A zombie apocalypse story, my favorite kind of story to write... enough said.

* DEEP SORROW
The work we were doing at the bottom of The Cauldron was important stuff, several scientific breakthroughs were made. Everything was going to change, and it did, in the worst way possible. We unleashed something sinister, and now we're trapped 8,000 feet below water and we don't even know what IT is. All I know is that people are dying, and whatever is causing it is messing with the reality we once knew.

Our Conscious Fields; What is living?
Slow paced narrative set in a world awakened to panpsychism and innate abilities following the fall and rise of society. A gentle approach to world building with a bit of humor, romanticism, and just enough hints of drama without going into it. When everyone writes about how it could all go wrong or what happens after it does; who wants to read about what happens if it just goes right for once? Still conflict and drama but, the hard work is already done. Now you just get to see a glimpse of what happens in a reality where it all works out. Work in progress - Inspired by Ready Players?; One Chaotic Answer This will be a slower update than Ready Players? but hopefully be more full in edits and depth. Comments and suggestions considered, otherwise please enjoy as this book and story unfolds. Thank you

UPDATED AS OF 8/19/17 & SMALL DISCLAIMER: As of the recent update, all swear words are now uncensored. Expect some sassiness from your main protagonist, as well as action and adventure. Have some fun reading! Yes, I like to fly. But I don't like to fly in space without any oxygen. Yes, I like seeing victory. But I don't like to be victorious over a friend and a sibling. Yes, I like to continue living. But if that means staying in the dark for millions of years... It's just not worth it. *~*~*~*~~*~*~* Now is a finished work Original pictures by NASA, edited by me, will work for a new coverComplete

INTERSTELLAR NIGHTMARES - DISTANT TERROR
INTERSTELLAR NIGHTMARES VOL. II After their short break, the team of dwarves dive back and deep into new zones that they've never seen anywhere else! Spirits are high in the group, as their money's growing more and more, and new modifications are coming... though their jobs are starting to get tougher. This decology of books with an included short story will focus on the character William Bronzegut, the designated Driller of the group of four. Will this remain, or will tragedy strike the group? An apology on the random aspect of the books: I do apologize, as the books seem to float in random directions compared to normal story books. This has two reasons. First, I am a mediocre writer. I've only wrote short stories before, and when I did attempt to write a story years ago on here, I never finished it. That book was called Mark of the Mafia, and it was an area me and my friends focused in years ago. I will try my best to improve throughout the series. Second, Deep Rock Galactic tends to be very randomized, as factors of the game are decided by RNGs. From something as simple as which of the three dreadnought types will come out of an egg to something more complex as when a loot box spawns, where it is in terms of map area, and what's inside it in terms of cosmetic loot. A lot of things are random in Deep Rock Galactic, thus they will tend to be here too. Again, I do apologize for the random stuff in this book so far. I hope it isn't too unengaging, and I do hope that it is a good series, or at least mediocre. I also will take constructive criticism as best I can, but sometimes I'm a little stupid and don't know how to exactly implement something. Thank you if you read through this, and enjoy the Interstellar Nightmares series. Rock and Stone!Complete
Death's Duty
(18+) *Complete/Unedited* ---- "You are death." I heard the grin in his tone. "Death's duty is to take care of the already departed. Newly deceased, and previously deceased alike." ***** Morrigan Wraith lives a double life; one not many would think to question. While on the outside she looks like a normal human detective, underneath all of that lies a grim reaper. Reapers were created at the beginning of time, formed to be unemotional and detached as a soul's transport to either Heaven or Hell. But Morrigan is unlike the rest. She was created with a defective heart - one that felt emotion, and one that got her into more trouble than she ever imagined. (18+ for language, violence, and sexual situations)Complete
The Shack
I watched as my last chance of escape was knocked from my hand and slid under my bed. My last bit of hope to break from this candy coated nightmare, slipped from reach. My right arm was then violently twisted and pushed behind my back. I yelped in pain. His sweaty palm covered my mouth, muffling my cries. New tears sprung in my eyes. My vision became blurry. That familiar feeling of dread crept up my spine. It warned me, but did I listen? He knelt behind me, pushing my arm further behind. "I'm not losing you... again," he whispered in my ear. His deep voice, laced with venom, lust, and desperation. The hairs on the back of my neck rose up. That's it. That's the end. No new beginning. No end. No hope. No life. Just emptiness. Just that vague emptiness. I'm sinking. And you can't save me. A story inspired by @shelbytreeComplete
