When the mind breaks, reality bleeds.
Iris Ashvale leads a mundane, miserable, and seemingly pointless life as she enters adulthood, haunted by her own thoughts.
Meanwhile, her mother, Evelyn Ashvale, is one of the most successful people in the quiet English town of Gravenford. She works at the helm of a team of government scientists on top-secret projects, and their latest endeavour is their most ambitious yet. Although classified, rumours whisper that her current research seeks to explore a hidden boundary between thought and matter.
The stark contrast between the pair exacerbates Iris' anxiety and depression. Alongside her feelings of loneliness and dysphoria, Iris is prepared to give up on life entirely.
Then her mother presents a proposition: an internship at her workplace - not as a fellow scientist, but as a subject.
Iris can't refuse.
What follows will see her fractured mind become the epicentre of a catastrophic event - one that threatens to let every repressed nightmare humanity has ever buried bleed into the real world.
The Mind Fracture is a dark psychological sci-fi horror about repression, identity, and the cost of using pain as power...

Finding You in the Dark
I was a victim of a serial killer-the only one who made it out alive. I was kidnapped when I was 19. Kept in a small, suffocating room with no light, no sense of time, no hope. My only companions were the screeching of rats and the silence that gnawed at my sanity slowly. I tried to escape-of course I did. But the room offered nothing. No tools, no weak points. Nothing. My captor knew this. He made sure of it. So I stopped hoping for freedom. I knew how this story would end. And when I dreamed, it was of light and voices-a cruel trick of my mind. Until one day, the dream felt different.Complete

The Thing at the End of Time
A haunted mansion with a cruel secret. A timeline that seems to have shifted. A stoner space wizard who may not make it out alive. In the spectral halls of Carrington House-looming at the edge of a fog-choked Victorian moor-Professor Steph Thorncroft, a sharp-minded trans woman with a spine of steel, investigates a series of supernatural disturbances. But the deeper she digs, the clearer it becomes: something far more sinister than ghosts is at work. The house's master, Lord Carrington, is not just a sexist aristocrat-he's the leader of a secretive cult obsessed with fulfilling a dark prophecy tied to an ancient god known as Xalithar the Merciful. Behind the estate's locked doors and beneath its creaking floorboards, horrors are waiting to be unleashed. Across the stars and centuries away, StonerSteve, a soft-spoken, asexual space wizard, is trapped in a timeline that won't stop rewriting itself. Something (or someone) has altered its ending, and every moment could be his last. With only his sarcastic slug navigator Gary and a half-broken space van called the Quantum Drifter, Steve races to uncover the timeline's hidden truth before it collapses completely. From opposite ends of time, Steph and Steve unravel a shared mystery that ties their fates together. Along the way, they face not only cosmic forces and crumbling realities, but the personal horrors that come with being queer in a world that doesn't always want you to exist-especially in Steph's era, where simply living as herself is an act of rebellion. Blending gothic horror, science fiction, and dark comedy, The Thing at the End of Time is a love letter to trans resilience, queer friendship, and the weirdos who fight for a better timeline-even when the universe is falling apart. If Doctor Who took a detour through The Haunting of Hill House and stopped to hotbox with Night Vale, it might look something like this.Complete
