The world ended in fire. For Eve, it began with an impossible promise. When the mob ripped her little brother, Aidan, from her grasp, Eve was dragged into The Warren-a colossal underground bunker. But this is no sanctuary.
Ruled by the cultish Father Elias, the concrete labyrinth is a totalitarian prison where survival depends on absolute obedience.
Beyond Elias's control, the outer tunnels are swarming with Shades-once-human figures infected with a fast, violent plague.
Fueled by rage and the need to find Aidan, Eve teams up with a cynical young survivor. They discover Elias is up to something far more sinister than controlling the masses.
To find her brother, Eve must do more than just escape. She must dismantle the new world Elias is building from the inside, or risk becoming one of the monsters he's trying to keep locked away.

The Hollowing
The dead have never been so alive. After a deadly contagion reduced the world's population into mindless, undead monsters, the ruins of America still teem with activity, as some of the dead have regained their intelligence and created their own society; one free from the living's touch. Now, more than a decade later, survivalist extraordinaire Liam Fenix undertakes a harrowing escape from the uninhabited island that has been his prison since before the outbreak began, only to discover that he is the sole survivor of the civilization he left behind. He is not alone, however, as reincarnated bounty hunter Leah believes that Liam holds the key to reversing the pandemic that created her race. Armed with their survivalist expertise and following traces of the past, the two must traverse the wastelands together and bring back life to an otherwise dead world, even as they are pursued by a tyrant who does not want this plague to end. ------- Top tags to date: #1 in Gritty 12/21/2022 - 1/11/2023 ------- New chapters will be posted on Mondays, 4:00-6:00PM EST.

Two Worlds, Book 1
🏆Amby Awards Round 2 Qualifier 2025🏆 🏆NanoWatts Sci-fi Winner 2025🏆 📣Watthubcommunity Recommended📣 The end of the world didn't happen overnight; It happened quietly, and no one could've stopped it. Heartfelt, Massachusetts, was once a loving place filled with lovely people. But that all changed when The Veil broke out. For a group of college students, the once bustling halls of Heartfelt College became a fortress and a prison. The story of Two Worlds, Book 1 runs through the Found Family in a Post Apocalyptic scene. It is the first instalment of an ongoing series. Two Worlds does not start like the traditional way of any zombie apocalypse story where you're hit directly into the thick of things. You'd instead get to see how the world actually changes before, during, and after. This story is not just about survival, it's about holding onto what makes them human in a world that has lost all semblance of normality. But as their world narrows and the threat closes in, the question remains: How long can they endure?

Post Plague Kidnapping - Published!
It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.

Wings | Fleeting Feathers Book 0
+ Co-written with Meteoritezr + First rule of living with the Flock? No names. Nothing real anyway. You don't survive with your humanity, you shed it, or it sheds you. Zombies were said to be impossible, that they'd never happen, well obviously whoever said that had underestimated human curiosity. It started with the melting of the Poles, which uncovered diseases that hadn't been seen in millennia. Obviously, when a flesh-eating parasitical virus was found, scientists in all their glory decided to study it, which led to the greatest calamity in human history. Warning: This is the original book 1, it is now considered more of a prelude/building character relationships arc than a book. This provides backstory and sets the foundation for the characters and their relationships. The action starts in the new book 1 - Migration. - TW: Gore, Cursing, Death, etc. Not recommended for anyone who can't stomach gore or other zombie stuff or LGBTQ+. Homophobia will not be tolerated in any way, shape, or form -Complete
