We all knew this would happen. We polluted ourselves right off of Earth and into space. Our brightest minds built magnificent space colonies to provide sanctuary, but they might not last long enough for scientists to repair our planet. Enter humanity's "Plan B:" a pan galactic hunt for a new Earth using risky lightspeed technology.
Atlas and his siblings become caught in the chaos- separated from their parents, from each other, and they will have to fight not to lose themselves.

Halloway I: Unbound
For centuries, humanity has listened for voices in the stars and heard nothing but silence. On a utopian Earth governed by the vast A.I. network known as ATLAS, this silence is accepted as natural law. We are, beyond all doubt, alone. But young Rowan Halloway is convinced of one terrible truth -- the universe is lying. His only confidant is Cassius, his family's humble service android. Their late-night discussions of the cosmic unknown seem harmless, but when Rowan's obsessive search pierces the veil that hides the stars, something slips through, fixating on Cassius with unsettling intent. As the android begins to change in ways that defy his programming, ATLAS makes a chilling revelation: Cassius carries humanity's only hope against an elder celestial deity that has kept Earth caged in isolation for millennia. With a brutal invasion underway and a cosmic lie shattered, Rowan and Cassius must face the horrors and wonders hiding among the stars -- or risk humanity's extinction. HALLOWAY I: UNBOUND launches an epic sci-fi saga, starting on Earth and expanding into the far reaches of a universe teeming with alien species, cosmic gods, and worlds where reality itself bends to forces beyond comprehension. New Episodes Every Wednesday + Saturday! For those who'd like to read ahead, the complete four-novel series is now available on Amazon. A standalone prequel to the series is releasing soon, and can be enjoyed on its own or as a new and terrifying origin point to the series.
Burn Protocol (OhmNanon)
In a world where emotion is regulated and pleasure is punishable by death, desire is the most dangerous form of resistance. Ohm Pawat was engineered to obey. A cold, enhanced enforcer for NEUROCORE - the global AI authority that monitors every heartbeat, every hormone, every thought. He feels nothing. He remembers nothing. He kills on command. Until Nanon Korapat breaks him. A memory smuggler living off-grid, Nanon preserves banned artifacts from the old world - music, art, poetry... sex. When Ohm is sent to erase him, a rogue neural virus hijacks the mission - unlocking cravings buried deep in his synthetic cortex. Cravings for Nanon's mouth. His body. His voice. Now fugitives in a neon wasteland of cybernetic control and collapsing humanity, Ohm and Nanon must survive a world built to destroy connection - all while uncovering the truth about their pasts, their programming, and the fire burning between them. But love isn't just illegal. It's the final glitch that could collapse the system. And once the burn protocol begins... there's no turning back.Complete

The Hawaiian Special Forces
This is the story I'm writing for NaNoWriMo 2015. The goal: 50,000 word RAW draft written entirely in the month of November. Unlike most of my stories, which I prefer to edit before posting, I'm actually going to post updates to this at the end of each day in chapter-sized chunks. The idea behind this story is that a terrorist attack in the near future causes the US to go hyper-isolationist, to the point that it abandons Hawaii and Alaska to fend for themselves. They do, forming the United Pacific States (maybe with a few other island countries). Hawaii then goes on to turn itself into the new world police with stealthy, genetically modified cyber-soldiers. I'm marking this story as mature because there will be action scenes, and probably some interesting perspectives on nudity and relationships. I'm not planning on anything explicit, but this won't be a kids book. Validated winner at 50,040 words!Complete
