In a world where people augment themselves with machinery, Sierra's a fixer of parts. She'll repair a malfunctioning metal hand or replace someone's missing eye with a mechanical one. But by night, she's an illegal fighter--illegal because she's a girl. When the king falls and it's time for the elite to fight for their right to rule, she and her companion combine their skills to make their bid for the throne--and fight for Sierra's right to rage.
A/N: I'm back! I mean, I only took a year or two off this story... but I'm hoping to get a lot more up this summer. Give it a chance. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Memento Mori
Welcome to the gladiocracy: a futuristic society where the strongest warriors rule as celebrity kings and tyrants. To those at the top goes prestige, power, and absolute rule. But teenage gunslinger Emilia Mori was born at the bottom. Dealt the life of a street rat in neon-soaked hell, Mori swore to do whatever necessary to survive. By eighteen, she's thriving on the reputation of a daredevil, wrangled the apprenticeship of master gunslinger Sarah Morninghawk, and taking any job her undercity home throws her way- the riskier, the better. The only things holding her back are Sarah's heart of gold and dreams of finally uniting the Vents, the exploited and crime-ridden underbelly of their futuristic metropolis. Yet she's not the only one with eyes on the underworld. Hoping to conquer the undercity for their own aims, the foreign crime syndicate Dynasty has no intention of letting the Vents organize itself in a quest for liberation. The syndicate quickly envelops the undercity's eight gang lords in an all-out war of succession. And Mori, caught right in the center of the conflict, finds herself swept up in the tide of criminal politics and tribal gangster warfare...

Flash Gold (a steampunk adventure set in the Yukon)
Eighteen-year-old Kali McAlister enters her steam-powered "dogless sled" in a race, intending to win the thousand-dollar prize and escape remote Moose Hollow forever. The problem? Fortune seekers and airship pirates are after her for the secret to flash gold, her late father's alchemical masterpiece. With her modified rifle and a pocketful of home-made smoke bombs, Kali wouldn't normally hide from a confrontation, but taking on a whole airship single-handedly is a daunting task. Unfortunately, the other racers won't assist her--they're too busy scheming ways to sabotage her unorthodox sled. When a sword-slinging stranger shows up, wanting to hire on as her protector, she's sure he has ulterior motives, but he's the only one interested in helping her. The question is...why? Flash Gold is the first in a series of steampunk novellas.Complete
The Clockwork Heir
In the heart of a bustling steampunk city, 18-year-old Liora is an orphan working as a clockmaker's apprentice. Her life is ordinary, if not a little dull, until the day an enigmatic customer brings in a peculiar device: a clockwork box engraved with glowing symbols. "Fix this," the customer whispers, "and you'll uncover your destiny." Liora's curiosity outweighs her caution. She spends nights studying the box, discovering that it's not a clock-it's a map. When activated, it projects a shimmering route leading to the fabled "Vault of Aeons," a legendary artifact said to grant its possessor mastery over time itself. Before Liora can make sense of her discovery, she's attacked by a group of shadowy figures, revealing that others seek the box. Fleeing for her life, she's rescued by a roguish skyship captain named Cyrus, who offers her safe passage-if she splits the treasure with him. Reluctantly, Liora agrees, and they set off on an adventure filled with treacherous airship battles, hidden traps, and ancient riddles. As they journey, Liora uncovers secrets about her past. Her parents were not mere clockmakers but key members of an ancient order tasked with guarding the Vault. Her connection to the artifact is stronger than she ever imagined, and unlocking it might not just reshape her future-but rewrite the fabric of time itself. But the closer they get to the Vault, the more dangerous their path becomes. Rival treasure hunters, a crumbling alliance with Cyrus, and the revelation of the artifact's dark cost force Liora to make an impossible choice: seize the power to change the past or protect the present.
