《The Sleeping Immortal》Chapter 0 - The Start Of It All

"Yyaaawwwnnn..."
With a stretch I wake up to the cold 4 am breeze. I notice my rooms completely black except for the glowing light of my desktop monitor. Half stumbling and half rolling out of bed I crawl to my stairs. Like a hungover baby, I navigate down the stairs and make my way to the kitchen. Arriving I pop my head out through the half-opened window and gaze upon the half-baked sunrise.
Turning my head away I drag myself over to the fridge to prepare my breakfast when suddenly a wet sound rings in my ears it was like some crossbreed of a sneeze and a fart.
My vision turned completely white and then as if to mock my senses it turned pitch black. It was that wonderful warm darkness of sleep I had come to enjoy.
'I could just fall to sleep here.' I thought as my soul curled into a ball.
Just before I could drift off though I heard a thunderously booming voice that pierced my ears and snatched me from my sleep.
"FIEND YUKI!!! MY MOST GRACIOUS FRIEND!!! I'M SO SORRY!!!" The voice boomed.
My soul opened an irritated eye at the obnoxious thing that had awoken me from my sleep.
"You should be sorry you wretch! You woke me from my sleep!" I yelled at it.
"I'M TERRIBLY SORRY FOR WAKING YOU, MY FRIEND!!!" The voice boomed again.
My soul shrunk away in anger from this overbearing and loud imbecile.
I sigh and try to forgive this guy for waking me up. I don't even know him, do I? WAIT! Who is this guy watching me sleep?
"I'm over it dude, but could you tell me who exactly you are and why your lurking over my bed?" I say in a calm voice as not to provoke the unknown and possibly unstable man watching me sleep.

"YES! I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED MORTAL! FOR I AM YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBOURHOOD GOD!!!" The voice yelled.
What a drag...I just want to sleep but instead, this weirdo with a God complex is probably going to kill me.
"HAHA MORTAL YOU ARE VERY FUNNY. HOWEVER, I'VE ALREADY KILLED YOU!" The voice announced.
Wow, this dude even reads minds! It's almost worth waking up for!
"YES! RIGHT YOU ARE MORTAL FRIEND! I, THE MOST POWERFUL BEING IN THE UNIVERSE, KILLED YOU BY MISTAKE!" God yelled.
If I'm dead and your God, then answer me one thing.
"SURE!" God said excited for the challenge.
Boobs or Butts?
God lent over to my soul and whispered something into my ear.
My face lit up with an enlightened shine of realization.
Yup your God alright.
"DO NOT TELL ANYONE WHAT I HAVE TOLD YOU TODAY MORTAL!" God said in an embarrassed shout.
What's in it for me?
"MORTAL YOU ARE TESTING MY PATIENCE. HOWEVER IN RETURN FOR KILLING YOU AND YOUR SILENCE I WILL ALLOW YOU TO REINCARNATE IN A FANTASY WORLD LIKE IN ONE OF YOUR MANY DREAMS." God loudly said.
Through in some cheats and you got a deal.
"FINE. WHAT DO YOU WANT MORTAL?" God conceded.
I want to be able to sleep whenever I want uninterpreted! And whilst you're at it throw in one of those video game systems that makes me stronger when I sleep.
And before I could ask for any more cool shit God must have knocked me unconscious.

The Apocalyptic Game - A LitRPG
20 years ago, on an ordinary day, the world was turned into a game in which human beings were the players. Ever since then, humanity fought against the endless swarms of the NPCs, as well as against each other. Yet in the end, it was all meaningless. The pain. The suffering. The victories and the defeats. This game turned out to be nothing more than a joke, and the last of mankind was mercilessly purged. Shaw was a survivor. She was a player. She was a Warrior. Most importantly, she was the last human on Earth to die. Yet, death wouldn't be the end for her. Instead, she was given a second chance. She was brought back to ten minutes before the game started with all the memories of her 20 years of combat, and this time, she would win. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Blue Hills
Nothing had ever felt quite right for Alexander Adamson. He'd worked his way up to a job he could tolerate, a few casual friends, and even a nice little apartment that he could call his own, though it really wasn't. The problem was that none of it was satisfying. It was as though he were going through the motions of a life, rather than having one of his own. Of course, it didn't exactly feel right when he woke up in a strange bed in the middle of nowhere. Nor when he was told that he was now the proud owner and operator of a local farm. A farm that had belonged to a late uncle he'd never known. But with the first train out of town a full 'season' away, he had plenty of time to get used to the idea. Plenty of time, perhaps, to even get to like the strange little town of Blue Hills. I have a discord now. Marvel at my ability to somehow still be antisocial on the other side of a screen! Back from hiatus along with my other fiction. Chapters are on a Thurs/Sun schedule until book 3 of that fiction is completed, at which point I'll be updating this daily. At which point uh.... I dunno what I'm going to do.

Sherds
Linus falls into another world, arriving on an archipelago. This is a story about exploration, and archaeology is a major theme! Studying history and pre-history is a favorite of mine, so this is a project using my research to build a world. One of the magic systems has rpg inspired elements, but this isn't a litrpg at its core. I'm an art student and haven't written much, but I like telling stories. This is largely just for fun, my own spin on the RR other world formula. (Placeholder cover is from the Palazzo Massimo in Rome)

Touching Stories Of The Sahaba (ra) ..
Stories have always been a great and powerful way to Learn, Understand & Motivate our Imaan (Faith). So why not learn and experience some of the Best Stories of Islam to inspire and understand the importance of our lives...One of the ideas that made me compile this book was that Muslim parents while going to bed at night, instead of telling myth and fables to their children, may narrate to them such real and true stories of the golden age of Islam that will create in them an Islamic spirit of love and esteem for sahabah, and thereby improve their Imaan..These stories are taken from various websites, lectures and books and are well researched..These stories are not intended as biographies, but rather to provide a glimpse of the main incidents of each companion's life.
