From Geneology to war - A compendium of Greek Mythology
A helpful guide to Greek mythology including the primordials, titans, gods, goddesses, monsters, heroes and more! Things to note about this story is that since I'm writing about real historical mythology, there is of course many, many, different variations, retellings and plots in existence for each one of the myths so I will do my best to comment on and add in variations when necessary, though in some cases I may just stick with the most common, my favorite or the most historically accurate depictions! "If this is just the original myths can't I just go on Theoi?" Well I try to recount all of the myths in an accurate but easy to understand way, which is quite difficult other places, though if you have any questions about anything, please just ask!!
THE ADVENTURERS
A COMPLETED BOOK When my children were little I would write bed time stories that I could read to my children. I love writing stories and my children loved for me to share my stories with them. This is one of the many books that I wrote for my children. My eldest loved Enid Blyton's Famous Five books. I was inspired by her books to write the Adventurers. I hope that this book will bring you as my joy and adventure as it has brought my daughters.Complete
No More Olympus
There are gods among us. Over 2000 years ago, Olympus was overthrown by the mortals who worshipped them, spreading them to the four corners of the earth where no one could ever find them, not even each other. Now in the modern-day, Athena, the first daughter of Zeus and the Goddess of War and Wisdom, lives hidden as an ordinary mortal woman who has a family of her own in rural Alabama. But when threats from her past threaten her new life, she must trudge back into the world she left behind, being forced to relive old conflicts, old regrets and old trauma. But no matter how long ago and how much one resists, the past has a way of forcing itself into the present and staining the future.Complete
Soul Escape
First book in the Tales of the Divine Universe series. Alice has lived a life of abuse, neglect and oppression. Despite being a genius with a perfect memory on the cusp of obtaining her PhD at an age younger than most people even enter university, Alice has been isolated and persecuted by her family since birth. Any source of solace, once discovered, is undermined or tainted. When her beloved laptop, which is both her long term escape plan and her current means of escape through aged RPG games, is broken beyond repair by a combination of malice and bad luck it all becomes too much to bear. Her soul cracks and she is plunged into a fresh hell as she must watch her own death before she can finally leave an uncaring world behind. When she finally achieves her freedom she discovers that the Cosmos holds far more than she ever imagined. The Greek gods are real (sort of) and she is offered the choice of a fantasy life in the main universe of existence, which resembles the games she so loves, or an eternity of peace in paradise.
