How far would you go to save the love of your life? Through a portal to another world?
High school sweethearts Sebastian and Gina discover a portal and step through to a world of magical beauty. Gina falls in love with it and stays while Sebastian fears losing touch with Earth and returns. Even so, he is repeatedly drawn back for nefarious adventures, like an addiction, often to save Gina from sordid relationships. Their relationship as soul mates evolves over the hundreds of years spent playing on their adopted home, Ghoupallesz.
From the I.R.S. service center’s night shift, Sebastian feels the pull of Gina in trouble once more. It’s been a while, so he is hesitant to step through that portal, his head still filled with the traumas of previous journeys: his relationship with a Ghoupalle woman and his role in a military invasion force as regimental commander. So this time, he enlists two co-workers, themselves needing a place to escape thanks to drinking the Ghoupalle “elixir of love” accidentally left out.
Sebastian must save Gina—again. Perhaps this time, he hopes, they can remain together, finally be a family. Returning through the door, he must first gather his old comrades from the war, cross the Zet mountains, and free Gina from the Zetin warlord’s castle. Unfortunately, Sebastian finds more questions to be answered. Is his adventure to the other side real, or is it just the dream of a psychotic killer? That’s what the police want to know when he returns without his co-workers.
THE DREAM LAND is an epic of interdimensional intrigue and world domination by a pair of well-meaning hedonists, marbled through with twisted humor and steampunk pathos, a patina of psychological thriller, and the quirky conundrums of time and space.

Your past self has left behind a document, narrating all the events that has happened in the three months. A love story. Between two teenagers, one is a Human and the other, a Spirit. A love that made you do things, feel things, believe in things that you normally wouldn't have. Something that has blinded a rational person like you, maybe for the better, or worse. A love that was the best thing that had ever happened to you. And the worst part? You'll probably never remember any of it ever again. Join Renee and Noah, as they wind their way through carefully planned murders, prying eyes of the ISA, all while creating something highly illegal: The Realm of Renee. ***** 🥇1st place under Fantasy in the Carnival Awards. #1 in #realm.Complete

As a typical corporate employee struggling to find meaning, your monotonous life is turned upside down when you are sucked into a black hole and wake up in a different dimension-a surreal, futuristic version of Earth. Teetering on the edge of insanity after being trapped for days and thinking you were dreaming, you attempt to "wake up" by jumping off a cliff into the ocean, only to be forcefully pulled back by a feisty, purple-haired stranger. Your rescuer, an artist named Rafayel, mistakes you for a suicidal office worker and wonders why you seem so clueless about this world. Despite his suspicions, he decides to take you to his home for the night. In this strange place they call "Linkon City", you struggle to make sense of the world around you and figure out how to return home, all while keeping the secret of your origins and navigating a new, bizarre life as Rafayel's temporary housemate. Will you be able to find your way home? What happens when you start falling for your housemate, who seems to be hiding many secrets himself? And what happens when he unexpectedly awakens your long-buried dreams of being an artist like him?
Into The Starfield (Starfield Fanfiction) ONGOING**
In the vastness of the multiverse, where time fractures and fate rewrites itself, one woman stands at the center of a war that could unravel reality itself... Andromeda Drake has already stepped through Unity, ascended as Starborn, and embraced the power of the black Venator suit. But her journey is far from over. Desperate to reclaim the life she lost, she searches for a way back to Sam Coe, only to make a discovery that changes everything-there is no way back. But this isn't the first time Andromeda has rewritten fate. In another timeline, she met the Hunter-not as the ruthless predator she first knew, but as a younger, ambitious Starborn seeking immortality. Drawn together by forces beyond their control, their relationship became an entanglement of love, power, and conflict. He gave her the Key to Time, a power no other Starborn possessed. And in the end, they were torn apart by the one truth they could never reconcile-he sought godhood, while she only wanted to be free. Now, she has chosen to abandon the Starborn path, remaining in a single universe, determined to leave the past behind. But the past refuses to stay buried. When strange temporal anomalies begin tearing across the galaxy, she and her Constellation allies uncover a hidden war brewing between the Emissaries, the Hunters, and the scattered Starborn factions. As battle looms and alliances fracture, Andromeda finds herself caught between the man she once loved, the one she left behind, and the Hunter-the only other being who shares her black-suited fate. With every side vying for control, she must choose where she stands before time itself collapses. She is the only Andromeda in every universe. And that makes her the key to everything. What happens when time itself is shattered? When you are the only version of yourself that exists... what future will you choose?
Star Rider
Ami: "We may be in different worlds, but we share the same moon and stars." This is a sci-fi love story, dedicated to those people who had to depart... Can you still see the stars in the city's sky? Have you ever imagined that your imagination could transcend what meets the eye? Slowly soaring towards the outer reaches of the solar system, you will encounter Mars first, followed by the asteroid belt teeming with activity, and then the radiant Jupiter and the ringed Saturn. Continuing further, there's Uranus, and beyond Uranus lies the deep blue Neptune, followed by the Kuiper Belt. Farther still is the Oort Cloud, a journey that takes at least 20,000 years... This is a pilot's logbook from the era of interstellar exploration. During that time, fusion technology has become practical, and humanity has embarked on voyages into the frigid expanses of the outer solar system, exploring the Kuiper Belt. Earth remains a stage for political and economic struggles, while the explorers are busy bees of that era, pioneers venturing into various planetary belts, far removed from human civilization. This story encompasses love, longing, psychological descriptions, speculation, as well as themes of loneliness, social anxiety, and PTSD. If you're a tech enthusiast, you'll find foundational elements of interstellar travel here: astronomical units, speed and time, the asteroid belt, Kirkwood gaps, Trojan groups, the Kuiper Belt, Lagrange points, orbital resonance, gravity assist, centrifugal force, the structure and construction materials of interstellar space stations, fusion engines, magnetic confinement, propellant propulsion, and other technological concepts.Complete
Barry's life
Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued
Gamleon's Tail ~ Welcome to the worlds of : Within ~
I wrote this for EVERYONE. To appeal to anyone that reads ANY genre. It combines almost all of them. It's an introduction to the Worlds of Within universe. When you get to the action parts (which doesn't take long) you should be invested enough to want to unravel the mysteries and enjoy its intrigue... The flood is raging. A terrifying, heartless mountain of water, swallowing the world . The tunnel networks? Of course, that won't save them. The forests? Like leaves in a breeze. The lookout towers and trade hubs? Gone. Washed clean. Every home, every last trace of what once was. Gamleon is the first to see it ... and survive. His mind is near collapse, his heart broken. He runs. What would YOU do? What could anyone do? Some scrape by in a mythological setting of beasts and medieval men. Cruel, literally cold-blooded Gorgon hordes enforce an absolute rule slithering in the tunnels beneath the feet of every kingdom. There is an isolated, forgotten place. A cavern, magnificent and vast, older than civilization. A place where the weird and the unwanted might ride out this cataclysm if Gamleon can stay alive long enough to get them there.. In this special place, something incredible, cut off from the outside, lurks. Something... you won't be ready for or ever expect. Gamleon, our weary adventurer, is a paradox: terrifying to some perhaps, yet his heart and intent is helpful, with a quiet dignity bordering on noble, intimidating and innately intelligent. The only way back out is to navigate the Gorgon tunnels. Join him, won't you ? Share his inner thoughts . See and feel how they help us all learn how to persist and triumph in spite of a world where everything is stacked against us. ( sound familiar, it should.) Join him and be swept away as he encounters or invents never-before-seen innovations and outrageous challenges. Dignity meets hope. Self-respect shines beyond courage. Welcome my friend to the Worlds of Within.
