Does the word ‘endometriosis’ make you want to stick a fork in your eye? No? Then perhaps this book isn’t for you. It’s funny, and (sometimes alarmingly) frank. It contains an impressive array of synonyms for ‘vagina’ and it’s certainly NSFW.
It’s about having a devil womb and a hot knife lodged in my shoulder. It’s about becoming blackly bitter and twisted in my infertility, and then slowly finding a way to untwist myself. It’s part memoir, part dark comedy, wrapped up loosely as a journal full of TMI and quirk.
Let me put it this way: If Helen Fielding and Marian Keyes were to go through IVF, and use Caitlin Moran as a surrogate, this book would be their baby.
Plus:
[SPOILER ALERT] It has a Happy Ending, in the form of a most delicious baby.
It’s called ‘The Underachieving Ovary’ and the 3rd draft is sitting at 96,000 words. It’s set in Jo’burg, but the themes (infertility, hope, eye-forking) are universal.
(The manuscript is currently out for submission)

DISCLAIMER!!!!!! This book is probably very bad! Who am I kidding? there's no probably, it's very bad. There are probably some things that don't make sense or don't add up, and the writing in the first chapters (or all) is bad. I know I have improved but this was just a warning, so I don't get cussed out in the comments. Lol, jk. I wrote this when I was younger (I hated editing) so there are a lot of mistakes with capitalizing, punctuation, sentence structure etc. Read at your own risk. You were warned. ************ Excerpt. The pounding of my head could be heard from a mile away. I closed my eyes tightly and tried not to focus on the pain. I was becoming irritated by both the headache and the stupid chains. I opened my eyes and looked over at my sister, she was sleeping with her head hanging low. I looked away from her and pulled on the chains, ignoring the migraine I'm pretty sure I have. This is just pure cruelty, I really prefered staying in the room. I looked around the room, for what felt like the millionth time within this hour. I took a deep and long breath before I just let my hands hang to the sides of my head in the chains. My breathing slowed and I closed my eyes. When I opened my eyes a while after I noticed that someone was in the room. "What are you doing in here?" I asked. ~~~~~~~~ Highest Rank #1 in General Fiction. New cover made by @lexusloveangels.

Evelina/Velina Storm is a 22 year old half human-half vampire girl who works as a Manager at a restaurant despite the fact that her family is wealthy. You can say that she is the good type of girl but once you hit a bad nerve then well...goodluck. One thing she always keeps in mind is to never show her weaknesses no matter how the situation is. Adam Vernom is a 28 year old Vampire who is also a Ceo of the Vernom Company Ltd. He is the type of guy who you never want to mess with.

What will happen when these two meet? What will happen when Adam know that Velina is his mate? Will Velina resist his seducing ability? Will Adam hate her? After all she is his mate... -------- He yanked me closer to him till our breaths became one and our tips of our noses touched. My eyes bulged like freaking saucers and were staring at his hot ones. "Satan huh? Then Let me show you how he is like." In one swift movement he crashed his plum lips onto mine. I wanted to push him away but could not. I felt my knees buckled and my stomach churned. There was a strange sensation which was restraining me from pushing him away. He plunged his moist tongue inside my mouth exploring every inch of it. My heart was racing and my breaths were hot. I could not help but move in sync with his pace. It was as if it was a magnet pulling me more and more to him. ------- P.s : Please do not copy or take my ideas as they are purely original and my imaginations. Thank you. ♡Also!

Iplier and Septiceye One-Shots/Imagines
Just a book of random one-shots. Some of them are good, most of them are bad. Read at your own discretion, and enjoy! DISCLAIMER: Requests and suggestions have been discontinued on this book! Please go to my second one-shot book to request whatever you'd like! NOTE: Point of view is in the second person unless otherwise stated. And, I like to keep things different around here. You won't always be the lover. Heck, you won't even be the friend at some points. You could straight up be the bad guy in the story. But it'll be fun, I promise. Not all of them are like that. I just write in a darker or more emotional tone when I feel like it. However, if you always like being the girl/boyfriend or the heartbroken lover (which I have nothing against), then this might not be the book for you. There are TONS of other, better one-shot books than mine, and I highly suggest you check them out as well! I find myself in the habit of rearranging the one-shots based off of the part (ex. part one, part two, etc.) so there might be a bit of confusion as to where my parts appear in the book. There are a few reader inserts, for example, there's a one-shot in here that inserts the reader into Matthias' video for Google IRL, but there's only a few of them like that, so it's there if you like that stuff, and there isn't too much of it for people who find it distasteful. Side note, I try to keep this as gender ambiguous as possible. Not all of them will be completely ungendered (if it isn't, it will most likely be female unless someone specifically requested a male reader), but I try to as much as possible. Hopefully, you can forgive me for that. And finally, no smut/lemons. I hope you understand, as I'm not quite comfortable writing that sort of thing. The closest that will get to will be some cuddling and light kissing.Complete

Matriarchy: No Need For Men.
Chapter 2: World War III (Running!!) Men are gone. Women rule. Imagine a world where men no longer matter-would you survive the matriarchy? What happens when feminism goes too far? This book explores the consequences of a future where the natural balance between men and women collapses. Feminism, having transcended all boundaries, reshapes humanity into a female-centered species. Men, stripped of purpose, exist as relics of the past, serving only as pets in a system that mirrors a hive, where women reign supreme. Biologically, mothers are the gatekeepers of life. Historically, survival forced men and women into partnership-men as protectors and providers, sometimes oppressors, while women adapted to survive under natural pressures. But when humanity masters nature, this necessity vanishes. With no war, famine, or struggle, cooperation dissolves. Robots and AI take over all labor, while science frees women from biological dependence on men, allowing reproduction through stem-cell technology. Men are no longer needed for survival, yet they are not entirely discarded, kept instead as sentimental pets. This is the final form of feminism: a system that abandons equality under the guise of progress, reducing men to a perpetual loop of servitude. Matriarchy: No Need for Men critiques a future where dominance replaces balance, and ideology supersedes the natural truths of human existence. It is a stark warning, not only for men but for all who value the delicate equilibrium that defines humanity.

RYA SOLACE & ACE VASILIEV ~~~~ "Please don't hurt me," she begged as tears filled her eyes. I chuckled a little, then took a seat in my chair. I folded one leg over the other and stared up at her before speaking. "I'm not going to hurt you, sweetheart," I assured her, but she looked scared to death. "Why did you kidnap me? I'm useless. There is nothing that I could possibly offer to you," she began blabbering, and I rolled my eyes. "Listen, you have something for me," I told her, and she gasped and placed her hand on her chest. "What could I possibly have for you? Please let me go," she begged. "My baby," I said, and her eyes widened in shock. "What!" She shouted as her jaw dropped. I don't know why, but I found her little reaction cute. "You are insane," she said, and I smirked. "Rya Solace, watch your mouth," I said as I took steps towards her, but she backed away. ••••••••••••••• "Always be a good girl, because good girls get rewards."
