A starship captain searching for solitude and riches in the stars finds himself hopelessly lost. His journey home will force him to rely on an increasing number of colorful misfit crew who save his life as much as give it misery.

Stars Are Shortcake is a lighthearted and humorous serial sci-fi adventure. Initially intended as a four-panel comic, the author has repurposed it as a daily writing exercise because he doesn't have the time or money for artwork! Ha!


Note from the Author:
"I need something in my writing career that can be completed in an hour or less. This is because writing books takes such an immense amount of time, effort and willpower. So, the chapters in this story will be very short, perhaps even incomplete at times. But, I hope you'll enjoy the journey with me and the colorful characters.All Rights Reserved

Inevitable Ascension by vkmcallister

***Completed*** If you knew your world would soon be torched to carbon, would you fight to save it? ...Or light a match of your own? Violina, a girl polarized by love and loathing, finds herself thrown into a post-apocalyptic world with mankind on the brink of extinction. Discovering the means to travel back in time, she teams up with the ever-optimistic, pun-loving Lux and sets out to prevent the apocalypse from ever happening in the first place. But as her crusade advances, she becomes increasingly disturbed by humanity's apparent *lack* of humanity and comes to a frightening realization: To build a new world, she must first tear the old one down. Inevitable Ascension-The twisted jigsaw puzzle of a story with equal parts rapid-fire action, humor and charm. It's got a host of twists that will literally make your brain explode! Actually not literally, you know, because otherwise that would be really gross. Who is V.K. McAllister? We're a husband/wife duo (Andrew and Sasha McAllister) with a unique approach to writing. We work simultaneously and in secret before combining what we come up with, resulting in dramatic and unexpected twists that surprise even us! Crazy? Yes, yes it is, but it's surprisingly fun and effective. :) We pretty much live for the Inevitable Ascension series and did just about everything ourselves-the writing, the editing, the publishing, the art (well, Andrew did the art, but Sasha provided invaluable consulting when it came to eyebrows), the audio book, the trailer-everything. We're basically a one-man band, except with two people... and no music... so perhaps not the best metaphor, but we're confident you get what we mean.

Dip$hits in Space, season 1 by AdrianOzryth

An eccentric comedy about space, and the Dipsh**s that end up in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top icecream truck in space, in a universe where that's shockingly common. His trusty crew of valiant randos, Marley the tech-bro stoner spacebunny, Duffy the plump and sassy female mechanic, Roy the frigging fabulous Android, and also that other chick is there. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. with a crew of 3-5 and an IQ of also probably 3-5, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately offensive and overwhelmingly childish scenarios as the crew battle impossible odds, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Romance, Politics, Originality, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh**s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)

Waiting Shapeless by KennyFyor

*Completed* Ranked #1 in alienplanet in Jan 20 2020 Please, LISTEN TO ME!! I know you think I'm crazy and I know they told you I'm dangerous, but you have to just listen!! My people are dying! They are being killed, ruthlessly slaughtered by the millions!! I know exactly who is doing it too-but it doesn't make any sense. I don't understand why they are doing it. Please help me, help us!! To whoever gets this message, I can't do anything from here-please! I am begging you!! Please-just get me off this damn planet!! [END TRANSMISSION] ------------------- Earth is not alone in harboring life. The galaxies and universes have been opened, and all the intelligent beings residing in them have been connected and unified with each other. It has been over a million years since the Pentaverse, a cluster of five neighboring universes, was organized and unified. Now, hundreds of otherworldly species live in relative harmony with the one another. The unification was good for many species, but for some species, the change caused unexpected extinction. As a team of the Conservation of Species Committee investigates a mysterious decrease in the population of a robotic species, they stumble upon something that could potentially result in the destruction of the entire Pentaverse. This is not your average Wattpad story about how the 'bad boy meets the good girl'. This book is about a series of mysteries that begin to unfold as you read and travel through space with a group of unsuspecting aliens. This story will make you laugh, it will shock you, surprise you, and it will leave you hungry for more-all the way to the last word. Be aware, there are some adult themes in this book including drinking, swearing, love making, death, and murder. None of those topics are explored too deeply however, so I do not think it is appropriate to give this book a 'mature' rating. *********** @2020wattyawards

Max and the Universe - Book I by TheSpaceRings

THIS IS A DRAFT. I EDIT IT. ITS ONLY MARKED COMPLETE CAUSE NO NEW CHAPTERS. What if there's a universe where this book is real? According to the multiverse theory-yeah, probably. And in that universe, 14-year-old Max Carsley is trying to survive being a teenager and a prince, all while living in a star-spanning civilization full of alien species, political chaos, and secrets that could shake the galaxy. Flying cars? Check. Wormhole portals? Check. Friends who actually make life make sense? Double check. Max's world is beautiful, messy, and more complicated than he ever signed up for-and the deeper he digs, the more he learns that ruling a planet is the least of his problems. This isn't your average Sci-Fi/Fantasy story. It's a cosmic mix of teen drama, space politics, and pure heart. And yeah, there's swearing. Yeah, it's a draft. But every chapter matters-so don't skip any.

Why Is There An Alien Princess In My Room? (ONC 2023 - Alien Romance - Complete) by lisa_london_

Tristan is a Quiz Bowl star. Vyrsa is from the stars. But is their interstellar romance written in the stars? *** Following a successful heist on a rival planet, Princess Vyrsa just needs to step through the Portal of Wishes to be brought straight back to her home planet Isola. But when Vyrsa steps through the portal, she finds herself on Earth, a primitive planet in a forgotten corner of the universe, with no means to return home. After having spent the night studying for an upcoming Astronomy test, galaxies, planets, and asteroids are on Tristan Conway's mind as he drifts into dreams. So he's unfazed when a strange glittering woman suddenly appears in his dorm room, convinced she's nothing but a figment of his imagination. When he finds her in his kitchen the next morning, eating his textbooks and befriending his cat, he's not so sure anymore. With no fancy alien tech at her disposal, Vyrsa will need Tristan's help to return to her faraway home planet. Ecstatic to be part of a plot reminiscent of the space movies he loves, Tristan throws himself wholeheartedly into the mission. After studies of possible fuel sources turn into Netflix binging beside her endearing host, Vyrsa's resolve to leave weakens. Maybe she'll just stay with Tristan a little bit longer... Surely nothing bad could come from it? Unless the owners of the artifact she stole figure out where she went and decides to obliterate the whole planet where she's hiding just to punish her, of course. *** This is an ONC Novella using prompt #18: You step through a magical portal thinking it's the way back home, but what you find isn't what you expected. This story is completed.

Hold onto your derp-hats and prepare for war! The Dipshits are back, and I'm running out of promos! The ultimate season in spoofage and epic ripping-off begins, as the now unstoppable Dips battle pirates, wizards, literal bricks, and possible pregnancy.

No trope is safe, as we delve into cringe-worthy, binge-worthy insanity to find out who...is...the sluttiest...Dipshit...IN SPAAAACE. man, these are getting worse with every description. I'm so hungry. Could really go for a 3Am taco right now. awe, crap i left the mic on.

First to Rise (Excerpt) by Bioshockgrl

The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)

Dip$h!+s in space: Season 2 by AdrianOzryth

The Crew of the SS Tast-E-Chill are back, probably because they never left to begin with. The same level of random stupidity has continued beyond and into darkness, in this moderately anticipated squeal of the ongoing series that thinks it's a TV show, that has been crammed into book form. Joint the Captain and most of his crew, including a brand new pair of strange characters, one of which is actually plot-important. Everything you surely liked about the first season only, um, sequal-y-er, because clearly you are clicking the second installation, and therefore have low standards on jokes. Hop aboard and look for a seat-belt as you dive head-first into another layer of the same dips, doing different $h!+s, and still in space. This sucker has everything, a shiny new ship, new enemies, new worlds to explore and a brand new compact format of fewer episodes than you may expect, shortened for convenience and definitely not because my clumsy @$$ deleted like 5 episodes well after starting season 3. That didn't happen at all. Season 3 has a frigging buttload of episodes, so it evens out. Just...bear with me people. you should expect this by now, you read the first season, you know how half-@$$ed this is. There is nothing professional here. if you didnt read season 1, then what the crap are you doing here starting on season 2? That's just dumb. That's on you and i claim no responsibility for the results. Ugh, that's enough intro. I'mma get a coffee. Nobody reads these things anyway, i can say whatever i want. Bla Bla, filer filler, cinnamon-toast. See? You didnt read it.

In the Rouge by SJForester

In a world... Where star-crossed lovers guarantee sales and novels lack all novelty... Comes a story so generic that it will appeal to everyone of every generation forever... The story of a ruggedly handsome man of indeterminate age, named Guy who meets an exquisitely beautiful recently-come-of-age woman, named Eve. It's love at first sight, but one of them has a secret... A secret so big that it will tear them apart forever... Or will it? The world may never know, because this is not that book. This book is clever and will appeal to a specific audience. People who like witty humor and realistic characters. People who like a large dose of laughter in their sci-fi. Wherein: Liam Gatley is—was a normal, just-trying-to-get-by-with-as-little-effort-as-possible university student. But he’s just woken up from a birthday bender in a recruiting office, and before he can even figure out what’s happened, he’s rushed aboard the (in)famous ISS Titan to hunt down interstellar pirates as a proud—and completely expendable—member of the Imperial Space Corps. Suddenly it’s hard to imagine life being any worse . . . It turns out Liam just needs a better imagination. On his first day, Liam is shot, stabbed, crushed, electrocuted, asphyxiated, and drowned. It gets even worse when the Titan runs afoul of a telepathic mutant who turns the ship’s own crew against her. Now Liam’s talent at not-quite-dying might save the day, but he’ll still have to lose his mind to survive. And if he can manage that, he’ll have to battle an overzealous military commander whose ambition threatens the entire Interstellar Human Empire. If he ever hopes to make it home again, Liam will have to risk everything to save the empire. On the bright side, he may just get the girl in the process.
