Plot: Maxwell James "Max" Xavier is a young stand up comedian dealing with his steadily declining mental health worsened further after his girlfriend dumps him for another man. This novel is part autobiographical, part satire, depicting the author's life in an exaggerated manner as well as criticizing other social issues, all the while keeping the realism of the story. The characters, however, are caricatures of the people the author knew. Not that it matters, anyway. They wouldn't care. They won't read this.

Max and the Universe - Book I
THIS IS A DRAFT. I EDIT IT. ITS ONLY MARKED COMPLETE CAUSE NO NEW CHAPTERS. What if there's a universe where this book is real? According to the multiverse theory-yeah, probably. And in that universe, 14-year-old Max Carsley is trying to survive being a teenager and a prince, all while living in a star-spanning civilization full of alien species, political chaos, and secrets that could shake the galaxy. Flying cars? Check. Wormhole portals? Check. Friends who actually make life make sense? Super check. Max's world is beautiful, messy, and more complicated than he ever signed up for. But the deeper he digs, the more he learns that ruling a planet is the least of his problems. This isn't your average Sci-Fi/Fantasy story. It's a cosmic mix of teen drama, space politics, and autism. And yeah, there's swearing. Yeah, it's a draft. But every chapter matters-so don't skip any. (Note to author: rewrite this)Complete
A Rainbow At The End of The World
The world was ending, which was a pretty major bummer. But, as Lucy and Malcolm saw it, at least they had each other, and also a working jeep. However, unlike most, they couldn't care less about why the world was ending. The two just wanted a place to lay low and make art. Sure, it was totally uncool that towns and cities all over the world were being burned to the ground due to mass hysteria, but the lovers were filled with enough positive vibes (and a decent amount of weed) that they vowed to make this whole 'end-of-the-world thing' work. Little did they realize that the fall of humanity would prove to be the most significant test of their twelve-year relationship. This surreal short story begins four months after the collapse first started, with the ostensibly lackadaisical couple only now managing to find a suitable shelter. Despite the safe haven, the chaotic cacophony of this cataclysmic event still lingers just on the other side of the walls. So, the lovers resolve to ward off the inevitable melancholy that usually follows such tragedies by simply ignoring the events outside, hoping that will keep their relationship (and sanity) from falling apart, unlike the rest of the world.Complete

"Unlovable: A Study in Collapse"
Xavier Smith is not a hero. He's not a survivor. He's a 23-year-old Black man with too much pain, too much self-awareness, and no interest in healing. A failed writer, a college dropout, an addict and a narcissist with just enough charm to keep people close-and just enough damage to destroy anyone who tries. This is not a redemption arc. This is a slow death in thirty chapters. Told in fragments, flashbacks, explicit encounters, and brutal inner monologues, Unlovable is the unflinching autopsy of a man who knew he was broken and chose not to be saved. Through the eyes of the women who tried to love him, the friends who watched him fall, and the world that only clapped after he bled out, this is a study in collapse-raw, lyrical, and unforgiving. For anyone who's ever tried to love someone who didn't believe they were worth the effort. For the ones who almost made it. And the ones who didn't.iComplete
The Novel
Plot: The plot focuses on an unnamed depressed apathetic writer experiencing writer's block. After the success of his critically acclaimed debut novel, The Novel, he runs out of ideas to write for another masterpiece. He goes on a journey, even having to do things he wouldn't normally do just for the sake of getting ideas, just to reclaim his lost creativity, and he also reflects his experiences in life and love. The novel is part satire, part philosophical, due to its existentialist blend inspired from the works of Camus, Sartre, Dostoyevsky, and Kafka with a mix of my trademarks—surreal and dark humor, violence, parody, satirical commentary, horror and shock value, depression, and nihilism. Genre: Transgressive Fiction, Absurdist Fiction R-Rated. For mature readers only. (as usual)Complete
