Ever heard stories of people who die, but come back to earth? Maybe you've heard of all three afterlives; purgatory, hell, and heaven? Perhaps you learned it from a class about religion in school. Maybe you just saw it in an episode of Supernatural, or on some daytime talk show.
Well, I'm here to tell you the only truth I'm certain about:
I have been to hell.
I'm back.
I have unfinished business.

The Dark Mysteries of the Afterlife (TDMotA)
I wake up, bleary and uncertain of where I am... only to be told multiple times by multiple creatures in my dreams, no, not dreams... my NIGHTMARES... that I am in hell. But that doesn't make sense. The last thing I remember is hitting my head. This is probably a coma nightmare. Yeah, that's all it is... ... right?Complete
The Past Haunts Me
You know that near-death experience only a few people ever go through? I'm one of them. My mother says I was in a car accident with my older brother, Eric. I was basically dead until the doctors revived me. As for him... they couldn't save him. Sometimes I think it was my fault. Maybe I was the reason he died. Or maybe not. Because lately, I'm starting to remember things that don't make sense. And I'm not so sure my mother told me the truth about what really happened that night.
The Sixth Sense
There is theory, that when a person experiences a near-death, he or she comes by to a coma, going in an alternate universe where all souls dwell to await their final judgement. The "Borderline" as they call it. In here, they experience "bliss", the perfect description of happiness. That's what they said that you would feel right before you die. But if you're lucky enough, you get to experience it and wake up the next to live to tell them the truth about the afterlife.Complete
Guardian Reapers - NaNoWriMo2017
Where do you go when you die? For this kid, it's Purgatory. In fact, quite a few visit Purgatory, but most everyone moves on. Not this kid. They've been saved, by Death himself, for a very different mission. They will be reaping and advising souls, keeping the very balance of the universe. They will be the newest guardian reaper. ____________________________________ He raised the scroll again and proceeded reading. "We have evaluated your life, and you do not clearly fit into a category of the afterlife. For this reason, you have been sent to purgatory to be advised. After your trial period, I will decide where you fit, or whether you'll need a second trial for advising." He paused, looked up at me, and frowned. "What's your name?" "Why?" "It doesn't show up on the document. It should fill in automatically, the second you've been assigned for advising," he explained. "Odd. Very odd. Come with me, you're a separate case." "Separate from what?" "Everyone else, of course." ______________________________________ (Written for NaNoWriMo2017)Complete
Realities
What is real? I know what I saw and experienced, but THEY say it isn't real, that it never happened. THEY say that I'm here for my own good. Who are THEY? Why do they get to decide? I'm so tired I just want to go home...how can I go home?Complete
Lost
You always hear people say that when you die you either go to Heaven, Hell or even Purgatory--- but the true answer is so much deeper, so unbelievably mind blowing that it can only be told by someone who's already dead.Complete
The Control Group
In Purgatory, the job of the dead is to help the living transition to the other side. A small crew of "jockeys" take over the bodies of the living during their final few seconds, relieving them of their suffering. Well, that's what Eva thinks. But the mystery is deeper than Eva realizes, and when the life she left behind starts to creep in around the edges, everything she thinks she understands about reality is about to be lost in the fog. ***Standalone short story, first book of the Resurrection Protocols series.***Complete
