Ever since she was 5 years old, Angie had been different from other people. Ever since that car crash. Poor Angie lost her father and brother that day. But it's what she gained that held equal importance. At first, she had no idea what was happening to her. The doctors sent her off with a diagnosis of synesthesia, but something told her that it was more than that. She didn't quite know what "more" meant. Maybe she was about to find out.

Stacy is an alcoholic mother. David is the father of their toddler. Lulu is the Thai trans woman he cheats with. Maybe that's a good thing? "The Out" is a complete novelette. Rankings: #1 NewAdult (January 1, 2019) #1 MatureRead (November 27, 2018) Note: This manuscript is a second draft that I've posted in hope of critique. So the beginning may be clunky, but it picks up around chapter 3. Thank you for bearing with me.

So, this is my novel for NaNoWriMo 2018! Enjoy! ~~~ Ex-scientist's apprentice Martin Black has a relatively simple mission. Deliver the briefcase. Leave. Get paid. So does frosty hired gun Frances Steele. Kill the target. Leave. Get paid. But the target happens to be Martin Black, who seems to be unable to get hit by a bullet. Somehow, they manage to strike up a deal, and begin their journey to Manning Dam. Along the way, they meet a few fixer-uppers: a senseless chemist who's actually onto something; a gang-member that never truly went straight; a stoic vigilante with an overwhelming hunger for justice; a young aristocrat adjusting to life in the Wild West; a wise-cracking thief with more than a few issues to sort out. But all of them seem to have an enemy in common. And, beyond their knowledge, forces brew. Little do they know their actions will make a difference, and alter their world forever. -- *EDIT* The novel wasn't finished for NaNoWriMo. However, chapters will still be released (though probably not as often). There will be lots of plot holes, but when I finish Draft 1 and edit it, things should be... better.

{Nanowrimo 2018} Morwen Lovell never expected to fail out of college before even declaring a major, but after a failed quest to find a normal, secure place in the world, Morwen returns to Ohio and the familiarity of her parent's Great Midwestern Renaissance Faire. Her summer filled with make-believe royals, pirates, and turkey legs is turned upside down when a dashing knight-in-authentically-replicated-armor, a mermaid, and William Shakespeare come alongside her and help her realize her new destiny: put her outstanding cosplay skills to use and apply to a design school she has only ever dreamed of.
