The economy is dominated by the exporting of Erchius Fuel. However, researchers have exposed the dangers of the substance. In response to this, the Intergalactic Community has started banning the use of the fuel. This has significantly threatened the domestic economy and threatens the existence of the Erchius fuel companies. When things couldn't get any worse, a prominent socialist politician called Remus Marcellus has started to call out the Erchius fuel companies and their robber barons and has advocated for the prohibition of Erchius fuel. However, the barons won't go down without a fight. Will their companies survive the controversy?

Mirror Sky. Part 1 - Blissful Nemesis
The future is predetermined. It can't be changed. But who casts the future in stone? It's you, me, and every one of us. The iron grip of our fate doesn't come from gods or physics but from us. You are oppressed by your future self to walk the one and only road. Knowing the future changes nothing - this knowledge has already been written into your fate. Time travel is meaningless for the same reason - all your meddlings had also become a part of your fate before you even embarked on your journey through time. Could this strange duality of free will and fate be challenged? If so, what would it take? How far are you willing to go to change your dark fate? Is the risk of erasing the universe from existence worth your brighter future?Complete
MINDSLIP
MINDSLIP is the catastrophe which hits the Earth at 8.15am GMT next Wednesday morning. It began six hundred and fifty years earlier when Betelgeuse fulfilled its long-held prophecy to turn supernova. The radiation, gamma rays and gravitational waves hit the Earth at the same time as a coronal mass ejection. The combined bombardment causes all creatures on the Earth to swap minds, leaving people in animals, animals in people, men in women and children in adults. The nightmare which follows becomes a social and economic catastrophe. Geoffrey Arnold becomes a key figure in the government catastrophe committee, formed to resolve the myriad issues raised by MINDSLIP. Power generation, the health service, farming, pay, pensions, education, the banking system and asset ownership spiral into chaos. In addition, Geoffrey must save his wife from an imminent premature death brought on by one of the MINDSLIP effects. MINDSLIP is a realistic, frightening and sometimes amusing work of imagination which explores how people and families react to the world being changed beyond recognition. Note: MINDSLIP had been acquired by a publisher who, regrettably, has now folded. Rather than put the original version up on Wattpad, I have decided to give it a considerable edit. I'd love to know what you think. The early chapters might disturb, but hopefully they will also make you think about how you would deal with Geoff, Andrea, Angus, Caroline or Allan's situations.

Ultimum Carceron
A gloomy, gothic and frightening meditation on guilt and the nature of evil, ULTIMUM CARCERON takes place in the future, millions of miles from Earth, where the worst of humanity has been sent to the prison of Ultimum Carceron. While mankind has made home on colonies and space stations in a luxury amid its perfect machines, Carceron remains a black spot of complete mystery. The prison's mythology has only grown from its recollection by those who have been released, and from there erupted into countless rumors, each more ludicrous than the last. On the Europa Colony, Theodore Arkight lives an average and virtuous life as an engineer, and is expecting a child with his fiance. When one of his friends desperately needs money for a political campaign, however, Arkight seeks illegal means of acquiring money. If he gets caught, he could risk being caged in Carceron, and he has no idea what surreal environment he would find there, or if he could survive it. *This story was on the 2018 Wattys Longlist.
