Marino, The Cortez and the LeFleur:
The International Highschool Library...a place where students can easily do research and study for their classes…
In that Library, a young female student is always reading in the corner...This girl has bright red hair like an apple and bright green eyes…
This girl’s name is Leticia Marino and she is considered the most intelligent student in the school...she is even smarter than Aleister or Uriel combined…
There are rumors that she has read all 5000 books from the library...but because of that...she is really antisocial...she only likes to live on the last floor of the library…
A couple of students begin to speak with each other; “Did you hear that students are heading to Mexico?”
“Yeah...that hottie, Uriel is going...I heard that the Student Council is in charge of that...and also…”
(BBBOOOMMM)
The girls hear a book fall,they turn around and see Leticia picking up the book. Leticia notices the girls looking at her. She immediately panics and runs away to the top floor.
“Wasn’t she that weirdo?”
“Yeah...I can’t believe she is going and not us...like, that’s so uncool…”
“Ha..ha...ha…” Leticia runs upstairs and heads to the office located at the end of the first floor. She immediately enters the room and closes the door. She turns on the light, the room is filled with books.
Leticia takes a deep breath and begins to walk to her desk, she helps the librarian. She sits on her desk; “Oh...that was scary, I hate going there...why was I chosen to go? Why? I don’t think I can take the pressure...why can’t I live here, with these books that don’t bully me...I wish I can stay here forever…”

Paternum: A Superhero Story
When Quinn finds an experimental superpower-granting costume in their parents’ attic, they didn’t expect to be drawn into a web of superhuman intrigue, but their discovery serves as the catalyst for that conspiracy to slowly unravel. At it’s heart, Paternum is an extended coming-of-age story for the main character as they become a superhero, in a world with more reasonable stakes and less powerful heroes than many superheroic worlds. Themes include what art means to different people, and what it means to be a patron, whether as a sponsor, a parent, or a supporter. I consider Paternum‘s primary influences to be the various versions of Spider-Man, J. C. McCrae’s own superhero story Worm, and Drew Hayes’ story SuperPowereds. I hope that fans of such stories can find something to enjoy in mine as well. Paternum is primarily hosted on my website (thevoidwrites.com) where it updates weekly in groups of scenes totalling approximately 2000 words. Here on Royal Road, it will update once daily with one scene at a time, but only after each act is completed on the home site - the next batch of updates is scheduled to begin on February 5th. There is a discord channel for discussion (discordapp.com/invite/QFMM6yA), and you can vote for Paternum on topwebfiction (topwebfiction.com/vote.php?for=paternum) as well. Finally, you can buy the first book of Paternum, The Swift Uplifting Rush, in a couple different ways - as an ebook through Amazon, or directly from me for a discounted price, or as a physical paperback from Amazon. Buying the book will give you access to Drawing Hands, an exclusive arc that won't ever be published on either my site or Royal Road.

How to Make a Wand
When mage Magdala Gallus gets suspended from Magisterium for making explosives instead of focusing her rare alchemical skills on more productive pursuits, her mother ships her off to her uncle, the absent-minded but brilliant Lord Kalan, as punishment. Hard at work creating an instrument capable of converting magic, her uncle soon draws Magdala into his quest for a dragon scale—the only thing that can prove his theory that magic is the same for everyone. However, as Magdala, Lord Kalan, and Lord Kalan’s unusual apprentice, Dwayne, soon realize, it’s an impossible mission. With bandits populating the region where the dangerous creatures live and a pair of mercenaries who aren’t who they seem, it will take more than their magic to find and kill a dragon . . . and stay alive.
