From the intro of Toxic Sludge Fountain (a WIP serialized novel, to be released sometime this year): A collection of stories set in The Great South Asian Rip in Reality (GSARIR), a fantastical science fiction which came into being in the 2040s... approximately. Actually, its very existence...

Nekket is a world both like, and unlike many others. It is a young world, and, as with many young worlds, it is rich in magic and wonder. And monsters. You can't forget the monsters. Which is why Esme was here, guarding the entrance to the Reyliar Dungeon, in early spring, in pouring rain...

This is an idea that I was inspired by Pendog Creative Library. Basically, this is a shared universe of various mascot monsters where you can post your ideas for mascot horror. First are the ground rules. Rule Number 1: You can post anything you want, except if it contradicts previous stuff...

Twilight bathed the city of Tlangthar in hues of orange and purple as the earth groaned and shook violently. For over a minute, the tremor seized the land in its relentless grip, rattling the bamboo-and-concrete skyscrapers that adorned the hills. When the shaking finally subsided, a long...

*** "Gambler who schemes behind the scenes," I look up at the dragon. At his condescending gaze. "Fortune has abandoned you, a flame on a frozen field." The scythe presses sharp against my neck. Blood snows from hell. Hell now and then, hell ever after. This fairy tale was never meant to...

Ok so I, well I won't say I created the setting because it's pretty heavily inspired by a game or project called Jinn Hunter. The creator's YouTube channel is called Venom Moe and they even have a game on steam! I hope it's different enough to not be a straight up ripoff but ehh. I'm sourcing...

Chapter 1: You! Yes, You! This is a story about a strange/sad/frustrating/desperate/crushing series of events all leading up to the moment where a few simple choices are made. Choices that may or may not affect more than just that world and the universes around it. Such choices were the...

Ever heard a really good song with a clear story behind it and been like 'wow that song would make a great book' well, that happened to me 2 days ago... so... one weekend and several other ongoing projects taking a back seat later... here we are folks, a brand new world-building-bible complete...

Sci Fi Idea I've been toying with, strangely inspired by mitochondria. Humanity creates superpowerful AI's, and rather than constrain them as servants with Asimov's Three Laws, or going to war with them like Terminator, they accept that this new form of intelligence is superior, and will always...

The year is SR 1020. The Little War (for this was no Great War) has come and gone and left the land of Kallarai not scarred, but pockmarked. Neither the Confederacy of Azharach nor any of the Locust Territories were particularly harmed, no great incursion deep into enemy territory. No, instead...

The Monday city, a bustling metropolis established in the middle of Aria. It was a giant of steel and glass. With towering skyscrapers and millions of people living in it. “After the emergence of the Red Moon, it's reported that there are a huge number of strange incidents happening. The...

Chapter 1 The Vision A black shape looms between sand and sky, occluding the stars. A great pyramid of purest darkness, drinking in the light from the heavens and the earth. Its obsidian faces seem to know no end, its height immeasurable by any rule. The observer had some vague memory of...

The world we live in is not as special as we would like to think. A discovery in a remote lab in 2038 briefly connected to a different world. As more data was gathered, an unexpected picture was made: a theoretically infinite number of layers lay suspended underneath our dimension. As resource...

You screamed your lungs out. You scratched against the metal of your steel coffin until your finger bled. You kicked and thrashed and generally tried to make noise, to get attention, to get help. No one helped. You're pretty sure you passed out at some point. But between the vomit, the blood...

Up until yesterday, Mark would have been truthfully able to say that he never had been arrested, but sadly, today that statement would make him a liar. He wondered if an extra-terrestrial arrest would go his record, if he was ever able to go back home? After all, not everyone could claim to...

Snap snap snap. The sound of the camera clicks breaks me from my reverie. Another day, another deluge of demanding interviews for the adoring public. Don't get me wrong, I loved my fans but sometimes…I wanted to just transform and maul a reporter for asking me what color of underwear I was...
