An Unholy Sacrifice by KevinConmee

The story is about me and my journey through life. It always seemed to me somewhat self-indulgent and egotistical for somebody to spend time writing about their life and then expect other people to read it. I am not a writer, something I think all my English teachers at school would have concurred with-I was a mathematician-but I felt obliged to write my life story after my inner world conspired to write a response to the problem of Being. My Philosophy of Being is original; it flowed from my life journey over ten years like a stream from its source. I knew that if I were to reference my primary source, I would have to write it first. Reluctantly, I set about writing my life story, but as I wrote it, I realised there were other reasons why I needed to complete it, which should become clear as you read it.

Falling Skyward by DBWagner

Charred corpses and ash drifting amidst the falling snow. These are Lana's first memories in life-memories that begin when she was 11 years old. Whenever Lana tries to remember her life before, she finds an impenetrable, terrifying blackness. Only in her dreams does Lana find light, along with visions more vibrant than waking reality. When a traveling seer reveals secrets about Lana's past, it awakens nightmares and Lana finds herself hunted by ethereal creatures known as nightstalkers. While trying to escape, Lana finds herself inexplicably falling skyward-pulled into a strange land brimming with sunlight. In this new land, Lana begins to piece together the truth about her past as she searches for a way to return home and save her family. Forced to confront the life she had forgotten while facing terrifying new threats, Lana discovers a new power that brings her dreams-and nightmares-to life.

The Owl by DuckyandtheNut

A man wanders alone, lost in both time and thought in the quiet solitude of a vast forest. Under a watchful gaze, he confronts the fragmented memories of his past; his regrets, his joys, and the weight of a life lived. He relives moments of love, parenthood, and missed opportunities and finds himself reflecting on those moments of his life that consume him. This novella explores the nature of reflection, the human struggle to make peace with the self, and the choices that shape us through rich allegory and profound introspection. With stunning imagery and a narrative that invites readers to reflect on their own lives, this is a meditation on the burdens we carry and the paths we ultimately choose to walk. - - - Winner of the 2025 March Writer's Crown from the Watthub Community

Mt. Sensan-Ghi by kijknietlinks

A collection of poems and short stories interwoven in a larger narrative that served as a way for me to work through burnout. The tale of Estavir is a metaphorical dive into my burned out mind as he searches for deeper meaning and climbs Mt. Sensan-Ghi filled with trials to test his heart. This is my first published work of fiction. It was conceptualised during a burnout I experienced back in 2017. With support from family, friends and a professional with whom to talk, I tried working through the burnout over the period of a year. At each stage of my journey I created a story to help me process. It's bizarre, a bit dark slightly existential and close to my heart. Please enjoy.
