Keeping It Fluid


The Sequel to “Stuck in the Middle


The morning after her adoption, Emily slowly settles into the reality of her new family. A quiet breakfast, a playful snow day, and moments of warmth remind her that home isn’t just a place—it’s the people who make it feel like one.

End of ‘The Girl with a Curl
On the day I left to go home for the holiday, I packed my bag and looked at the one I had done for my wall. It was next to the catalogue picture I had bought, and was a picture of Gloria, Judith, me, Monica, and Sally, as I remembered us on the first day that I had told anyone my secret. We were all in our jogging outfits, in the park, with me in the middle. I had straight hair and no make-up, but I still looked like a tomboy. That day was the first day on the journey that had brought me here. They do say that every journey begins with the first step, and that was the day that I had taken a leap of faith, on the way to becoming a ‘Girl with a Curl’.

Eidolon Nexus: The Shattered Realm: Chapter 26

A group of people wake up in a video game world and are forced to work together to survive and find out how to escape.

“I should’ve gone back home when I had the chance.”

Chapter 25 recap

Suddenly, a tendril shoots out faster than I can react, wrapping around my waist and yanking me off the sled. The ground slams into me hard, knocking the wind out of my lungs as the world spins violently.

Hatchlings Remorse 01

Preamble - I have now completely re-written all of the works I had worked with Sudowrite on. I no longer use it as a writing tool, only a story organizing tool. With my left hand healed I can now type again properly so I'll be able to write a lot easier. I am also returning to the online world but have permablocked where I got hated on for my prior writing of this. I will never author there ever again, and won't even lurk for their content. Their user base proved to be very toxic and the admins didn't care when authors were being harassed by readers. The reviewers were annoying but it was the DM's there that really got me.

Dollar Runaways

Chapters 15 and 16 of 26
by Tiffany Shar

Edited by Carla Ann

 

Megan Franchino knows her chance for escape is now or never. With school finally out for her son Antonio, and her abusive husband going out of town she just might get far enough away before he starts looking for them. If they fail to get away, Megan knows she will not live to regret trying. There is no choice though, their recent injuries prove that if they stay one or both of them will eventually die from the beatings.

There is only one place she might feel safe to go, but will she be welcome there? Can she even get there? How long can she stay? What then? And if her husband's family does catch up to them, is there any way to keep Tony safe?

So here we are again. Words of advice; don't forget which chapters you've uploaded in your own stories - if there is a server crash, you can anger Erin (sorry again Erin! Please don't use the whip again!)

So we come to boot camp; I'll be honest, never been. If any of my boot camp as written (assuming the differences between a 'normal' as opposed to a summoner boot camp aren't what you focus on) please let me know. I welcome realism on this subject.

Enjoy.

The Hyperverse Gazetteer

The Hyperverse is a continually expanding universe where superheroes, and villains exist. Given the number of different characters, locations, and powers present in this world there is a lot of information. Brianna Eketta has generously put a lot of time and effort into compiling all that information into a single source for both the author(s) and readers.

This database will be updated and expanded as the universe grows and the story lines all come together.
