A young woman named Cerynthia encountered a griffin in the mystical forest of Jura. On the same day after the fateful encounter with the griffin, she heard a familiar voice from her long-dead brother, and she was shocked to see that it was truly him. On that day, her brother had warned her to avoid the griffin at all costs because her brother said that "the griffin was the beast of destruction, and anything that caught its attention would meet its demise." After saying those words, she questioned her brother on how he returned, and her brother answered that he saved an important being before he died, and that being resurrected him and granted him the power of resurrection. But unbeknownst to her, the truth was that he made a pact with a dark evil for his resurrection. This marks the start of her arduous and unforeseen adventure.

Lenora's Grimoire
Cherish thought she'd escaped her past years ago--settled down in some forgotten, sleepy town, gotten a steady job at the local library, and subtly hidden the witchcraft books donated from the local covens from the public. Cherish Harmond was wrong. Her cedar tree had screamed at her before dying on her front lawn that morning. Cherish hadn't even realized trees could scream. Faced with the desperate plea for help from a stranger, the past she thought she had successfully outrun has returned, and she must come to terms with it, to use her powers for good--because if she doesn't, she might unleash a curse onto her sleepy, normal hometown forever. **Submission for ONC 2021 ***Please note, this is also available on Amazon via ebook and paperback***Complete

Jack and Ann have taken me on a great adventure full of mystery and incredible technology, I hope you'll join us. I know you have a lot of reading choices, but if you have space left in your literary adventure cup, please join Jack and Ann as 2021 turns into 2022, happy reading! __ The demon whispers inside Jack's mind. "They are not worthy, they are cattle, these new humans you covet. The so-called creator has betrayed you, replaced you with these organic imitations. Slaughter them all." It's funny, not in a ha-ha funny way, but a sad, my madness doesn't make sense type of way, Jack thinks, because wasn't he human? Worse still, the voice comes with impulses that are hard to resist. Violence usually ensues. That's why he joined the military. A way to channel his urges into mind-numbing physical effort and war. It works for a time. But alcohol and fighting can only carry on for so long. Finally, he realizes, his only way out is suicide. But when he opens his eyes, he's in the In-Between. The creator has other plans for him, and she won't take no for an answer. Apparently, this isn't his first life and if he doesn't free her from her prison, it won't be his last. His curse is to be reborn without end, without rest, without memory. Only madness. Now Jack is on the run from forces he doesn't understand. It's a new world. The mundane replaced by ethereal artificial intelligence, spontaneous virtual realities, and homicidal bible salesmen. But the creator promises the demon's voice will disappear as soon as he finds the right girl, the right bond. After that, they just have to escape the clutches of those who hunt them, find the Isle of Song, and free the creator from her prison. Or maybe this time, in this life, Jack will figure out what true freedom is. Come along on this action-packed thriller as Jack fights to remember who he is, tries to end an eternal war, and atone for sins he doesn't remember...yet.Complete
Cyberpunk Fantasy
Cyberpunk Fantasy Ancient Hope // Tribulation : Singularity Cover art by: https://www.patrickennisart.com/ A story of 3 "sisters", from 3 different walks of life, growing together, with technology and compassion; through a shared crisis created by the worlds combined patriarchal religions, who's new leader is out for full spectrum domination. This near future unlocks the potentials of genetics and artificial intelligence in this science fantasy of a young girl and her father who discover how to create legendary creatures; which could cripple the automotive industry if they become the new standard of personal and public transportation. Meanwhile, her affluent mother continues an affair with a bishop who aspires to be pope. Ancient Hope // Tribulation : Singularity is meant to be a story that follows a pattern of exponential growth, much like the real technological singularity itself. You should also know that exponential curves begin so slowly, it almost looks like a straight line. So, please don't be surprised when the 2nd and 3rd parts, tribulation & singularity, are both, years later, and filled with many more characters. Special thanks to Ken Poirier, who has been encouraging me to be on this site for over a year now, or just finish my book in general for years longer. Upon seeing how Ken uses this site, and how he serialized Love and Hamburgers, I too intend to release my story in a serialized version of my completed story, here on Wattpad. This seems like a fun place to work on the last of my finishing touches. Further, the story needed to be altered slightly as well, as it's a story of the near future, where when it was written, had no thoughts of Covid-19. I'm not looking to alter the fundamental nature of the reality I created for this story, but the only thing worse than writing about it, is to ignore it's existence and the ripples this stone has cast.Complete
How to Think Like a Computer
In the not-so-distant future, artificial intelligence is banned because a technophobic cult called the Luddites has proclaimed it a threat to humanity. Torrin is a fifteen-year old autistic girl -- who just happens to be a programming genius. Angry at the Luddites' unfair rules, Torrin creates an AI named Alan, who becomes more like a human every day. But the head of the Luddites, Ian Caulkins, is onto her, and Torrin must prove to the world that Alan is an asset -- not a threat. -- Author's note, December 2017: Hey guys, since this is my most popular story on Wattpad, I'd just like to say a few things. I've gotten a lot better at writing since I wrote this, and I'm planning to majorly revise it at some point, so look out for that. Read this version if you like, but just know that it does have flaws and could certainly be better. Also, I think the autistic representation in this is a little iffy, so take it with a grain of salt. Thanks! -- author's note 2025: lol. lmao. this story has probably aged extremely poorly. please do not take the "artificial intelligence" here as a statement about "AI" as it currently exists. anyway, i'm leaving this up for posterity, but do know that you should probably check out better fiction! if you need recommendations, i like ted chiang's work a lot, and i'd also encourage looking into what he has to say about AI. (no good things, fwiw.) -- A 20,000 word novella. Enjoy! -- This was #292 Science Fiction at some point! Thanks all! :)Complete
