When Josie spots one of the cutest guys she's ever laid eyes on she immediately wants him to notice her. The only problem is that she's reserved when it comes to new people.
But since it's the day after New Year's Eve, she quickly makes it a resolution - she will talk with him before the year ends.
It takes her 364 days to follow through with the promise but she's overwhelmed with excitement once she does, because it appears he's had his eyes on her too.

At first he didn't glance up when she stopped next to his table, finally able to take a closer peek at his computer screen. An entire page filled with simple text, paragraphs brimming with tiny words. Words she was too nervous to make any sense of in that moment. Words she desperately wished would be coming from her mouth.
It was then she noticed he had his earbuds in, the faint sound of music pouring out from them. She contemplated turning around and go back, throw the note away and never return. But like he was able to sense her hesitation, his head snapped up and their eyes met for the first time in 364 days.
A small gasp fell from her lips, her tongue felt twisted as she opened and closed her mouth, fighting to come up with something decent to say. Anything would do by now, judging from his questioning stare.
At least he didn't look aghast at the sight of her.
And then he smiled. He smiled so brightly that she was sure the snow outside would melt away if it caught a glimpse of it.
Josie nervously thumbed her note before hurriedly thrusting it towards him. "Hi, here. It's my number, in case you couldn't figure that out. Which you probably would have."

The boy dipped his eyes down to the note before looking back up at her again, starting to pull the earphones out. "What?"
His deep voice sent a pleasant shiver down the length of her spine but unfortunately she was too stressed to appreciate it. She let the note drop on the keyboard of his laptop and then she abruptly turned, making a beeline towards the entrance without repeating her clumsy words. Without turning around to see if he was shaking his head at the scatterbrained girl who had approached him with red cheeks and a rigid posture.

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!

Against the Heaven's Will
Synopsis: Many worlds, realms, and universes no longer bathe in the light of the will. The darkness has corrupted them. The champion of the spark, a mere child is the only one capable of changing the fate of all living beings. As a wielder of the spark, the heavens did not tolerate him. Many heart-wrenching events befell the child from the moment he was born, even the death of his beloved. The heavens were truly unmerciful to him. This child’s name is Chen Gudan, and this is his story of love, betrayal, and revenge as he traverses his world and many others to resurrect his beloved, while juggling the fate of all... "If the heavens prevent me from resurrecting her, I will go against its will!" Notice 1: I took a bit time away from this novel to build a webpage for it. Starting from today (June 14, 2021), I will try to update every week with a new chapter (as I have finished the site). The cover is from: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fire_in_darkness_-_LOHDI.JPG No copyright infringement was intended from the use of this cover. If the original owner of the picture wants me to take it down, please message me and I will do so, as quickly as possible. Notice 2: This is my first novel, it would be great if you guys can give me feedback (in the form of comments) as it progresses, especially in the first few chapters. I am planning to make this novel at least a few hundred chapters long. Otherwise, thank you for reading my novel. Notice 3: This is my plan for this book: Chapter 1 to 6 are the backstory of the main character before and when he was born. Chapter 7 to 12 are the main character's early years. Chapter 12 and beyond is when the story starts.
