Decater Collins takes a pointed look at modern society with ten fables that expose the emptiness and ambiguity of the institutions, customs, and relationships that we too often leave unexamined.

A young woman leaves her small southern town only to find herself face-to-face with a legendary leviathan of the Mississippi. A child prodigy exhibits the apparent ability to foretell the future but is an annoying presence to teachers and administrators. An overly polite girl gets unwanted advice from Baby Jesus.

These entertaining tales combine humor and insight to force readers to more closely scrutinize every day life and the absurdities that are often just beneath the surface.

Zero details, zero prep-just "handle it," like that's no big deal. Billy, The ancient vampire in question, fresh out of some centuries-long slumber, only to wake up to... the 21st century. We're talking smartphones, iced lattes, TikTok-none of which he even remotely gets. Now, Babe, the sassy and carefree young vampire, faces the challenge of "babysitting" an ancient vampire. But seriously... how do you even begin to teach a relic to roll with the times? Disclaimer: This book is a work of fan fiction inspired by my favorite actors, Billy Patchanon and Babe Tanatat.

Are You Sh!tting Me (Modern Cliches, #3) by AMLKoski
25 parts Complete
Book three of the Modern Cliche Series ~~~~~~~~~~~ Sup, my name is Sammi Catherine Knapper. I am your permanently exhausted, introverted twenty-five year old. The only thing I am above average in is the fact I can pull all nighters and still get to work in the morning. Yes, I have the super human power called being a night owl who has insomnia. It's incurable, believe me, I've tried. So with that permanently exhausted exterior, I have absolutely no fucking clue how to explain or account for the fact I had a vampire crawl into my bedroom at night trying to figure out how the whole blood sucking thing worked. Yes, I some how managed to have a baby vamp attempt to test his new vampiric nature on me. Thankfully, Jake (surfer dude turned bloodsucker), was just as confused as I was by his vampire abilities, drinking blood to survive aside, and we set upon a mission to figure out just what being a vampire meant and what he needed to do as well as track down his one night stand vampire daddy to give him hell. Teaching a vampire how to be a vampire, meeting a sibling group of baby vampires, starting a night time inventory business, as well as being kidnapped by an alcoholic vamp daddy, all I can say is: Are you shitting me?
