Asa is an unwilling sensitive with a fear of mirrors and anything reflective.
     Amy is an unwitting empath. 
     Together they are responsible for murder.

THE SHIPPY SIBLINGS are rarely alone, despite living as secluded orphans on the remains of their family's generational farm. Tucked between the scrub-spattered brown hills of Salinas Valley, the decayed farmhouse is home to more than just the Shippy's family secrets. Ghosts vie for a foothold in this world, focusing most of their attention on poor Asa, whose lifelong Shadowman attachment has made it impossible for him to live normally.
    Amy, on the other hand, doesn't seem as heartily affected. Her constant struggle to erase the memory of their abusive, dead mother preoccupies most of her personality. But when a serial killer appears to be targeting them specifically, the siblings are forced to confront a haunting so personal, so vengeful, that it can only be family.

Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist, de OnceUponASonder
12 capítulos Concluída
While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.

Formerly Known As 'The Ghost In My Attic' {Contains Mature Content} The cold Brooke Hills breeze takes over the night. Blowing mercilessly as it cools off some of the pain on my face... I watch the trees dance in the wind and the moon plays hide and seek with people like me who are still looking at it. Hiding behind the tree branches and leaves. I always feel serene and at peace when looking at the moon but tonight..... Looking at it just purely outlines the difference between who I used to be and what I currently am. Like soothing kisses, the rain droplets rest on my skin. Not long; the rain begins to pour. The pregnant clouds decided the time to deliver their bottled-up tears was when my heart had no strength left to cry anymore... I feel the rain flow over my body and I wish it could flow through me... Flow-through me and wash off the dirt and memories of this horrid night. My legs hardly leave the floor as I walk ghostly towards home. What used to be my safe heaven..... ¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢°¢° After years of being insulted and hurt by the whole town, the final line is crossed when the mayor's son takes away the one thing she valued most. (Her virginity). Soon after she meets a ghost, the mayor's son is found dead and a lot of dirty secrets begin to surface. Is Laina the culprit or is she just a victim of circumstance?. Well, you can only find out by clicking READ... 💖✌. Highest Rating; #1 Assault😘 My name is Aider Kwin on any social media platform. If u see my book on another app by a different name, pls let me know😩😩🙌🙏 Writing ain't easy so stealing ain't nice💯💯

The Broker

She stood and watched as her parents were murdered in front of her. As her childhood home was burnt to a crisp. Twelve years later, she's looking for revenge. When Amaraya contacts the most powerful man in Virginia, she will set off the trigger that has been inlaid into her life. She will start to become something she does not recognize. But to find the man that killed her parents, Amaraya is ready to do anything. Work with a ruthless serial killer? Check. Perhaps, recruit an arsonist with high moral standards and an awfully strong British accent? Check. Maybe go breaking hundreds of laws with an FBI mole? Check. Trust a man that can wipe her off the face of the Earth with the snap of a finger? Let her think for a second. Oh yes. Check. Now let's review the options. Amaraya wants revenge. The Broker is ready to give it to her. When she walks into the darkness, she won't come back. And Amaraya knows it. She's got nothing left to lose. Not one bloody thing. It's time to find the man that murdered her parents. About damn time, already. - 3rd Place in Action/Adventure at the Crazy Awards #1 in the Fatality Prevention Series
