciana had been linked to the most powerful man in the land. A soulmate bond with no limits, inherited from their ancestors and created by their Goddess herself long before they were born. Tyler High, the country's most famous and powerful demigod, had always lived with his friends, who had become his family since the death of his parents. The man had given up hope of finding his soulmate, but when he discovers Luciana's existence, he'll do everything in his power to win her heart, even if it means crossing boundaries and becoming overprotective and controlling. Luciana doesn't believe she belongs in this supernatural world, and Tyler never thought he'd be able to love anyone, but the two soulmates find themselves faced with a choice: deny their love and heritage, or accept the call of a destiny they thought unattainable...
