Stoneweaver
The world flooded, and only small peaks now rise above the water, with civilization confined to waterborne cities with limited resources. The cities are ruled by tyrannous bosses, enforcing their will with an army of thugs and Stoneweavers, those able to use the remnants of magic from the old times. Resources are maintained by regular Cleansing of the populace, selling the poorest into slavery as miners. With a Cleansing due, what danger are an escaped slave and a thief to this delicate society? As an experiment, I'm publishing the first draft chapters from this heroic fantasy on a daily basis, while still writing it. I'm about halfway through but at the current rate should be able to keep up the pace until it's finished (admittedly, many of the chapters are fairly short). It's also an exercise in discovery writing, as I'm working from a very loose outline on this one, but I have a fairly good idea of the ending by this point. The chapters may get updated to fix typos, or if elements need changing due to future chapters, but otherwise the final version should be made available as an ebook.Complete
Love and Money
A young woman, struggling to make ends meet, meets a wealthy businessman who promises her a life of luxury and comfort. Intrigued by the prospect, she enters a relationship with him, initially dazzled by the glamour and wealth. As they grow closer, she begins to question her feelings-wondering if she's truly in love or if she's merely infatuated with the financial security he's offering. The man, too, wrestles with his own feelings. His success has often isolated him, and he wonders if the woman truly loves him for who he is, or just the life he can provide. Despite their growing emotional connection, their differences in background and values begin to create tension. When an unexpected turn of events forces them to confront what matters most-whether it's love or money-their relationship is put to the ultimate test. In the end, they must decide if love is enough to overcome the allure of wealth, or if the power of money will always overshadow their emotions.

Please spare me, Villain!
Imagine, just for a second, let's imagine you end up somehow travelling into your favourite book. Then you started working your magic and you cosy up to the male lead who was supposed to get you killed or you make the demon lord fall in love with you so he can protect you from your imminent death. And woah you got your happy ending. But now let's imagine a completely different scenario where you end up in a book you read like 10 pages of (including the ending). And you find yourself literally dropped into the lap of a psychopathic rival who enjoys just a teeny bit of bloodshed. He's also the guy who killed your favourite character and not to mention you. But then you hold on for a second because you realise you're not dead and he wants to use you as an immortal tool to sharpen his aim. Well that's the story I ended up living in. And I've got one request from Mr. Villain over there, please spare me!Complete
