Gregory's mother refuses to acknowledge Gregory's transsexual existence. Gregory doesn't know why. Gregory does know it's  pissing her off - but what can she do?  She depends on her mother for home. Yet Cecil suggests she should take a journey to the Eastlands when she reaches 16.

 "It's a real eye opener"

Like fuck Gregory's waiting to she's 16, at just 11 Gregory runs from home, to get to the Eastlands that's only known for its million years history, of war, and being the only inhabited area before our almighty gods The Twelve came to earth. Can little Gregory get to the Eastlands, and if so, what could she possibly discover there that could iron out the creases in her relationship with Mother?

The Bastard Queen (Viciously Yours #2) by Verbage
70 parts Complete Mature
Macha just wanted her mother dead. Was that really too much to ask? Tossed out on her ass into the Outerlands as a little girl for being a bastard. Yea that came with some trauma and long lasting issues but she worked through all that. Really. Sure, she may like blood and war a little more that was normal but come on! She's an Unseelie Fae, she was practically born this way. After a long exciting journey she organized *cough* conquered *cough* the Outerlands into a functioning society. Into the Kingdom of the Banished Fae with her ruling as their rightful Queen and everything was great for a time. Truly. Until her birthmother decided that she didn't deserve to be Queen of anything which ended with them battling it out and Macha getting tossed into a maximum security prison. Bummer. Now having escaped prison, Macha is dealing with the fact that very old feelings for a certain asshat are springing back up like a bad joke and that she must rebuild her entire kingdom. But she has to do it right this time and that means telling her people who she really is if she wants them to follow her into a war against her mother. A woman who refuses to let Macha be and plans to wipe her entire existence from fae history. Again, Macha really really just wanted this bitch dead but it was turning out to be a lot harder than she thought. *Cover is made by me but I have no rights to the picture itself.

(INCOMPLETE) Of Ink And Flowers - A LGBTQIA+ Love Story by Lily_EditsX

Lufi Muhamad, an insomniac college dropout with mild anxiety, opens up a Tattoo Parlor right across the street from a small Flower Shop. The day after opening, he finds a bouquet on the doorstep of his parlor. He looks across the street and sees a blue-eyed boy with dirty blonde hair opening the flower shop, and something within him stirs. Deimos Alexander, a hyper ADHD 20-year-old, was shocked when he realized that a new business had opened up across the street. He looked in the window and saw (In his best friend's words) an "Emo in the wild" tattooing someone. He makes a bouquet for him and places it on his porch step. He almost dropped his coffee the following day when he saw an oil pastel drawing on his welcome mat from the tattoo artist. Trigger Warning: While this book is a majority fluff there are a few angsty bits that face some grim topics including child abuse, dangerous parents, alcohol abuse, homophobia, transphobia, and harassment. This story includes quite a bit of swearing as well (blame my trucker dad for that) so viewer discretion is advised. No Smut whatsoever in this book. (I love y'all but I'm not putting my ace ass through that torture) If you have an idea for a cute date between characters, a friend group excursion, etc. please comment. I will either try to incorporate it in the story itself or make a oneshot book. NOTE: There is no specific schedule. While I will try and update once a week I am still in school and I'm both a part of the theater program and dance team so updates might be inconsistant.
Waking up to a new reality by xp64rs

Eric was the younger of twelve year old twins, just approaching their thirteenth birthday. Although only six minutes younger than Lauren, she was clearly the alpha character when it came to sibling rivalry; she had an effervescent outgoing personality and exuded confidence in everything that she did. Eric, on the other hand, was introverted and largely lived his life in under the shadow of his sister. That was until Eric was diagnosed with a life threatening condition. Admitted to hospital for emergency life-changing surgery. Waking up a different person there was a new-found confidence and optimism that results in a metamorphosis into a life that is far from the shadows. Born out of Covid-19 lockdown, this was conceived as a light-hearted short story to counteract the doom and gloom that was resulting from the pandemic. It grew longer than expected, as I got to know Erin. The story might still be a bit rough round the edges, but I wanted to release it in time for summer vacation reading. There is no violence or hatred, just kindness and acceptance. For those that discount this as unrealistic of the real world, I counter two arguments: 1) It is a complete work of fiction. 2) My son went to Lycee (Senior secondary school) in rural France, where attitudes are generally very conservative. Despite this, there was a girl his his year, who believed she should have been a boy. HE was accepted for who he was, without prejudice. Hopefully it offers a little light reading with a happy ending. Not that the story is set in Scotland and the spelling reflects British convention, perhaps with some Scottish dialect thrown in.

Their faces forever burned in his mind. Just as burned as the old country house he used to live in. His parents. The smoke. The Smoke. The Fire. That Damn Fire. The roof of their old farmhouse collapsing, closing off the exit. Their faces, burning, melting in the flames. He would never forget the image of their skin slowly melting off their faces. Horror in their eyes. There was one thing that Keith didn't understand. He never saw his parents when they died. All of it was in his head. His nightmares. <><><><> Keith Kogane, or Kathrine Kogane as his birth certificate says, is a trans-boy orphan who has gone from house to house, being rejected by all his families. He assumes this one is no different, but what he doesn't know is that this family is (What any family should be like) accepting of his choices. (Ok. I get it, I'm not very good at summaries and such but yeah...don't judge it by the summary. It's a lot better than it sounds ok) Warning. This is a mature story. There is a lot of fluff. And strong language. And depression. You have been warned. If you have a problem with gay, transgender, suicidal thoughts then don't read this book. Also, I am a shitty writer, a lot of this is based on other books I've read. There's a shit ton of stuff I got ideas from in my reading lists So go check those out. So yeah...enjoy my shitty writing. I've warned you. Please keep the comments nice, unless it is CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM! Saying 'You suck' is not constructive. Written by: Me duh I had some help with some information on transgender people and some other stuff, @StormOrSkyBreakDown so not all of this is mine :) Also, the editing isn't completely done so when it is I'll be sure to change this message right here ;) Update on that last line, it's been two years and the editing is done. Not sure why I didn't change that but I guess I'll leave it in.
Tasperwood: Book One by BKing2025
1 part Complete Mature
Something or someone has poisoned the Rhyswater river, the font of magic for the human land of Rhysmark and the elvish Forelvenrest. To investigate the source of the taint, deep in the treacherously magic Tasperwood, the Rhysian queen sends two of her best: Griffon Mage Zacharus Ravenwood, and knight Sir Colkeith of Brookland. Zach is a powerful mage and lethal fighter, but touched by wild boggart blood, he loves nothing more than playing pranks-particularly on his brother-in-law apparent, Keith. Keith, at the command of his father, brings along his newly met half-brother Torin, a sweet-tempered, beautiful half-sylph with no interests other than sex and music. Although ordered to "make a man" out of Torin, Keith is not sanguine about his chances. Torin's only interested in his next conquest. Joining the humans are two elves: Oakheart Mage Trysstenirifell, and Foresteye Mage Vesperessillien. Tryss jumps at the chance to take the dangerous journey, grateful to put off an unwelcome marriage. Vesper comes from the most enigmatic and powerful branch of the elf family, the Foresteyes, and unwittingly scares the bugspit out of all he meets. His reasons for going are more complex, and no one would dare to inquire. As the oddly composed band sets off into the Tasperwood, they encounter not only physical dangers of every description, but dangers of the heart as well. Torin is determined to have Tryss, who holds back out of loyalty to the elves, who do not transgress with other races. Besides, he's engaged, however unwillingly. Zach feels drawn to Vesper, but fears Vesper and Tryss are a couple. Previously Zach had felt drawn to the straight Keith, who realizes he'd counted on the attention when Zach turns his attention elsewhere. And that's just the start. Can they get their relationships untangled before the Tasperwood and its creatures make mincemeat of them?
Olympus Drive Book 1: Everything is Fine by kullman
50 parts Complete Mature
Recently freed members of a cult search for their missing members. Everything is not as it seems in Winfell, where six children disappeared under mysterious circumstances, only for four them to be found ten years later telling strange stories of monsters and the Underworld, with no explanation for where they've been. Or what happened to two of them. Suffice to say nothing is fine. *** Reasons to read the Olympus Drive Series 1. LGBTQ rep throughout 2. Happy endgame gays/lesbians and polyamory as well asexuality and grey aces 3. Lots of references to Greek/Roman Mythology 4. Trans, genderfluid, and non-binary characters with arcs that don't revolve around their sexuality 5. Plenty of happy/positive relationships 6. But your favorite ship WILL be a 10,000 year old space alien and an undead detective 7. All dark/heavy topics are addressed or resolved in a positive manner 8. Postive female friendships and romantic relationships, without cheating 9. Essentially any relationship structure or sexuality you can think of comes up at one point or another 10. The queen of the dead gets a sword forged from blood Trigger Warning: Some violence and creature violence. Mild peril. Fantasy violence throughout. Extensive injuries shown. Brief fantasy violence (a character is shot point blank but we know the character cannot be injured, that type of thing). Peril to child characters throughout, though it is fantasy peril. Content Warning: Profanity throughout. Sex/sexuality discussed at length, at an R rated level though little is shown. Oh and...in case the tags didn't give it away there's heavy references to Greek mythology, therefore only like one character is actually straight.

The End & The Beginning

24 parts Complete Mature

Oops! I accidentally summoned a demon! When a crazy man threatens her family if she doesn't kill the man holding them all hostage, Eve comes up with her own plan to keep her family safe. What she doesn't expect is that her sacrifice is only the beginning. Note: This began as a #WITWContest challenge, but became a mild obsession as I fell in love with it. It's still a one-shot but is now a not-so-short short-story with all the answers to the questions you had when reading that first chapter. How did she get there? Where did he take her? And so much more! TW: violence, mentions of trafficking, food/housings insecurity, and domestic neglect All of my stories feature LGBTQ+ characters: in this novel the MC and demons are all pansexual, all demons/angels are intersex (closest definition possible since they're not human), and much of the supporting cast is also LGBTQ+. Releases for this story are WEEKLY on Tuesdays until the story is finished publishing (will be done at end of January 2026) Contests/competitions this story is participating in: * The Turquoise Quill Awards 2025 * Shut Up and Write Awards 2025 * The Freedom Awards 2025 * Auld Lang Syne Awards (Chapter 1 Only)
