How desperate must an artist be in order to play a game with the dead to get their big break?	

Carey and her friends work menial jobs in order to support themselves while pursuing their true dreams - to be artists. They each dream of making it big in their preferred art, but none have been commercially successful. In an act of desperation, they decide to call upon the urban legend of Lindsey, the starving artist.

[Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner] The Redding takes you if it knows your name. That's the rule that's kept Meg alive --- or awake, rather --- since the night the world went to hell. Nobody knows where the red stuff came from, but it acts like water, it's in the water, and it falls as rain every night. The people it captures drop like puppets with their strings cut. They're asleep, not dead, and they can be reawoken. But then they just try to kill you. Meg and the other survivors she's befriended think they've found a stable equilibrium, six weeks after the catastrophe began. In an empty town, there's not much to do except innovate new survival methods. Meg's crush is the one to discover that Morse Code, like writing, is a safe means of communication. That's all fine and good until the nightly rain begins. Raindrops, as it turns out, can make dots and dashes, too. The Redding can talk. And it's telling her to run. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner.

[3rd place winner in of The Beauty Awards 2017] Every ghosts has reasons on why they are still on earth. They have unfinished businesses, they haunt the people that caused their death, or revenge, but one of the three is the topic of this story. Collin Bradey died at the age of 22. He was hit by a car while crossing down the street. Now, he's a ghost. There at the hospital, he met two ghosts and a guardian who calls himself "Reaper". Reaper told them that they must complete their mission with a live companion, or everything will fall apart for the three of them. Now, the three of them, with their companions must fulfill their missions before everything is too late.
