《The Fiasco》Book 2, The Fiasco In School; Your Fair Warning
Advertisement
As always, there's a few things to point out before we get too far.
This is part two in a three part tale. With the first, I was told my adventures are a bit insane. Some cried that it broughtup bad memories, and I understand. I’m not trying to hurt anyone’s feelings or be spiteful. I was told my tale wanders. There's valid reasons where I'm totally not engaging in avoidance by thinking about other topics.
Other topics of note include violence, aliens, titties, and otherworldly beings from outside our plane of thought. If you’ve been probed and don’t want flashbacks, avoid this tale. If you’re prone to nightmares that summon elder gods, I’d suggest avoiding this tale. If perky nipples bother you, go somewhere else. If Alice is reading this, I'm kidding about the perky nipples.
We’ll start with my latest meet with Wilhem Walker. He’s a powerful jerk who makes Ted look like a saint and could have avoided all this trouble if he wanted to. But he didn’t, and for that I hate him.
We’ll meet my family. Who was there, once, and I’d thought they ran away when my problematic powers appeared. Only reality turned out worse than them avoiding me. I’ll explain how I found them again; then lost them, again. It serves to make a bad series of events worse.
Then there’s Alice, and explaining why matters here would be a spoiler. But she does. More than I’d ever have expected. And who was I kidding, Alice can't...
Never mind.
Maybe by the end, you’ll understand what brought me to my final acts of desperation. You know, the reality ending kind.
Once again to be clear, reader, listener, or unlucky psychics who can only hear my voice, this is me warning you.

Dust: A Romantic Apocalyptic LitRPG Novel
When a strange dust storm hits the Berkeley campus, a thousand years of technological progress are wiped out in a matter of hours. Two students, socially anxious Alf and triple-amputee Blix, must fight for survival while clouds of swirling dust turn their safe, familiar world into a monster-filled apocalypse. Then, because things aren't crazy enough, a female voice inside Alf’s head claims he's her avatar. If he doesn't keep her entertained, she'll take back the controls. WARNING: If you like stories that start out with perfect, over-powered, emotionally withdrawn alpha male protagonists, this story isn't for you. If you like stories that start out with physically perfect, demure, wilting-violet female protagonists, this story also isn't for you. If you're looking for harems or murderhoboes or objectification or porn, then you should probably look elsewhere. But if you are a romantic and have the patience to watch two imperfect characters blossom over time, then welcome to my world.

AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published!

[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The year is 2202. Pandemics, apocalypses, demons, and nuclear war have ravaged the planet. Climate change has become nearly random. Forests have become desert. Tundra has become rain forest. The Amazon is infested with monsters. The world is split in a super power dipole in name only. The ten billion humans left on Earth follow whoever is closest at hand that can feed them. Special Operative Iris Haber has become one of "America"s most important war assets : a human capable of entering radiation zones. The only organic parts of her left are her brain and her heart, easily shielded. The only land that matters anymore is farm land, and the only people who matter are the ones able to capture that farm land.
