《Handcuffed》Author's Note
Advertisement
Alright guys, first off, I want to really and sincerely thank you guys. I have gotten so many comments compared to my last book Island Rush. And I mean, a lot more to the point where it is crazy to think that this is happening to me. I really want to thank you guys for the support, the comments no matter what the are, the advice, and especially the opinions and input. You guys are absolutely amazing and I can't thank you enough.
Second... I just want to say how great of an experience it was writing this book. It was much more fun on my part because Albany was just so funny and great to write for, so true and strong. Though I loved with a passion writing for Janice in Island Rush, it was just a little more fun writing for Albany. It was also more exciting for me because there was more to the plot and more drive for me to write for some reason. Anyways, because of that and the differences I noticed, I want to know what you guys think.
I love how much you guys respond to my chapters and give me comments. So I please ask you to tell me, in detail, what you thought of this book. Be completely honest too. If you enjoyed my book, then I think I at least deserve your opinion on it. What was your favorite parts? What could I improve on? And also, its really important for me to know the differences you saw from Island Rush (if you read it) to Handcuffed. I want to know the differences (good and bad), what I have improved on in your opinion, and most importantly, what I could do better at. Also, I really would appreciate it if you guys would tell me what you think should happen, will happen, or what could happen.

I started Handcuffed at the beginning of July 2012 and ended at the end of May 2013. Though it took a while, I am proud of it and hope you guys are too.
Though Handcuffed is completed, it's just the beginning! I'm now working on book 2 and it's called Fractured (and after that, book 3). It's now posted so go check it out and I hope you like it!
Like Island Rush, Handcuffed will hold a special place in my heart. I loved the experience of writing this. It was great with the characters and I love them all and have big plans coming up for them. Not to mention, big changes in the story. With Luke and Albany stuck in that house, lying and trying to get evidence, it will bring a whole different element and can't wait to express it!
Once again, thank you my loyal and amazing fans. Can't wait to experience it all over again with you!

Anaraknakrium: The Cursid
This is my first time writing a story so any and all advice is welcome, i hope it is satisfactory and i will continue to make it better thank [email protected] The image is not mine i obtained from: https://charlottecarrendar.com/category/dead-nation-series-carrendar-writers/ It started with a whimsical thought of the gods that was all but tossed aside, never to bear fruit for all eternity awakens in the dark undisturbed. Now shall we see what a creature so abhorred and hated by the gods, where their very existence is blasphemous and chaotic may bring upon the world of Leis. Where endless races come and go with only the strongest remaining through the tides of change.
8 180The Tablets of Gitata
Set in the world of Ioga, a grain hanging from a ripe, cosmic ear of wheat afloat in the vast emptiness of the heavens, this is the defining story of an era. The main characters are all people of the Riverlands; a fertile valley filled by three parallel rivers. Full of blood, battles, feuds and mythic beasts, the tablets of Gitata make up the largest body of literary work by the people of the Riverlands, the Gigi'abid in their own tongue, meaning 'beautiful people'. The tablets tell the story of the boy-king, Gitata and his struggles for power. They also cover the tales of Ninri'a, warrior woman beyond reproach, as well as the priest Pinpirig and his unlucky journey to reclaim the stolen statue of his beloved goddess. Along the way, a slew of gods are introduced and the the machinations of the distant elemental god of mercury threaten to end the reign of the Riverlanders.
8 184The Orb Weaver Chronicles
"The Orb Weaver Chronicles contains several major and unique events that may or may not unknowingly intertwines with one another. The author of these chronicles is unknown, although some have hinted at the symbolism behind its name..." - Year unknown, location unknown 9 February 2022 Update: Welcome to the companion short story compilation of my novel trilogy The Shadow Paradigm. This compilation features prequels, sidequels and sequels to the novel's major plotline, as well as featuring a wide range of characters, new and recurring. Prior knowledge of the novel is not necessary as the Orb Weaver Chronicles' short stories are standalone. Once called The Arkesyyan Chronicles, I've deleted quite a few of its old stories. Due to the new avenue and revision, oriented toward more mystery and film-noir ambience, that I took my stories into, I've removed all aliens and overly sci-fi aspects of the whole TSP lineup, so I've updated the Orb Weaver Chronicles accordingly. I hope you enjoy them, and in time, a revised version will also be updated.

Cedric Castelbre felt the same. But now he may have no choice but to believe in gods and demons; Serkukan, the Great Red One of Etheria, has fled his own plane, seeking refuge...
