Sentilia
Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.Complete
Bite Me
Andrew Price is in love and he doesn't care who knows it... After all, very soon everyone will be dead. Well... undead is more accurate. It's the genre that keeps resurrecting itself, and just like a zombie it can be rather annoying and somewhat offputting. But this writer may just have one last trick up his sleeve. And he's going to need it. Because Andrew Price is in trouble - government agents want to kill his girlfriend so that he will get back to work. And he's not going to stand for that because it's been a while since he had a girlfriend. Who says chivalry is dead? Trigger warning: This story contains descriptions of suicide, addiction, gore, and some other bad shit. Take care of yourself and make good choices and probably don't read it if you think it's not for you.Complete
