When she goes to sleep, twelve-year-old Raine Swalmika is finally free. The girl can do anything her heart desires in her dreams, as she's been an effortless lucid dreamer all her life - or, that was the logical assumption. Upon discovering that she's been blessed with the powers of a DreamWalker, one who treads the line between Dream and Real, she's both elated and scared. But, with a few simple lines of rhyming prophecy, her entire life is thrown spinning out of control. In a world where dreams come true, how terrible are your nightmares?

What if someone was interfering with your dreams? Why do dreams seem to tell stories over which we have no conscious control? Who decides what gets into our dreams... ...and what gets out? What if the line between stories and reality blurs? If our own story was told would we really be the character we think we are? Who says that our personal perspective of reality is the only one... ... or the real one? What if travelling in time was possible for you? When would you go and would you be able to get back? If you met yourself would it really be you... ...or another person very like you? Book 1 of the epic series Tales of Strangeness and Charm. Follow Temporal Tantrums: To Discover If Reality Can Get Any Weirder Every time you think the plot has reached peak absurdity, someone pulls the rug out and exposes new depths. Is there wisdom in the chaos? This unpredictability mirrors the twists and turns of time travel, where nothing is ever as it seems. Because It's Not Just the Characters Losing the Plot In this universe, narrative amnesia, time loops, and characters with overlapping manifestations in different stories leave you wondering who's writing whom. This highlights the chaotic, mind-bending nature of the time travel narrative. Because It'll Make You Question Your Own Reality You'll start to wonder if the random events in your life are part of a greater narrative or just cosmic chicken scratching. This suits a time travel story where reality and timelines blur, keeping readers on edge.
Dark matter (Self published in 2015) First edition.
To Quinn, When you read this I'll be over at Zen's place for a couple days. Just letting you know that I have shared a part of my journal publicly. I mean in the online world. Be aware that I've only used your first name, but others have been named. Some of our actual conversations were recorded in this journal. I guess sort of like a book even though writing isn't one of my better strengths. Buddy, that keychain you gave me changed many things. I began sharing this in July and I made my last post early on New Year's Day. You'll be happy to know that the plans for the new center are locked in the safe. I look forward to working with you in this new year we find ourselves in, and please forgive me for telling tales out of school. Your friend, Ash So now that the description is out of the way I can break that fourth wall. The idea for the description was recommended to me by a very good friend since I didn't know how to describe this journal which took place in real time. Dark Matter is a chapter of a much larger work titled "Chronicle of Rouge hill' which I've been writing since I was a teenager. I had started in early 2009 and quickly shelved it in 2010 after I saw "Inception", realizing the ideas were too close. It was picked up again in October of 2012 when I realized what it had to be: less focus on the technical aspects and jargon, and the addition of a love interest. Also, the mission of the "Order of ravens" was changed simply to collecting dream tech. All ten parts were written during the period of October 2012 to March 2013. The idea was to begin posting it on blogger.com in July and it would end in real time, on new year's eve. The events of my real life have indeed influenced the writing. It should be noted that errors in sentence structure are deliberate. A.P.L ©2013 Andre Lalonde. All rights reserved. Painting by Tom Park. Used by permission "Chronicle of Rouge hill"Complete

The Dream Train
Fourteen-year-old Ana and her sixteen-year-old brother, Sam, are lost in the woods, cold, tired, and hungry. Their only hope is an old train station in the woods. When a train stops at the station, they are sure they are saved. The train seems familiar, like something from a story their Grandmother used to tell them, but the train isn't quite what it was in Gran's story. This story is an entry in the Open Novella Contest 2022. The prompt was "When Grandma told them about the train that comes once a year to take children to the land of dreams, the siblings thought it was just a silly old legend. But then, they heard a steam whistle in the middle of the night." I'm taking that idea but changing it pretty drastically. There's a grandmother, and siblings, and a train but that's about it. **Trigger warning- the story includes an attack of a sexual nature. The attack is not graphic.**Complete
