american crime crossover deep drama epic genres intense mystery profound psychological science scifi thriller

A crossover between characters from across all of my current books (Lucid, The Dicer, Meet the Richards, Lostar, Ripples). Following six characters - Anton, Dirk, Conall, Ben, Valery and Xyler - from each of their perspectives, exploring their side of the story in this part makeshift extravaganza of the mixture of genres neatly tied in a bow of suffering, trauma, betrayal, sacrifice, forgiveness, redemption, revenge, right, wrong, the gray areas of doubt. American values cherish and flourish in this compartmentalization of human studies and what makes the American dream unachievable, as the characters travel across America to find each other and converge in a hellfire and brimstone fueled climax.All Rights Reserved

Scorpio by Turtles5188

A desert-town math whiz meets an ambidextrous artist, a Scorpio... in the wake of a best friend's death, two white envelopes that freak people out, and a diamond pearl that might be LSD. In the outskirts of Las Vegas, freshman Aurora (a.k.a. Ari) takes refuge in calculus and probability problems to escape the demons of her painful past. Math was what the prestigious prep school Staglight Academy had recruited her for-her, a girl from the wrong side of the train tracks. Plus, numbers are logical; math makes sense. This predictable world built on immutable mathematical theorems doesn't plague you with chronic insomnia, doesn't let Katrina-your best friend-die, and definitely doesn't hurl a tornado through the middle of the Mohave. But a desert cyclone is exactly how their twin escapes begin-Ari, running from the horrors that have chased her throughout time, and Xanexa, running from the horrors that have chased xyr across the universe. They run until they meet, when Ari comes face-to-face with xyr, an amazing artist whose sketches are so real they could come to life. From that initial encounter, she begins to discover the dangerous, life-threatening truths that had been buried with Katrina. Under an increasingly constricting web of manipulation and deceit that imperil Ari and those around her, those truths resurface with the ones about herself that had been buried beneath the sands of time-truths that are wholly irrational, just like art-- --and pi, a number xe shows her the end to, even though it is real, irrational, natural, and never-ending.

Barry's life by irisekkeri

Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued

Some folks set the world on fire, others burn, many don't care what they do as long as something more powerful tells them what's right or wrong.
