Synopsis
Elian has always walked the thin edge between sleep and waking. Born with the forbidden gift to step inside the dreams of others, he treats it as a secret refuge-a place where he can scatter nightmares, weave comfort, and whisper hope into restless minds. But gifts such as his are never without cost.
Lately, the village has begun to change. Friends awaken with memories they never lived. Strangers claim to have shared the same impossible dreams. And in the dead of night, Elian begins to see cracks in the fabric of reality-shadows that slip through when no one is watching. What should have been harmless illusions now leave scars that linger long after morning light.
When a cloaked order arrives, seeking dreamwalkers to harness their power, Elian learns that he is not alone-and that his ability is far more dangerous than he imagined. The dream-realm, vast and hungry, is bleeding into the waking world, and every choice he makes within it ripples outward like a storm.
To save his people, Elian must descend deeper into the labyrinth of dreams than he ever dared, where time unravels, voices whisper lies, and nightmares wear the faces of those he loves most. But as reality bends and fractures around him, one question haunts his every step: what if the world he is trying to protect is only another dream-and he is the one who needs to wake?
"When dreams bleed into reality, nothing is safe-not even the truth."

Insomnia Wake #Wattys2016
What do you dream about? Adventure? Love? Bravery? What if your dreams are but another reality? Can you trust them? In Insomnia Wake, everyone is free to do as they please, both good and bad. The world isn't bound by the same rules as traditional society. Everyone here has a lust for their own adventure, no matter how big or how small. One day when Neuman is born into this new world, he is greeted by all sorts of interesting people, abilities that reflect the very sub-consciences of people, and a different breed of trouble than he is used to. Even if it is a sort of dream, does that make who he meets, what he does, and how he feels any different than that of his traditional "reality"? Or perhaps is this even more real than before? {(Hopefully) temporary cover done by me}Concluida
Temporal Tantrums
What if someone was interfering with your dreams? Why do dreams seem to tell stories over which we have no conscious control? Who decides what gets into our dreams... ...and what gets out? What if the line between stories and reality blurs? If our own story was told would we really be the character we think we are? Who says that our personal perspective of reality is the only one... ... or the real one? What if travelling in time was possible for you? When would you go and would you be able to get back? If you met yourself would it really be you... ...or another person very like you? Book 1 of the epic series Tales of Strangeness and Charm. Follow Temporal Tantrums: To Discover If Reality Can Get Any Weirder Every time you think the plot has reached peak absurdity, someone pulls the rug out and exposes new depths. Is there wisdom in the chaos? This unpredictability mirrors the twists and turns of time travel, where nothing is ever as it seems. Because It's Not Just the Characters Losing the Plot In this universe, narrative amnesia, time loops, and characters with overlapping manifestations in different stories leave you wondering who's writing whom. This highlights the chaotic, mind-bending nature of the time travel narrative. Because It'll Make You Question Your Own Reality You'll start to wonder if the random events in your life are part of a greater narrative or just cosmic chicken scratching. This suits a time travel story where reality and timelines blur, keeping readers on edge.
NOCTUARY: A journal of my dreams
What if your dreams weren't just dreams, but a second life you live every night? Be warned: what you read here could change the way you sleep forever. NOCTUARY is the logbook of that parallel life. It is not a collection of fantasies, but the raw-and at times terrifying-narrative of a soul that leaves its body each night to venture into the world. These are inexplicable chronicles of dreams: experiences in real places, with real people, and the strange ability to return to bed at will. But the return is never complete. The border between worlds is permeable, and something always seeps through. Each awakening is a race against forgetting: to decipher the last night's revelation or warning, to understand how it's possible to return not just with memories, but with proof. Sometimes, it's with a bit of real dust on your feet. These stories immerse you in a reality where the rules are broken and the questions become unsettling: What is consciousness when it can leave the body? And what is the real world when you can bring back fragments from another? After reading this, you will never sleep the same way again.

The Exiled Heart
Elian: Elian is a rare soul caught between worlds. He's quiet yet resolute, carrying an innate gentleness that belies his formidable origins as the child of two gods. With an intense love for both realms, Elian's heart is his greatest strength but also his vulnerability. His appearance reflects his celestial heritage-a striking figure with ethereal features and a gaze that holds a thousand secrets. Despite his divine lineage, Elian harbors a longing to belong, to love, and to protect those who cannot protect themselves, but fate seems set on testing the limits of his loyalty and heart. Caius: Prince Caius is as magnetic as he is enigmatic, a man forged by the harsh expectations of royalty in a realm where power defines worth. Beneath his princely charm and calculated exterior, Caius hides layers of ambition and conflicting loyalties. Often seen in dark, regal attire with piercing eyes that can both captivate and conceal, Caius knows the art of manipulation, a skill that has served him well. But as he's drawn deeper into Elian's orbit, his carefully maintained façade begins to fracture, hinting at a side to him that even he may not fully understand.

The blue ultimatum (ultimate leveling)
In a world where power hides behind science and divinity bleeds into lightning, a child was born from an impossible fusion of cosmic energy and human life. His name was Eli Christ, son of a global industrialist and a woman whose prayers for a child echoed into heaven-and into something else. But when a family friend, Dr. Xavier Letterson, discovered the strange phenomena surrounding Eli's birth, his obsession turned to betrayal. Under the guise of research, Xavier orchestrated Eli's kidnapping, determined to uncover the truth behind the boy's otherworldly aura. The night they took him, gunfire tore through the dark-his parents fell, though Eli never knew they survived. Somewhere between fear and fury, something inside him awakened. The storm within broke loose. Every machine screamed, every light shattered, every man in the lab turned to ash. When it ended, only silence remained-and Eli's memory was gone. Years later, he would awaken in a quiet town, raised by strangers, haunted by dreams of thunder and fire. His past erased, his destiny hidden beneath ordinary skin. Somewhere out there, a girl exists-tied to him by forces neither can yet understand. She is his calm and his undoing, though neither knows why. And when the storms return, so will he. Eli Christ. Elthunderel. Alien Voltreon. A forgotten god in the body of a boy-destined to remember what the world tried to erase.
Linger
Ira has always lived slightly out of sync with the world. A 27-year-old artist drifting between rejection emails and half-finished sketches, she's grown used to the quiet ache under her skin - that feeling something important is just out of reach. Her days blur into lukewarm coffee, too-loud clocks, and dreams she can't quite shake. Dreams of black sand, twin moons, and a boy with storm-colored eyes who seems to remember her. When a strange mark begins to glow on her wrist - delicate, crescent-shaped, and definitely not a birthmark - Ira writes it off as stress. Lack of sleep. Maybe delusion. Until she sees him. In the metro station. On the page. At her door. A man who shouldn't exist outside her sketchbook - but stands in her living room with a voice like silk and eyes like the end of the world. He doesn't tell her his name. Not right away. And when he does, it tastes like something she was never supposed to remember. Rei. As her memories begin to blur with dreams, and the world starts glitching around her - Ira is forced to question everything. Familiar people vanish. Reality slips. And every line she draws pulls her closer to a truth her body remembers... even if her mind has tried to forget. There are gaps in her past that don't make sense. A childhood disappearance no one explains. A voice she's heard before, whispering from somewhere behind the veil. And a pattern of disappearances that all seem to follow in her wake. Because Ira isn't just remembering Rei. She's waking something older. And it's waking her back. Linger is a slow-burn romantic mystery woven with fantasy, memory, and myth. It's about the soft terror of forgetting, the sharp intimacy of being seen, and the aching pull of a connection that defies logic, distance, and time. Some doors, once opened, don't close quietly. And some names, once spoken, can't be taken back.Concluida
