All Stephanie wants is to look cool in trendy bars.
All LP wants is for the universe to stop collapsing.
Annoyingly for LP, Stephanie might be the only person who can help.

I can explain this book as a list of questions:
Why is there a poetry book from another universe in the college library?
Was there a universe before this one? And did any part of it survive?
Why is granddad's hot chocolate recipe so important to all of this?
Is there an afterlife?
Is time real?
What is love?

TO BE RELEASED AS A FULL-LENGTH NOVEL IN 2022/2023
[Open to tradpub offers, though I am enjoying some success with previous selfpub projects, so if I can't find an offer I like, this book will be self-published]

SPECIAL THANKS
I am finally at a point where I am getting a steady trickle of sales for Who Built The Humans?, the ridiculous sister multiverse to The Stephanie Glitch, so I now have the time to dive back into this universe.
I want to thank everyone who is buying and talking about Who Built The Humans? because without you, I wouldn't have the time to get back into writing with Stephanie. I have missed her terribly.

GROUNDHOG DAY mixed with SIXTEEN CANDLES and a splash of DOCTOR WHO. A boy forever reincarnated as himself meets his soulmate for the 200th time, but can she solve the puzzle and break the curse to make herself his last? ***** Martha Beckett's life is over, or so it feels after her father moves her from California to Illinois in the middle of her junior year of high school. But on her first day in her new school, she finds a peculiar boy waiting for her. James is cute, friendly, and obviously too good to be true. Her skepticism proves justified after he confides in her his secret: after he dies, he is reincarnated as himself to live his life again and again and again... Retaining all knowledge and skill acquired in his previous lives and with a general understanding of future events, James is effectively superhuman. And while Martha enjoys the inherent perks of associating with such a boy, she comes to learn of the despair and exhaustion underneath it all. With no permanent consequence or hope of release, James struggles to stave off nihilism with Martha his one tether to humanity. FOR THOSE WHO DON'T BELIEVE IN LOVE SONGS is, in fact, a love story, albeit a complicated one. Can Martha reconcile with the fact that James has loved hundreds of other Marthas before her and will most likely love hundreds thereafter? Is James' choice to engage and confide in Martha irresponsible and selfish? Would she be better off living her life unaware of the cosmic freak who has loved her for millennia?

The Remains of Hope by AKlinguisticsaddict
5 parts Complete Mature
*Spin-off novel from the Rising Phoenix Trilogy* Four years after a war she didn't really participate in should've been enough time for Amanda Beauchou to recuperate. It was supposed to have been a slice of adventure - to be a human at the backlines of a war of Drakhenae, non-humans who used to be a myth to her. It wasn't supposed to involve her twin's death, and it wasn't supposed to involve a Drakhenae who whispered promises. But it did, and in the aftermath of her twin's death, her guilt, and the seemingly never-ending wrongdoings, Amanda wants nothing to do with Ivan Romano, the Drakhenae who can't give up. Though, does she really want him to? Ivan Romano thought he knew everything about war, about the high stakes, consequences, and the aftermath. Never, in all his years of underground work and rebelling, did he think it could involve a certain Amanda Beauchou, someone who would haunt his thoughts much longer than the war ever could. But when information gets out of a serum, he knows the war isn't really over, and when Amanda's life becomes in possible danger, the two are thrown back together. Maybe their remains of hope aren't really remains anymore. - This book is rated mature due to some depressing themes and sexually mature scenes (though the latter is marked) - [Word count: 80,000 - 90,000] TSC22 Participant Update 12/16/23: Everything save for the first five chapters will be unpublished as this series will be undergoing a major re-write in the coming months.

Primed: A Kayla Madison Story by MelissaHamilton2
37 parts Complete
Kayla Madison is a normal-ish sixteen-year old whose main desire is simple-make it through high school without embarrassing herself too much in the process. It doesn't help that she's being followed by dark figures no one else sees. When a man with incredible speed, unbelievable power, strange old-fashion clothes, and an obnoxious personality threatens her life, she discovers she is a rare "two-worlder" -a person with one parent from Earth and the other from Earth Prime. She escapes another attack by jumping through a portal to the alternate dimension, much to the chagrin of her protector. As if managing without electricity, cars, and phones on the more Edwardian world weren't enough stress; she finally meets her long-absent father, a scientist in the top-secret field of Trans-Dimensional Travel. Things get more complicated when she realizes her best friend's father, or rather the Earth Prime version of him, might have been the person that orchestrated the assaults. ___ Thanks for reading! I've been working on this story for quite a while and have drafts for a five book series. I would love feedback on what I can do to make it a stronger story. If there are things you enjoy, let me know (so I don't change those parts.) :) All portions of the story have been submitted and final chapters will visible by Nov 18, 2023. Among other degrees, I have my MFA in creative writing. I am a science teacher when I am not writing.
