When Sarah Wright's day begins moving backward, she must uncover the truth about her mother's death before time catches up with her. 

★----★----★

It's no surprise that chronically late Sarah Wright wakes up late. Unfortunately for her, she's about to blow the opportunity of a lifetime to interview the reclusive Professor Anthrop. But, when she arrives to find the professor has died under mysterious circumstances, she realizes that time is on her side in more ways than one. 

As the clocks begin to tick backward, resetting her day, she soon discovers that the professor's death is tied to her mother's fatal accident two decades prior. What she doesn't know is that those closest to her have been keeping secrets that threaten her life, and unless she uncovers the truth about her mother's death, the clock will stop forever.

The Tragedy of Eden's Gate

14 parts Complete

When a dark situation leads Theo to the quiet village of Eden's Gate, where the residents are odd and the pool of friends severely lacking, he's less than thrilled. The town is a miserable means to an end. And, to make matters even worse, he's pretty sure the house is haunted. Cold spots, flickering lights, a shadow that won't stop following him- a recipe for a haunting, and for a complete disaster. Sam is a vengeful spirit, cursed to walk the halls of his own murder scene for the rest of eternity, doomed to an afterlife of dismal solitude. And then his favourite resident goes and dies, the house is given to new people, and Sam discovers - quite by accident - that the boy sleeping in his room can see him. And he is the only one who can help Sam solve his murder. ───── • ⋆⋅⛧⋅⋆ • ───── Status: Complete Story length: 40,000 words ONC 2023 Prompt: • They were not real, everyone told me they were not real.
