- The planet didn't threaten them. It incorporated them. - In 2186, 1,844 colonists land on Pneuma, humanity's first extra-solar colony, and its last viable future. They survive their first year. This is the story of what surviving costs them. PNEUMA: Book 1 follows five perspectives across twelve months: the chief medical officer quietly running an enhancement program she hasn't fully reported to Command; the commander whose governance model cannot accommodate what the planet is doing to his people; the biologist disappearing into a forest that appears to be learning from him; the doctor's daughter who discovers the difference between being changed and being *recognized*; and the unnamed colonists who want to know that the year they survived counts as something. Pneuma's fungal network doesn't threaten them. By Year's End, the question isn't whether they can live here. It's whether the people who do will still recognize each other. A transmission from Chief Medical Officer Patricia Solis, Day 365: "I want you to understand that I am still doing my job. The colony is healthy. The enhancement protocols have produced measurable adaptive advantages. By your metrics, I have succeeded. I am sending this message because I owe you an honest account of what succeeding looks like from inside it."

❝Maybe I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody new ❞ He writes songs that make millions feel butterflies . But when it comes to her, he can't write a damn thing that doesn't hurt. She is used to being a footnote, he is used to being the headline. Clara Bell was the quiet overachiever - the girl who hid behind perfect grades and classic books. Alex Turner was noise incarnate - chaos,spotlight and the rockstar everyone wanted a piece of. She only meant to work part-time at a library. He only meant to escape the chaos for a while. She never planned to be his muse. He never planned to be her downfall. Neither meant to find home in the wrong person. But now they're tangled in a story that sounds a lot like a love song - and hurts twice as much. Because some love stories aren't made for the spotlight. They are made to wreck you.

Um pequeno conto. Que tem uma sensação muito familiar. Como se fosse o café logo pelas manhas. Recheado de açúcar para retirar o amargor forte. Que as mãos tremulas que a coaram. E essas mãos há muito acariciaram sua cabeça. E ja foram chamadas de diversos nomes na vida.

Every writer carries shadows between their lines. Most give only glimpses of their lives, but Tiffany Guevarra loves sharing her struggles in every page she writes. It began when she felt compelled to write the ideal tale that would enthral everyone. She did not mind doing anything, including recklessly giving herself to someone, as she experimented with every word and situation to write. But regret soon followed. She burned her draft and decided not to share it. Not until she met Sylvester James Walter. She loves speaking to the ocean, so his blue ocean eyes made her speak about her unspoken story. Soon, he too revealed his own hidden wounds. From then on, her pen moved differently. No longer just her battles, but his as well began to bleed into her pages. Yet not every story is meant to be read aloud. Especially the real-life stories disguised in fiction.

Flash fiction featuring a catgirl and a catboy that, thanks to their nature akin to Schrödinger's Cat and other abilities (e.g. nine lives as incarnations), have countless "multiversions" and so can be the protagonists of almost any story... and make a difference with their feline traits and behavior -or just their optimism-
