A young man awakens in a forest with no memory, an incomplete word echoing in his mind and a stake through his chest... without being dead. After becoming a media sensation and disappearing from a hospital under impossible circumstances, only a whispered name and a disturbing certainty remain: his body doesn't obey normal rules, and his past hides something the world isn't yet ready to understand.

#WitchcraftWednesday | ✔
[ONC 2023 and Wattys 2024 winner!] Drug dealer Nathan just can't be bothered to care about some of the stranger things in his life. Like the spellbook he found, complete with working magic and all. Okay, fine, maybe he tried one spell, and maybe that ended with his curtains on fire. Lesson learned: leave forces you don't understand alone. Powerful magic or not - for Nathan, this is just another Wednesday. Not everyone shares his opinion. When YouTube sensation Jamie insists on making a video about his discovery and said video goes viral, Nathan finds himself in a spotlight he completely failed to foresee. While he struggles to adjust to his newfound fame, Jamie and her oddly charming eccentricities drag him into a wacky investigation of his magical tome's origins and true nature. Finding answers shouldn't be that hard. But Nathan's criminal associates want his spellbook for themselves. And they'll stop at nothing to get it. ~Book one in the Witchcraft Wednesday Investigations trilogy~Complete
More Than a Dream (ONC 2026)
Ella Hudson-Woods is the nicest girl at Briarleaf High School. But kindness can sometimes become a target. When Orion Decker, the school's charming quarterback, pulls a cruel prank at the Winter Formal, Ella's world turns upside down. Soaked and humiliated, she escapes to the football field, where an unexpected visitor - a Fairy Godmother - offers her a chance to rewrite her fate. The Fairy Godmother says she can send Ella in the past to change everything from happening, and Ella accepts - and uses her mother's locket as collateral. So, Ella travels a month in the past and changes one thing: she ends up partnering with Dalton Kinslow on the big end-of-the-semester project in their Honors English class. The problem with this partnership is that Dalton is the school's biggest troublemaker and, coincidentally, the mayor's son. But as the timer counts down to a hypothetical midnight, Ella realizes that magic isn't always useful. How can she and Dalton brave past the strange things happening to them? By the end of it all, Ella hopes that it was all more than a dream. --- ONC 2026, PROMPT #13: "A quiet student is stuck sitting next to the school's resident troublemaker year after year. But when a wish unexpectedly changes the troublemaker's ways, both must face new feelings and the strange magic behind the transformation."Complete

Black Thickett / ONC 2026 /
Edmund comes to the remote village of Black Thickett to escape the life grief has carved out of him. He wants silence. Distance. A place where memories can't follow. But Black Thickett is wrong in quiet, unsettling ways. The broken road becomes perfectly smooth the moment he crosses the boundary. The cottages are too neat, too deliberate. And on a noticeboard full of dry flyers, only one poster is wet. A missing boy, smiling as if he doesn't know he's lost. The villagers won't talk about the disappearances. The forest at the edge of the village seems to breathe, and the deeper Edmund goes, the calmer he feels... dangerously calm. The forest can quiet his pain. It can ease his grief. It can make him forget. But not everything that heals you wants you to survive. Welcome to Black Thickett, where you'll find my entry into the ONC 2026.Complete
I Will Always Remember You | ONC 2026
Delilah Daine is the most ordinary girl in existence. At least that's what she wants everyone to believe desperately. After spending years in a residential treatment center as a pre-teen, she wants to be normal and fit neatly into the popular mold society creates for girls her age. She has a social media account, so she isn't considered too closed off, but she only posts nature photos and shares cute animal videos. She works as a librarian surrounded by people every day, but after work, she prefers to stay home and be alone. Her carefully curated existence shatters when she receives a letter from someone every doctor insisted never existed - a person who was supposed to be nothing more than a figment of her childhood imagination. Nathaniel Fitzpatrick knows he must leave Europe, especially after spending years caged in a delusional scientist's basement as a test subject. Only one thing keeps him from boarding the ship to America and disappearing for at least a decade - Delilah. A talkative little girl who once showed him he shouldn't spend the rest of eternity hidden in dark caves, only coming out for food. He decided weeks ago it would be best to write her a thank-you note before his departure and forget about her, the way he assumes she forgot about him. But now that it's time to board, he realizes a simple letter isn't enough. He needs to know if she's even alive and what kind of person she has grown into during the years he was imprisoned. People change, and he has to find out whether the only good person he has ever met managed to retain her kindness and compassion - or if she lost that battle the moment she grew up, the way most humans usually do.
These Godless Depths | ONC 2026
There are strange creatures in the water - and TEMPEST RAERIR is tasked with keeping them there. The gods have long since abandoned the Queendom of Khaedel, letting monsters of the deep plague the land with sickness and death. She defends the shores and kills anything that dares to step onto the sand. When one of the queens of Khaedel - Tempest's mentor - falls ill, her duty switches to saving who she cares about most. And she just might be the key to saving everyone. The deeper you go into the Arnstar Ocean, the more powerful the creatures become, and THE WARDEN'S duty is to keep them all in line. For centuries, the magic keeping the most depraved monsters at bay has been waning. Now that cracks have cut through the surface, the Warden faces no choice but to obtain the help of the beings that despise them the most. Tempest and the Warden must band together and venture as far down into the Arnstar Ocean as they can to seal the fissures. Only, getting there might not be as easy as they thought. Can they survive the battles with the leviathans that lurk in the darkness? Or will they prove the gods right that the land is hopeless? ONGOING 2026 © -DeeIsDead-
