The Terror of Nowhere
There was nothing. A man slowly slips into the insanity of loneliness. Trapped forever in the desolate wasteland. He'd lost his way. Doesn't know where to go. Because, if he went anywhere at all, he would end up, still, in the deserted terrain of dirt. Blank canvas of land forms. He wonders if his group shall turn on him. His wife and conjoined twin daughters. He wonders if killing himself is the solution. But then the darkness of death would just be horrid, won't it?Complete
Behind the Screen
The book follows a protagonist whose mind begins to unravel as they are plagued by eerie occurrences that blur the line between reality and delusion. It begins with subtle shifts-a feeling of being watched, strange reflections, whispers at the edges of perception-but as the story unfolds, these sensations grow more intense and impossible to ignore. The protagonist starts questioning their own sanity, struggling to differentiate between what's real and what's in their head. Is someone-or something-watching them, or are they simply losing their grip on reality? As they spiral deeper into paranoia, the boundaries of their own identity begin to fracture, and they realize they may not be the only one in control of their mind. With each passing day, the tension grows, and the truth becomes harder to discern. The story keeps readers on edge, with unreliable narration and distorted imagery that makes them question everything. As the protagonist's mental state deteriorates, the lines between the observer and the observed blur, and the final revelation leaves the reader wondering if they're trapped in this madness alongside the character. A chilling psychological thriller, this book explores the nature of reality, self-awareness, and the terrifying idea that what you think you know may be nothing more than a reflection of something far darker.Complete

WARNING!!!!! 18+ fantasy taboo When humanity abandons Earth in search of survival, Captain Elias Carter and his 18-year-old daughter, Lucy Carter, find themselves stranded on the alien planet Kaelora after their starship, Eclipse, crash-lands. The planet is as breathtaking as it is unforgiving, with glowing bioluminescent landscapes, extreme weather, and remnants of a long-lost alien civilization.

When they discover that their crash may not have been an accident and that Kaelora holds the key to humanity's survival, Elias and Lucy are thrust into a race against time. Together, they must unravel the mysteries of the planet and face impossible choices that will determine the fate of not only their lives but also the remnants of humanity. Kaelora is more than a story of survival-it's a tale of love, resilience, and hope in the face of overwhelming odds.
Twilight Aegis: Guardians of the Expanse
Just a few short stories about my Team Comp. I had the thought of what would they be like if they actually did have an adventure. There's no shipping. When four heroes from Teyvat-Kokomi, Wriothesley, Rosaria, and Thoma-are mysteriously summoned to a hidden, ancient structure beneath the waves, they uncover the Expanse, a realm of unimaginable beauty and untapped power. Faced with a choice that could reshape their world forever, they must navigate deadly trials, forge bonds of trust, and confront their own beliefs about duty and responsibility. As they step into the unknown, the fate of two worlds hangs in the balance, and their journey as the Guardians of the Expanse begins.
The Shattered Realm
In the heart of Eldoria, a land once brimming with magic and harmony, lies a world fractured by the cataclysmic event known as the Shattering. This shattering not only cleaved the land but also severed the magical leylines that sustained its vibrant ecosystem. Now, in the shadow of this devastation, a young mage named Liora emerges, carrying a mysterious past and unique magical abilities. Guided by an ancient prophecy, she embarks on a perilous quest to restore the leylines, a quest that will lead her to forge an unlikely alliance with Kael, a skilled elven archer, and Drakon, a wise ancient dragon. Their journey will take them across treacherous landscapes, into the depths of forgotten ruins, and into the heart of the conflict between the forces of light and the malevolent sorcerer responsible for the Shattering. This is not a simple tale of good versus evil; it is a story of complex characters grappling with moral dilemmas, navigating treacherous political landscapes, and confronting their own internal demons. Liora, Kael, and Drakon will each face trials that test their loyalty, their courage, and their very sense of self. Their path is paved with sacrifice, betrayal, and unexpected twists that will challenge their alliances and force them to confront the shadows within their own souls. Through their struggles, they will discover the true meaning of unity, the power of sacrifice, and the enduring strength of hope, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
Where the Black Wind Blows
A short story about an agoraphobic woman living alone on a small farm property. It follows her descent into hopelessness at her situation, as well as the increasing tension with her twin, who has been taking care of her. This is very amateur, and I don't usually do creative writing, so I apologize for any messiness or beginner mistakes. The first part was written all the way back when I was still in High School, so pardon the poorer quality there. Any feedback/constructive criticism is very welcome.Complete
You Were Always a Daydreamer Draft Version
When you're forced to mask Reality with Fantasy. The lifted layers finally unveil the tombstone of self. The biggest cities into the tiniest pebbles The massive ideas and thoughts formed into merely something to fear. A protagonist who already forgot his name Remembers He is a Daydreamer. Which is the only way to cope with life after multiple tragedies. And the fraud on fake friends faces. Only to daydream. As losing touch takes a toll on that rotting indulgence slowly. This get's quite horrific as it goes on. It's not to enjoy but to reflect on and experience. I decided to publish the draft version, because I don't think I can fully finish YWAADD final edition any time soon. I am in the worst mental and emotional state ever. It's quite a struggle and I suffer heavily. So yeah, the polished draft kind of holds up aswell too. The final one is way longer and eventful. So, um yeah I don't expect this to get attention at all, it's kind of really mid in some parts. But enjoy, or don't I guess. Yes this was inspired by Everywhere At The End Of Time. And other fan projects.Complete
