Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist
While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.Complete

The Enigma Protocol: No Brother of Mine (Book 1)
Two estranged brothers. One ancient secret. And nowhere to run, not from Enigma, and not from each other. But history won't hand you the truth. You'll have to piece it together yourself. Ask questions. The story might answer back. *** Teorin is close to uncovering the truth behind his father's disappearance, until a stolen drive puts him in the crosshairs of the one person he can't outrun: the brother who left him behind. Marcus walked away to protect his family. Now an old ally drags him back into his brother's orbit, forcing a choice: expose the truth, seek revenge, or protect the brother he thought he'd already lost. In a world scarred by solar storms, power isn't just political, it's biological. People are born with affinities-heat, memory, pressure, time-and someone in the shadows is erasing anyone who digs too deep. 📖 Told through prose, in world documents, and comment threads (yes, the actual comments). Each voice carries its own style, from clipped restraint to dramatic flair. The Enigma Protocol isn't just a story; it's a reconstruction. You'll have to decide where the truth lies. A slow-burn science-fantasy epic for fans of The Expanse, Mistborn, and Annihilation-where found family and fractured loyalties collide with ancient mysteries. 💬 Take part if you want. Ask. Dig. Connect the dots. The story gives as much as you do. ⚠️ Warning: Characters may break containment (yes, they might reply to you). Meet your host on the "Welcome Page"-an optional in-universe introduction. Also available on Royal Road.
