An odd fantasy satire inspired by real DnD characters. This book is a concept draft, a few chapters exploring the idea of Grung as a character and the world he might inhabit. I dropped this idea eventually to move on to an alternate book project, but you're welcome to see the story-that-was, and meet my favourite little red frog wizard.

* * *

The Southerlands should have been flourishing, prosperous, but that was then. Now its very existence hangs by a thread, its people starving and the Emperor threatening to withdraw his armies and leave it to its fate.

...turns out it's expensive to run a far-off province that's beset on all sides by hardship. Who'd have thunk it?

Lucilla, teenage daughter of the provincial Dominus, may now be the only thing that could save her home - but she won't be alone. Joining her on an epic quest are Jendar, the mysterious titanic knight, and Grung - the, err, frog wizard. He shouldn't be here, but nobody knew what else to do with him. All he wanted was to buy some new spells. Now he's on a quest. Not that he seems to realise.

Can Lucilla, Jendar, and Grung pass the Three Trials, find the ancient Godswell, and save the Southerlands? And, more importantly, will Grung ever find the spells he's looking for?

* * *

"Grung: A Frog Wizard" is an epic fantasy adventure steeped in folklore, and ruined by a little red frog who has no idea what's going on. But he's happy to be there.

Codex Gigas - Realm of Serpent God by Luciasher
19 parts Ongoing
In the aftermath of the collision, where the Light Dimension and Dark Dimension violently merged, Arcanoa was born-a realm where fantasy came alive, and nightmares roamed the earth. This cataclysmic event has unleashed monstrous beings from the Hollow Zone, Veilos, upon an unsuspecting world. To balance this surge of darkness, a select few were gifted with the power of Aura-a rare mystical force that grants its bearers the strength to be humanity's guardian. Sixteen-year-old Lucius Gregory has long severed his ties with the unjust world, choosing a life of isolation deep within the whispering forests, seeking solace with his beloved sister, Evangeline. Haunted by a past marred by tragedy, Lucius has forsaken the burdens of destiny and yearn only for peaceful life. But peace is but a fleeting dream. One fateful night, their sanctuary is shattered by the ruthless Chaos Syndicate-a malevolent organization bent on uncovering the domain of the Serpent God with Lucius' power, as foretold by a dark prophecy. Forced to flee, Lucius narrowly escapes the clutches of death, but at the heart-wrenching cost of Evangeline's life. He later discover that the Chaos Syndicate orchestrated the calamity that decimated his village two years prior. They seek the Codex Gigas, a legendary tome said to hold the Answers to All Mysteries within Arcanoa. The first key to unlocking its secrets lies within the cursed power of the Serpent God-power that Lucius inadvertently related to. Driven by vengeance and duty, Lucius sets forth on a perilous quest. Accompanied by his ethereal spirit companion, Lily, and the Exorcists of the Golden Arslan-a revered organization dedicated to restoring humanity's hope, Lucius embarks on a journey across treacherous seas to the Realm of the Serpent God, nestled within the heart of the dreaded Sea of Devils. Will he rise as the beacon of hope his sister believed in, or will he unleash the very darkness he strives to destroy?

28 parts Complete Mature
What do you get when lack of sleep turns you into a raving lunatic? The most embarrassing moment of your life. Lyrical Lyrical Rodgers lives a simple life. She manages a pet store, has a fantastic family, a great best friend (you only need one), and lives in the apartment of her dreams. Well, the dreams she can afford. The only dark spot in her rather happy life is her new neighbor. He's a jackass, parties all night, and has no regard for anyone other than himself. He's also sleeping with the building manager, so he's no help. Nixon Nixon St. James is successful, wealthy, good-looking, and comes from a great family. On paper, he's a fantastic catch. In person, he could benefit from a semester-or two-at charm school. A prominent architect and real estate developer, Nixon has it all...uh, his temper notwithstanding. Apart from his penchant for going off the rails every now and again, Nixon really has no complaints. When jumping to the wrong conclusion does its thing... After Lyrical unleashes weeks of sleep-deprived anger on her new neighbor, she heads over to her best friend's apartment (one floor above hers) and tells her all about it. However, as she goes into further detail, it starts to become clear that she may have cussed out the wrong person. After Nixon gets the verbal lashing of his life, he's not sure which issue to address first. How does he convince the angry spitfire that he's not gay, not straight pretending to be gay, or not gay and having an affair with his brother? I mean, he's been accused of a lot of things in life, but this? This is crazy. Good times. NOTE: This book contains adult language, adult situations, explicit sexual encounters, and an imaginary trip to Minneapolis. If sensitive to any of the aforementioned issues, please do not purchase.

Ever hear of those old choose-your-own-adventure books? Well, here's one for you Crue style. If you're not familiar with my writing and other books on Wattpad, this may not be your thing. Fair warning, I write Crue x Crue. This book banks off my first 3 books. While they're not necessary to read, you'll get a better idea of the characters, backdrop, and their history if you read them. The band just completed rehab, all are clean and sober. Nikki, in particular is excited to start work on their next album. The problem is, their new record producer has his studio in Vancouver, BC. Nikki insists that the band needs to relocate there in order to make the best album ever. And it also means leaving their women at home. Mick and Vince aren't happy about this. They just got out if rehab, and now have to leave their women behind? Tommy, well he's another story. While he hates to have to leave his wife, he pretty much OK with it because of his secretive relationship with bandmate, Nikki. You choose where to take their adventures. *If you're reading this, as of this time, only one half of the book has been completed. This book has to be uploaded all in one shot in order for it to work. However, this has been a much bigger project than I ever anticipated. I realized that I can get away with a half upload, while I work on the rest. As of now, when you get to your first place in the book where you choose, you can only choose the side I finished. But all you choices there on out are complete and wull bring you through the adventure.
The Dark Heir (SHORTLIST - Open Novella Contest 2019) by HM_Braverman
22 parts Complete
**Featured on DARK FANTASY and ADULT FICTION reading lists** WARNING: EATING OR DRINKING WHILE READING THIS STORY IS HIGHLY INADVISABLE. Once Upon A Time, Good Omens, Monty Python, and Arrested Development had a back-alley three-way and birthed a fairytale. Gerald wasn't supposed to be stuck living seven centuries in the future. He definitely wasn't supposed to be "mentoring" The Dark Lord's progeny in the hopes that she would decide to save the world rather than destroy it. In fact, he wasn't even supposed to be named Gerald (the name of every other male in his family for three hundred years), because everyone assumed a weak-chinned, balding, forgettable man, who was just a magician, could never be who Geraldo The Foreshadower prophesied. But that's what assuming gets you, and here he was saddled with a fate he never asked for, in a time he didn't know, surrounded by people he didn't want to like, and he was out of Firewine AGAIN! The Dark Heir is a darkly satirical tale of assumptions, anti-heroes, and apocalypses, where the road to hell is actually a themed water-park slide covered in slightly less urine than a real one. It drops literary and film references faster than an NYC socialite drops names, and promises endless laughs - including, but not limited to, sad chuckles, guffaws, uncontrollable giggles at inappropriate moments, brays, barks, cackles, snorts, cachinnations, and the occasional howl (though that may be the Welsh Werewolves showing up unannounced). Consider yourself warned... Reviews: "Completely and adorably bonkers," says @floranocturna "Hilarious in every way. Even when I cringed, I laughed," says @LadySapphire2018 Winner of The Trident Awards
