At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)Complete
An Alien Love: Sex And Space (Book 1)
Murry was never really into anything... especially aliens or outer space. Since he is nonverbal and, on the spectrum, no one understands him anyway. So what's the point? After years of living the same way, he had made peace with his life of silence in a group home. But in the blink of an eye, all that changes when he is captured by aliens. Now, lost and wishing to go back to Earth, he clings to his savior. Keltrixtionlenz. Too bad he can't pronounce this creature's name. On his mission to find his missing sibling, Keltrix stumbles across a human. Breaking all the rules, Keltrix brings the alien back to his ship, heals him, and then begins a relationship. He didn't plan any of the things that happen next. By the time Keltrix is faced with Murry's execution, he realizes he loves the strange little being more than his own life. Too bad it's too late. Maybe, just maybe, he can convince his family that love is beyond sex and space.Complete

When she meets an enormous alien man through a window, she slowly comes to realize that she is meant for more. She sneaks away every night after that to meet him, finding herself falling for all 7 feet of him.... even if she can't understand a thing that he says. Fray has come from Rytaria to collect human females, the salvation of his race. As soon as he meets his precious Soleil, he knows he has to have her.

UDM: Free Falling II - Seconds Away (Harry Potter Fanfic)
Something as simple as wishing for a second chance to confess to one's first crush should result in ending up in the world of Harry Potter, but that is indeed what happened to Eugene. Unfortunately, this also means the girl who bullied his crush has a second chance at that as well. Lyra, on the other hand, is starting a new life with her family while dealing with unfounded allegations regarding her new family having unsavory ulterior motives. Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. This is one of my ONC projects for 2024 which is also a sequel to a project from 2021 that may need a bit of editing, yet this should also stand on it's own - aka be able to be read on it's own. The prompt I am using is prompt fifty-nine "Reincarnating into your favourite story wasn't what you had in mind when begging for a second chance.". I am also utilizing prompt sixty-five, "she realized that whenever she let her body fall slowly to the bed, the bed sank and became a portal to another world as a side prompt.Complete
