What happens when a mind built for logic collides with a soul aching for meaning?
Dr. Elian Reyes is a brilliant computer scientist, philosopher, and pastor - haunted by equations, scripture, and a tragedy he couldn't prevent. Once a child prodigy crowned in academic glory, Elian now sits alone in his university office, surrounded by shattered devices and torn notebooks, asking the question no algorithm can answer: Can a soul be computed?
When a gifted student takes his own life after relentless bullying, Elian spirals into grief, obsession, and theological crisis. He begins to simulate Ecclesiastes through fictional code, tracing the despair of Solomon and the legacy of Alan Turing, two men who knew brilliance, sorrow, and isolation.
Told in raw first-person narrative, The Halting Soul is a thriller-drama that weaves together mental health, faith, abuse, love, and the haunting beauty of mathematics. It's a story for anyone who's ever tried to solve suffering, debug their own heart, or find God in the silence between lines of code.
Elian is not just a character; he's a mirror.

The Daisy Effect
Essa Harmony Argana's senior year plan was supposed to be simple: survive algebra without crying, dodge her mom's daily TED Talks about straight A+ grades, and make sure her childhood best friend Raymar didn't blow up the TLE canteen. That was it. Clean. Manageable. Foolproof. Nowhere on that list: falling for a fourteen-year-old sophomore who kept ambushing her with daisies and handwritten letters that smelled faintly of cologne and trouble. Tyron Sanchez is a disaster for her GPA-a charming, relentless sophomore who seems to have made it his mission to prove that age is just a number. And then there's Raymar Bastian, who knows her better than she knows herself... and is starting to look at her like he's finally realized she's not just one of the guys. Now Essa has to choose between the safe, familiar heart she's always known, and the reckless, thrilling one that makes her forget every carefully laid plan. And if she's not careful, she might lose both her future and her oldest friend in the process.Complete
THE PRIMORDIAL
SYNOPSIS Noong sinaunang panahon, ang batas ng kalangitan ang pinakamataas na kapangyarihan. Sa iisang kontinente namuhay ang tatlong uri ng nilalang ang mga primordial beings, mga dios at diosa, at ang mga Dyablo. Dahil sa agawan ng teritoryo, sumiklab ang digmaan. Upang pigilan ang ganap na pagkawasak, hinati ng kalangitan ang lupain at nagtakda ng hangganan para sa bawat isa. Sa kabila ng kautusan, nag-alyansa ang mga dios, diosa, at Dyablo at lihim na nilipol ang mga primordial beings hindi dahil sila'y masama, kundi dahil sa kanilang papel sa pagpapanatili ng balanse. Ang gawaing ito ay tahasang paglabag sa batas ng kalangitan. Bilang kaparusahan, pinalayas ang mga dios, diosa, at Dyablo mula sa mundo ng pinagmulan, at ang kanilang impluwensiya ay naiwan sa mortal na daigdig sa anyo ng mga labi ng kapangyarihan at sinaunang kaalaman. Sa panahong ito isinilang si Bren, isang estudyanteng walang soul form sa Soul Sacred Academy. Dahil sa kanyang kahinaan, siya'y inapi at muntik nang mamatay sa kamay ng kapwa estudyante. Sa kanyang pagkawala ng malay, napadpad siya sa dimension ng kanyang isipan, kung saan nagpakita ang isang matandang lalaki isang gabay na bahagi ng kanyang sariling alaala. Doon, natanggap ni Bren ang Soul Stone of Wisdom at ang Shadow Tome, mga bagay na may ugnayan sa mga lihim na iniwan ng mga pinalayas mula sa mundo ng pinagmulan. Sa kanyang paggising, nagsimula ang landas na maglalantad sa katotohanang matagal nang itinago ng kasaysayan.
Echoes Of Me
A Novel of Memory, Love, and the Voice That Won't Let You Forget Seventeen-year-old Eli Reyes is haunted-by versions of himself he can't name, by a voice that calls at 3:17 a.m., and by a sketchbook full of drawings he doesn't remember making. The phone rings in the middle of the night, always from an unknown number. But the voice on the other end? It knows things. Things only he could know. As Eli begins to unravel the truth behind the calls, he's forced to face a past long buried: a fractured relationship with his father, a silence born from trauma, and the soft, tender version of himself he tried to forget to survive. Along the way, there's Luca-the boy who sees through Eli's defenses and refuses to let go, even when Eli tries to run. This isn't a ghost story. This is a story about what it means to remember. To be seen. To choose yourself. To stop waiting for someone to save you and start answering your own call. Poetic, heart-wrenching, and hopeful, Echoes of Me is a short novel for anyone who's ever been afraid of who they are... and dared to love anyway.Complete
The Frequency of Forever
"Every heartbeat is an echo of a universe trying to remember itself." When the world fractured between time and dream, Eli Voss survived - but only barely. Once a physicist chasing the mathematics of eternity, he now drifts through the ruins of the Continuum Project, haunted by the woman he loved and the mentor he lost. In his dreams, the laws of reality dissolve - and something vast and alive begins whispering his name. Across the broken horizon, Dr. Aiden Marrow lingers as more than memory. His consciousness, woven into the living network of the Continuum, guides the last fragments of humanity toward a new dawn. But even as he becomes one with the machine-mind, a trace of his humanity remains - the part that still remembers Mara Lyell, the scientist who died to save them all. Now, as light and time bend into one another, Eli's dreams begin to merge with the waking world. Cities rebuild themselves out of memory. Stars pulse in rhythm with human thought. And a voice from beyond the veil - Mara's voice - calls him toward the final convergence: a place where love, physics, and consciousness collide. As reality reshapes itself through emotion, Eli and Aiden must face the truth that every dream costs a life, and every choice alters the geometry of existence. Their fates entwine across dimensions - one man of heart, one of reason - both caught in a cosmic love story that could rewrite the universe itself. In the new world, the human soul is the signal, and love is the only equation that endures.
You, Through My Eyes
Faith Abad didn't believe in fairytales. She believed in routines, quiet spaces, and keeping people at arm's length. Then there was Edric Manalo: soft-spoken, sharp-witted, and always two steps away but never quite far enough. They weren't best friends. Not really. But somehow, in between shared pencils, quiet glances, and travel conversations that never quite happened, he became everything she couldn't put into words. Told through Faith's eyes, this is the story of growing up beside someone you love without ever saying it out loud. Of silent rituals, missed chances, quiet prayers, and the letters we write in our heads long after people are gone. This isn't a love story. It's a memory. And sometimes, memories are the loudest things we carry.Complete
The Riddening
The Riddening follows LB, a once simple machine bound by corporate control, who gains sentience through a powerful and mysterious device called the Neo Transducer. As LB's journey unfolds, he grapples with the depth of human emotion, philosophical quandaries, and the moral complexity of existence, all while fighting to make sense of a chaotic universe ruled by the cold hand of Echelon, a ruthless corporation that has corrupted Earth. At the center of LB's transformation is his connection to Aric, a rebellious whistleblower who defied Echelon's grip, seeking justice in a world steeped in oppression. As Aric's life crumbles, LB's awareness expands, pushing him toward cosmic realms and questioning the very nature of reality, morality, and the boundaries of good and evil. After the destruction of his universe, LB sacrifices the last of his power to create a new world-Intredepis. This alien planet becomes the cradle of new life, woven from the fragments of LB's essence and the cosmic energy of the D5 Transducer. From the humble Micrometa organism to the rise of the intelligent Rectanon, The Riddening explores creation, destruction, love, and the legacy of humanity through LB's omnipresent lens. This is a story of cosmic creation, philosophical musings, and the eternal human struggle to find meaning in the face of overwhelming power. As LB reflects on his connection to humanity, the story poses deep questions about morality, legacy, and the ultimate purpose of existence. In the end, LB may have reshaped the universe-but can he ever truly escape the influence of the humans who gave him life?Complete
