A weight beyond measure, beyond bearing. In the wake of a tragedy beyond her wildest dreams, Lulu must face the weight of a world without heroes, without those capable of creating the impossible. On scattered paths, all those left behind must find their way forward in this new, broken world that remains caught in the midst of an ancient feud of gods and monsters of extraordinary power.

Weight of the World follows the stories of Lulu, Rhenna, Hadrius, and Rost as they struggle to pick up the pieces after the events of Within These Tangled Tales. Each has their own path to take, their own struggles to overcome, and their own burdens to bear. From the Holy City of Tregaar, a modern city built by the Creator Himself to the wilds of Andavaran, the saga continues in the expanse of Ishara.

16 parts Complete Mature
This is book four of a novella series, mostly consisting of shorter stories of 50k-100k word count. Agoraphobic Gwen Murray was scarred in a freak accident in her youth that left her with burns on around twelve percent of her body and many years of ridiculing bullying from not only children, but adults alike. With a history as such, it's no surprise that she isn't very well adjusted to going outdoors. However, as fearful as she is to face the relentless torment once again, she hates feeling as if her life is on permanent standby. All she's ever desired is true happiness -- don't we all -- and with words of encouragement from not only her therapist, but her little brother as well, she is ready to take another step forward. Although, what she hadn't expected was the person who out of nowhere joined her stark journey. Bookstore and cafe owner Michal "Brook" Bluestone was raised mostly in Israel, though her parents desired a full life for her and moved them to join a bulk of their family in the US upon her coming out. Years later, she has two thriving businesses, a giant family only an hours drive away and a network of friends. There's only one thing missing from her life -- love -- and now more than ever, she is ready to find what she deems her "forever girl" with how well life is going. Still, after using dating apps and all encounters failing, she fears love may not be in the cards for her until a skittish woman walks into her cafe, forever changing her world. ⚠️Trigger Warning: This novel contains elements of agoraphobia and pervasive psychological trauma. ❤ Mature/Erotic Content ⚢ Lesbian Romance/Lit 📚 1st Draft Complete as of 07/03/2024. As of 06/25/2024 I am working on making this series into a possible webcomic as well, so for those of you who like GL, keep your eyes peeled for updates on my Instagram. Adaptation will have multiple stories with minor changes running congruent.

The Compass of Nine, the relic for which Lulu made a deal with the ancient witch, Virmira Tanadall, is finally calibrated. It is time for Lulu to open the Garden of Starlight and find her long lost father. Which, naturally, means it is time for things to go horribly wrong. But when Lulu returns home, she finds it besieged by soldiers sent by Queen Eivør, another contender to the throne of Valdornne. She has sent a dark gift to the family home: the bloodied brooch given to Ori the day she left home. Lulu and Idelle must set their own quest aside to aid their Uncle Baloren, who leaves for the tattered homeland of the very empire he once destroyed. Their search for Ori will lead them deep into the Shadowlands, home to the Umbra, the King of Bones' loyal legion of monsters, where they will find themselves in the middle of a war for a mysterious place known only as the Sanctuary. In a war of her own, Ori has spent the last four years helping to fight for the throne of Namera. Her conflict is nearly finished when word reaches her of an old evil about to wake in the Howling Abyss. The Colossus, an ancient adversary who emerges once every thirteen years, is waking and will bring untold devastation to Velara if he isn't stopped. Their only reprieve comes in the form of a woman inside the Abyss, whose powerful voice has momentarily lulled the Colossus into slumber. Her brother comes to petition her aid and will lead Ori and others deep into the heart of the Abyss, where Ori will learn more of the worlds that came before and the powerful savior of The Broken Song. Ori's power will be pushed to its limits as she fights alongside old friends and learns to trust new faces such as the mysterious healer named Zenn'a, whose past may just consume them all, and the Creator Himself, who wishes to prove, once and for all, that He can be trusted. Return to the worlds of Ishara and beyond in Book Three of The Broken Song series, updated weekly on Fridays at 5:00 pm PST.

Elusia Vale is the most fabulous adventurer, swordswoman, thief, and lover to ever grace Ishara, and she is always the first to say so. Her life has been filled with excitement and reckless abandon, but how long can she outrun the tempests she leaves in her wake? Just a girl when her father was sealed away in an untouchable realm, Lulu has devoted her life to finding a way to bring him back. Her obsession has taken her across the stars, journeying to every known world of Ishara with her best friend, Idelle, at her side. Never ones to pass up the opportunity for trouble, they have made a life out of journeying across the realms, using their skills to help those in need or, in Lulu's case, using stories of their adventures to woo beautiful women. Her quest has seen countless failures, but a new lead, an ancient relic known as the Compass of Nine, promises to reignite her hope. Yet, it is at that very moment when she is drawn into a conflict by her hated cousin, Orianna, a woman called Savior by The Path of Light. The upstart religion has gained a strong foothold within the world of Andavaran, an endlessly painful thorn in Lulu's side. When Orianna asks for her help to stop a sorceress of unfathomable power, Lulu must set aside her hatred to aid both her cousin and a city on the verge of religious civil war, all the while working with The Path, the very people she blames for her father's fate. Together with Idelle, Orianna, and a host of friends, Lulu must face her past and learn, sometimes, the Path you walk isn't always the one you choose. Enter the worlds of Ishara in Book One of The Broken Song Series. Updates will be every Friday at 6:00 pm EST. Thank you for reading, and your feedback is greatly appreciated. Enjoy!!!

18 parts Ongoing Mature

Humans are born with different skin tones, genders, races, religions, cultures, and even ideas. Some think what he or she is doing is perfectly fine, while others do not. Some people live by black-and-white rules, seeing things through the lens of laws and borders. The others see the world in rainbow colors, and no rules can constrain them. The rest are in the grey zone and have no regard for the rules of the world. And the last type is the worst of all. ---- She was born from the world's oldest line of descent; her great great great grandfather was an Ardelean. She wasn't a direct descendant, but her power was so great that she was brought to her ancestor's land to be the heir and continue the family business. She epitomizes the archetypal Ardelean; darkly alluring, striking in appearance but capable of devastating violence. In her eyes, there is no such thing as right or wrong, no black and white. That is until a bright and cheerful lady enters her life and changes her color. Will her new lady girlfriend accept the deepest darkest desire of the Ardelean's line? Will she flee?
