Two hundred years in the future, Earth's rural lands have all but disappeared. The rest of the planet's surface is one huge city called Metropola.The only place on Earth where no one from Metropola has gone is called Hatari Island. It is located in the south pacific and served as a breeding ground for genetic experimentation in the twenty-second century. Its megafauna is unlike anything the planet has ever seen before. However, there are people on the island, called the Kupata, who have been there for as long as anyone can remember. They still live the old way and shoot bows and arrows and gather their food. But the island is not what it seems. Pretending to be shareholders in a science program on the island, the world's richest men are using the island for something terrible. Something the natives call "Thunder Season." Into this world comes Bahati. Bahati was born on the island and wear the claw of the most powerful beast on the island around his neck. He, like the rest of his people, does not know anything about the existence of Metropola and its people. He has never seen those who come to the island from that place. One day, however, he meets a shipwreck victim named James Goodman, who tells him about the rest of the world. James quickly figures out the island's true purpose and he and Bahati escape with a ragtag band of rebels to tell the rest of the world about the atrocities there. Together, they seek the help of the Metropola council and campaign for the Kupatas' freedom. Unfortunately, a strange twist of events sends Bahati back to the island. There, he is subject to the hardest test he has ever had to pass. Losing will mean certain death. Winning will mean freedom for all his people.

But what happens, when on the day of graduation, a CIA agent comes up to Lena congratulating her, and telling her 'Welcome to Project Nightlight.'

Admins at Writers Coming Together to Write thought it would be a great idea to put together a survival guide to 30 straight days of writing. In this we focus mainly on CampNaNoWriMo, but it can be for any 30 days of writing, or for any NaNoWriMo event. We have put together 30 days of posts for everyone to benefit from, including some special guests such as: Valerie Flokstra, Gabryelle Young, Kae, Michelle Wiedenbenner, K.M. Wieland, Laura Michelle Thomas and Lurlene McDaniel

| this is currently in progress, written as a part of Camp NaNoWriMo, July 2015 | As your slightly lamer-than-usual teenage male, Sorrel stood out. His paintings and drawings were a massive target - one that he refused to give up. He loved drawing. He wasn't going to stop that because of a group of bullies. But how else could he cope? Desperate for any escape from reality, Sorrel finds himself in the middle of the forest behind his house, where he finds the Rift. He finds everything he could hope for - and more, in a magical realm called Sage, just a step away from the harsh realities of his human realm. There he sees his imagination come to life, with faeries, queens, intricate ancestry, and infinite amounts of magic. | part of a series entitled the Evergreen Chronicles. this is book one |

Sequel to Counting Sheep. Many Years have passed since Sage`s games. The Period of Fire has passed. Along with any traces of Rebellion. It is time for the 4th and Final Quarter Quell. It is time for Panem to know it's true evil.

Imagine a world where the chicken never thought about crossing the road. A place where technology doesn’t exist. No, not ‘caveman times’. Right now – yes, your little corner of the world. Imagine if you were growing up in this exact same era, yet things are completely different than how you are used to them being. For just a moment, close your eyes and pretend that you aren’t completely human. Imagine some parallel universe in which you live a completely different life. Two different identities residing in two separate universes that never met. Is that plausible? Well, does part of you wish for it to be true? Yes? Then, it’s definitely plausible. Anything is. Oh, so now you are dreaming of such a universe and such a lifestyle. Well, dream on, my child, and never do stop. **** Two different worlds are invading the spacious universe, yet one lies in a parallel universe from the other. Earth – the world that all is familiar with. It’s normal and can sometimes be called ‘boring’. On Earth, on the exuberant street of Kenyon Ave. lies a small local restaurant where all of the teenagers and ‘hipsters’ cling to – Kenyon Burgers and Fries (K. B. F.). There is a door in the back room of the restaurant that has been locked with the key lost for centuries. No one knows, but behind that door lies a parallel universe – Elmwood. This universe is none like the one you know – the internet is not a thing that exists there, but why would Elmwoodians need it? They have magic. Yes, as in witchcraft and wizardry. Elmwood is everything but what you would expect.
