Starbright: The Quest
Ellalael is a world bound to the stars through light and magic. Its races are varied and gifted with unique magics of their own. Ruled by the mysterious and benevolent Starkites from their city that only appears at night under the stars, it is a peaceful and beautiful world. Six hundred years ago this all changed when an ancient foe and its Dark hordes invade, somehow banishing the stars from the sky and driving the remaining elves, dwarves, dragons, fey, giants, mer, and Atha'ir into hiding, their hope and magic depleted. Since then magic is weak and few of the races leave their hiding places during the day, let alone at night, which had been the best time to be awake because it was under the stars. Now something has happened. The power dynamic has shifted. Starlight has returned to Ellalael, carried within crystalline amulets and lending the power of the elemental Ithran to their unusual bearers: humans. Rylan and Lona are out for a morning run when they suddenly find themselves somewhere that is definitely not Earth. Adventure, full of danger and heroism, awaits them as they journey all across Ellalael, meeting the different races and learning why they were chosen to be the champions of the stars.
Zombies Vs Aliens: Respawn
A comic apocalyptic sci-fi romp. The zombie apocalypse has come and gone, the world has ended, humanity has crumbled... Nobody told the aliens.

Struggling to wrap her head around being a zombie and already Li's existence is in danger thanks to impending alien invasion. It's going to take more than a handful of quirky zombies to stop them.

Word Count: 105,000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ He turned slowly back, dreary eyes meeting mine. The towering man was nearly seven feet tall and all bulging muscles. His hair was dark and cut long skimming his smooth angled jaw. Brows watching me with the same intensity as I was watching him. Very lovely rich tan color. Shirtless and barefoot, but wearing simple leather pants, with some kind of pack hanging to his hip. Stomach raw with some deep gash and body littered with cuts. The entire picture of him was genuinely mouthwateringly handsome, but with the dagger still held in one hand entirely too deadly. "Stay right there Dothraki!" I called, my rifle finally having something in the crosshairs again. I'd never watched the popular show, but the videos I saw sure had him looking like he could play one of the built characters. The dagger dropped to the ground and he fell to a single knee after it, though he didn't bend to pick it up. He bent to ...bow? His head stayed inclined as he bent and spoke. His voice was smooth and husky, deep and baritone. Exceptionally beautiful. "Earth female safe." 1st in Aliens: 09/21Complete

After Surviving The Apocalypse, I Built A City In Another World
[Congratulations, Terranian survivor #99598, for activating the Universe Assistance System!] Althea, along with the remaining 1% of the population of their home planet, stared at the holographic screen in front of them in confusion.

The survivors were all very depressed. First they were forced to survive in a zombie apocalypse, and now they had to survive a new world altogether? It just so happened that Althea was one of the few people who got the Lord Token, the ticket to controlling a territory---a supposed safe haven for her people.
