Hello everyone! Are you in for some adventures with faeries, mermaids, and arguments? Not all at once though, that'd be too much. And there are short stories about things other than faeries, mermaids, and arguments.

This book you're about to read is a collection of short stories. Each chapter is a short story and they are all independent of each other, unless otherwise stated. The majority of the stories in this collection are fantasy but there is also some that are realistic, dystopian, or supernatural. The organization is by the date they were originally published and I do my best to update as frequently as possible but I struggle with that immensely so updates aren't as frequent as I like.All Rights Reserved

It's Time to Choose, Soldier (BxB) by Soggy_Tortilla18

The world is now in ruins. Most of the world gave up on trying to keep the peace between countries leaving everything to fall apart. Now the world was just completely chaotic. But as we began to destroy ourselves we found the answer to end our war once and for all. Kids. Those who have the most energy, the most resistance, and the most impulsive would be the ones to save us all for the world's permanent end. How? Simple, they needed to learn to fight, think, and act like soldiers. But in a world, this catastrophic, is there even any room for to have a personal life? Room for love? (P.S. This book is under constant editing. There are some major changes that may appear throughout your reading experience. I'm not saying you have to but if you want, be on the lookout for any updates or changes to already published chapters. Aside from that, happy reading!) (P.P.S. This is my first original story that I've published so depending on how this one does, I'll gauge my audience and see what people want in the future from me and my writing)

The Golden Tide: Reincarnated As A Fish by space_swordmaster

One moment, she was an ordinary teacher. The next, she was gone, swallowed by a void of darkness. When she finally opens her eyes, it isn't to a familiar world-it's to the crushing depths of an endless ocean, her reflection revealing a body covered in golden scales. Reincarnated as a fish in a world she doesn't understand, she's thrust into a relentless fight for survival. A strange system binds itself to her, offering a single chance: level up or be consumed. The rules are brutal-eat or be eaten-and the ocean is teeming with predators that defy imagination. But as she grows stronger and evolves, she begins to see glimpses of a purpose she cannot yet grasp. The tides carry whispers of secrets buried in the abyss, of monsters sleeping in the deep, and of powers far greater than her own. She thought death was the end. She was wrong. It was only the beginning. In this world, survival isn't guaranteed, and transformation comes at a cost. The ocean waits, dark and unforgiving. Will she rise with the tide-or be lost beneath it?

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?
