Loosely inspired by the events of the 2020 Covid-19 outbreak, The Tale Of The Plague is a short horror mini series focusing on elements of psychological horror and existential dread.

Follow Charlie, an ordinary guy living his life when the outbreak happens and the population of earth is quickly held under duress by the sickness.
As it quickens and becomes known as the Plague, the remaining population begin experiencing horrific nightmares in spite of them being a symptom experienced only by the Plague victims.
Before long Charlie then finds himself in the midst of a terrifying turn of events rapidly spiralling out of control and into the macabre and surreal.

Follow his journey into the terrifyingly surreal situation created by the Plague where even complete isolation cannot provide refuge.

A Country Life by tristam_james
22 parts Complete
Three hundred years after the fall, the known world is beginning to regain a semblance of order, with the sword the ultimate power once more. But not everything of old was lost, and there are some that will exert deadly effort to obtain what was left behind. Orphaned, plague-marked and mistrusted by the community he lives in, a boy must come to terms with the fact that he is different from everyone else, but is soon the focus of unwelcome and deadly attention. Separated from her father, a young girl has to learn to survive in a foreign land haunted by tribes of ghosts and roving bands of piratical thralls to a sadistic King. A watcher keeps lonely vigil from within a fortress that has been under siege for hundreds of years, while a soldier dies for the twenty-third time, and dies again while wondering if he is going mad. First started in 2015, this story is at 50k+ words, but was removed when a plotting hiccup was encountered. I now intend to split it into three parts, and this is the complete Part 1. Part 2 will begin once I've finished editing another work... Please vote and comment, as your input will help shape the story. Enjoy!

Mal has been living in The Ruins at the age of sixteen. She is born, lives, and adapted to her world. That's her daily routine, day and night, surviving. With her companion of friends, her whole world that she knew is going to get bigger, will change when things start to plummet their sanction.

Ashes to Ashes (Book 1 of 2) A ZOMBIE FICTION by OPDistress
32 parts Complete Mature
Follow Alexander "Alex" Ashton as he faces the new reality of the world. 2015, the world is suddenly and almost instantaneously ravaged by a killer plague that kills and reanimates. The virus is spread by bites, and only the fittest survive. Alex, and his three best friends must learn to survive on their own in the world. Will they last, or will they fall to the disease like the many have before them. This is NOT my first story, but I still have much to learn, any feedback will help. M rating due to language, violence, and possible scenes (always say it just in case something does happen). Enjoy! Next 'Book' (if you could call it that) is in the works.
