Advertisement
"I HATE YOU!" Your 8 year old daughter yelled pushing her twin brother into the wall. They began to fight, but you quickly broke it up.
"Aht Aht, go back outside with your dad." You pointed towards the garage door sternly looking at your son. "And you," you pointed towards your daughter. "Come here."
She took a deep breath sighing. It took everything in you not to snatch her lil ass up. But she never acted like this. It was obviously something serious. "What's wrong witchu lil girl?"
Her face moved from a hard to soft then to a frown. "Daddy, only pays attention to Junior when we play. He never pays attention to me even though I'm better than him in basketball." Her lip began to tremble and tears rolled down her eyes. She was such a daddy's girl.
"Awe mommy's baby come here don't cry." She ran into your arms, hugging you as she cried. "Melanie, have you tried telling him how you feel about it?"
"No." She wiped her face. "Well how bout this? After you wash up and we eat dinner just talk to him about it okay sweetie?"
She nodded her head.
"Can mommy have a kiss." You turned your head to the side and pointed at your cheek. She giggled before kissing it. "Thank you, baby."
"Now mommy?" She whispered, popping up from behind the couch. You nodded your head.
"Daddy?" Melanie walked in front of you and LaMelo and placed her hand on her hip, making you laugh. This girl had too much attitude.
"What's up baby girl?" He laughed.
"How come you pay more attention to Junior when we play basketball than me? It hurts my feelings."
His face scrunched in disdain, you could tell he was hurt he did that. It was obvious he did it unconsciously.
"I didn't know you liked basketball forreal baby." He motioned for her to come to him and she climbed into his lap. "I'm sorry. You'll forgive me?"
She nodded and he gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"And Between you and me you're better than Junior." He whispered. "I know." She winked.

As the Godking Wills
The Empire and the Church span almost the entirety of the known world, absent some pockets of lawlessness and the realms of the deceiver. They are governed as a despotic theocracy, ruled in name by the solitary and omnipotent God, Al'Shazan.In practice, Al'Shazan is bored, flighty, cruel and has little interest in ruling the Empire. Instead the Empire is run by the High Priest, Minister of the Treasury, and the Knight Commander of the inquisition. Their job is to make sense of the contradictory nonsense spewed forth by their living God while simultaneously ruling the greatest nation that the world has ever known. The entire time, they have to maintian the facade that Al'Shazan is a benevolent and loving God in order to maintain morale in the general populace. --------- The actual genre for this is more along the lines of a Fantasy Political Comedy/Drama/Thriller. It will not be 'crunchy' (minimal action, minimal descriptions of powers/abilities) but instead be focusing on world building and political maneuvering. As a warning, it is fairly dark.

Many Minded
Synopsis: Issa Pyxis, Spacer orphan and illegal heretic, graduated from living on the streets to running with a gang years ago, but now it looks like that’s all going to change. Her inheritance, more specifically who—or what—she is, is catching up with her, and on a planet with the Emperor’s inquisitors slinking around in every shadow, nowhere is safe and no one can be trusted. What will she do? A cyberpunk story about identity, loneliness, covert infiltration, evil dystopias, and much more! Features: - Cyborgs and cyberpunk galore - This is indented to be somewhat “rational” and “hard” Sci-Fi story - Original Fiction however parts of my worldbuilding are inspired by other Sci-Fi stories (duh) Rationale: The future is cool, AIs are kickass, and questions about consciousness are simultaneously existential and yet unanswered. To me, this story is a vehicle for exploring these topics, and also, I wanted to write a story where the protagonist was unafraid of themselves and where their self is more like a git-repo than a meat computer. Disclaimer: This story primarily takes place in what we’d describe as a “cyberpunk dystopia” with some extra technocracy, autocracy, and religious fervor thrown into the mix, so there will be some “grittiness” in this story. Caveat emptor. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character and other characters in my story can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way they view the world isn’t always objective truth (if such a thing even exists) nor do their views and opinions necessarily reflect the views of me, the author. Cover art by me! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
