A Big Book of Short Stories by WGHTheKing

A collection of my ideas. While most could have been cared for and nurtured until they grew into fully fledged books, they have only matured halfway, creating a efficient way to get stuck in your head. I'll also post short stories that I may or may not try turning into novels. From "The Kid is Hot Tonight," a story about such topics as high school parties and domestic abuse. To "Just Another Nightmare," a story about a kind of hell you might never have thought of. This collection will likely make you question if something is wrong with me. Spoiler alert; there is. It will also show you the farthest reaches of the world and the furthest horrors that I can write about. If you want an update on how the next story is coming along, you can ask me however you want. Seriously I'm so so lonely...

My Zombie Girlfriend by spoffyumi

They all say Harmony is Bad News. Zane is about to find out just how bad. *** Zane is sure he'll be one of the popular kids in his new school - and Harmony is just the girl to help him. She's beautiful, a cheerleader, and obviously the most popular girl in school. If Zane can get Harmony to go out with him, he'll be golden. Brushing off his new friends' warnings as mere rumors, Zane woos Harmony... until her behavior becomes hard to ignore. Is her vacant stare because he's boring? Was that night he thought he saw her eating Coach Thompson's face simply a drug-induced hallucination? Or is it because his friends are right, and Harmony is the patient zero who started the zombie apocalypse? ***highest rank: #273 in Teen***

Fatal Attractions by SierraRoseBaldwinn

Scientists have discovered how to transfer an animal's DNA into humans, creating Miracle Juice; an injectable serum filled with heritable animal traits. With this power, humans could be cured of chronic illnesses, increase lifespan, and correct disabilities. Humans will become nearly indestructible organisms. Eighteen-year-old Juliet Harper was born with an impaired amygdala, which has erased her emotion of fear. Danger has become an addiction. She likes to live life dangerously, blind to whether or not she will see tomorrow's sun. When a series of unfortunate events sends her life plummeting into constant danger, even a risk-fiend like Juliet might be in over her head. Forced to survive through both a school shooting and the release of a violent, failed medicine, Juliet creates intricate relationships she had previously been able to avoid. All Rights Reserved.

AM13 Outbreak Shorts by SamieSands

The zombie apocalypse has arrived, the virus has been dubbed as AM13, and the human race is struggling to survive. Here are some short stories to accompany Lockdown, Forgotten, and Extinct (but they can be read as standalone)...delve in and enjoy life among the undead! Outbreak: No one has it worse than Rachael! First her parents make her move to a crappy new town, then Zac starts ignoring her, and just to top everything off...the rumours of a zombie apocalypse seem to have more truth to them than anyone could have imagined! Quarantine: Katie did not sign up for this when she went to medical school. She's now working as a nurse at one of the specialist medical facilities set up for the AM13 virus. She doesn't want the humdrum of dealing with sick, dying patients every day, she wants to be the hero who finds a cure! As the Lockdown starts, and more people with the virus are bought in, can she keep control of the situation? Crackdown: Oliver might have a slightly shady past, but he joined the police force to make the world a better place, how was he supposed to know the whole world was going to go to hell? Now, with zombies roaming the earth, he has to try and follow orders, whilst sticking to his (okay maybe newly found) morals and stop his old self from coming back. One Year On: It's a year into the apocalypse, how are our favourite characters surviving?

Don't Talk To Anyone | BOOK 2 by honeywriitings

(Sequel to Don't Talk To Strangers) It's been a couple months since the zombies had vanished. No more zombies. No more killings. And no more bad people. So they thought... Life is good, until something seems- out of place. Maybe it's a change in the weather or thickness of the air. Or it could be the electronic buzzing noise keeping them awake at night. The gang is suspicious, but nothing peaks their interests until one of them comes home infected. It's only a matter of time until the infection spreads around the rest of their body. It's a race against the clock to help them survive. Because the friends can't part with their own. They're family. And losing another person amongst the world is too much to handle. But if adding in revengeful ex-friends, hot summers, babies AND more zombies to the mix is what it takes to finally make these kids give up, congratulations. You got your wish. Not everyone is as strong as they want to be. Will they make it or break it?

Dissonance - Book One by B_Ander

Ever thought surviving first period-and facing her best friend's boyfriend, whom she recently kissed-would be the hardest part of her day. She was wrong. The world is ending. Literally. Between dodging awkward hallway interactions with her best friend's boyfriend and dodging the apocalypse, Ever discovers she may be the one person capable of saving mankind. No pressure, right? But just when she's barely wrapping her head around her destiny, a mysterious (and annoyingly handsome) stranger shows up. He drives her crazy, yet somehow feels...familiar. And he just might hold the key to unlocking Ever's forgotten past-and to stopping the strange, earth-shattering events unraveling the future. As secrets unfold and loyalties are tested, Ever has to make a choice: walk away from the chaos and pretend the world isn't ending-or embrace her destiny and risk everything to save it. After all, being a teenager is hard. Being the savior of humanity? That's a whole new level. *This is book one in a series
