I have so many ideas, but here are a few.

Title TBD- A adventure/fantasy trilogy about a war between two magical tribes. If you have read some of my other submissions or posts you'll know about it. I adore my characters and backstories and have been working on this thing for 3 YEARS. The main character controls the four elements and is the center of a prophecy predicting the end of the war.

Premoniston- A SciFi series circling around a manic villain who is half machine. The problem is she is running most of the post-apocalyptic world with her companies and so if they kill her they could kill half the world too.

There- A sort of interpretive novel about anxiety, self worth, and depression and how easily it is to get stuck in dark places. The main character gets stuck in a world where everything is the same- and is trying to get out. She gets stuck in dangerous and strange worlds along with a group of friends and has to get back home.

I'm writing two stories-one with my friends, and one on my own that will start when I finish the current one (and I'm also editing my friends story)

The first one is about the Afterlife, which is split into Heaven and Hell. Everyone automatically goes to Hell, but they have the option to go through Purification testing, which determines if they are good enough to go to Heaven. Calista Campbell has just been approved to go to Heaven, but then something goes wrong. And also, there is someone trying to take over Heavens complex system and make everything chaos.

The second book I will write is about these three siblings who live in an abusive household and try to get out by leaving America and going to England. This one I'm nervous about, because I don't want to get it wrong.

And then my friends book is about a town called Hayward Pines, and the town is suffering, but it's kinda been hidden from the public. Now the safety of the town relies on ten teenagers.

Honestly I just love writing but I always worry that I'm doing it wrong or not writing enough pages. I also just procrastinate lol.

ooh, just remembered another one of mine. It's barely an idea, still working on it, but i think it's cool.

it's a horror/mystery about a woman who stumbles upon a wearhouse while looking for something she lost.(again, still working on the idea, don't really know how she gets there). she finds this young woman there ballet dancing in this spotlight- but she can't figure out where it's coming from. The girl can't hear her or stop dancing- and she moves too gracefully and smoothly, almost unhuman-like. The dancer's feet are bleeding and she's crying but her eyes are closed and, yeah, she can't stop or talk. The woman is super concerned but wonders if she was hallucinating. when she tries to go find the dancer again the dancer doesn't even know what she's talking about.

but the woman keep seeing these odd, creepy things around her town that no-one else remembers and she is questioning her sanity.

So mysterious and chilling! I'd be a sucker for this as a read!

Haha. I have so many.
I mostly dabble in non-magical fantasy and sci-fi.
Currently I am planning a huge sci-fi/dystopian/futuristic series of books that fit together much like the Marvel universe does. A lot of standalone books about characters, and then bringing all the characters together to save the world in the "main" series.
The "villain" is going to be an organization called ON (One Nation) that is trying to control the whole world. The US and Russia are initially the "good-guys" but it soon becomes clear that they are only out for themselves as well.
My MC's are:
- Chris and Courtney...Canadian siblings that both have been used as 'experiments' by ON. Courtney has the ability to time-travel, but she hides it for most of the series.
- Jenn... A Sergeant in the US army with leadership skills but is very closed-off and unapproachable. She shows a very down-to-earth and American mindset in contrast to the other characters.
- Nicolai... Russian bounty-hunter, assassin and spy. He can also time-travel, which is great when he's an alley, but eventually he defaults back to Mother Russia and becomes one of the villains.
- Brett... Former NASCAR driver with narcolepsy. He is very smart and his "team" is invaluable. His side-kick, Sadie, is my favorite because she is such a boss-girl.😁

I have a few other main characters, but they are all in-progress. Of course there is a whole cast of awesome side characters that I don't have time to mention (but I love so much🤗).

so it's about this girl named izzy sallow whose mother "dies" when she's a baby (her father died from a bear attack a few weeks prior), and her terrible aunt and uncle take her to live with her and she's basically their servant . on a seemingly normal day her babysitter claire(even though she's 12) takes her to the park and tells her happy birthday. izzy is very confused cause it's not her birthday, or so she thought. her aunt and uncle made up a fake birthday so she wouldn't suspect anything. but what the aunt and uncle don't know is that claire was almost like a daughter to izzy's parents 13 years ago. so claire knows everything and tells izzy that her mother is alive. izzy is confused cause she thinks her aunt and uncle are her parents. but claire gives her a diary that was her mother's, and izzy documents her story as her and claire run away to go find izzy's mom. they make up a fake name because they know the aunt and uncle will send people after them, so izzy's fake name is jane galley (galley was her mother's maiden name) and the book is called the diary of jane galley.
unfortunately this story is not finished nor will it be finished because some of my now ex friends wrote a part of the story (even though i wrote most of it) i don't want to have to speak to them if i ever decide to get it published :/

So my main one is basically a story set in this world where this entity called "The Darkness" is taking over everything with it's armies of monsters and people it's possessed. One day this kid from a village in the middle of nowhere gets fed up and decides to go and figure out how to defeat it once and for all. Along the way he meets all these new people that can help in their own unique ways and they work as a team to try and stop it.

(Sorry that summary probably sucks, I'm not great at them. I could go into more detail, but I don't want to type it all out right now.)

I want it to be a trilogy because there's so much story to tell. It's been in my brain since the pandemic and I'm finally going to sit down and actually write this b***h. I am so in love with the characters and places I've come up with but I've been too afraid to write it because I feel like no one else will want to read it. Regardless of that, I'm writing it now because it's what I want to do.

I'm writing a few.
One's on hiatus because I want to work, but it's about a society that has achieved immortality, except for one that resets their age every thirty years and doesn't remember anything after each reset. They keep said person as an experiment. One day the experiment just phases out of existence and gets spread out over multiple timelines and they have to get the experiment back.
Two, people have powers in an empire, but people who are called cripples aren't allowed, so they have to hide (people without powers do count) their existence or be found out. A resistance containing these cripples is formed, but then it gets found out. The story is about the two main characters(one of them being an Empire officer and the other being a part of the resistance. They actually manage to bond despite being as opposite as you can get in people (one is very stubborn and spirited, the other is very stoic). The story goes from there.

I never really share my ideas like that on here for the reason that if I ever get the idea off the ground, someone may have already stole my work and did something with it before I could.

This is why I remain relatively vague with my details tbh. Or as vague as possible.

I’m thinking about doing a murder mystery where it is staged to look like a husband did it but it was actually the Maid to the hotel that they are staying at because they have the master key and can get into any room.

A guy gets into an argument with his adopted son, and in trying to find shelter to storm off to, the boy takes off to the treeline just outside of town. He comes across some collapsed and ramshackle ruins, lays low there for the night, and by cause of his own curiosity, inadvertently sets free a legendary and bloodthirsty monster, a tyrant feared the world over by all that exist here...and the Hereafter. By dawn's first light, the monster is nowhere to be found, but the world is in ruins, and creatures of all twisted and warped forms run amok. It's up to those that are left, to make right what is left behind.

I can't shorten that summary more than I already have, but bam, there it is 😆

My story plots don't make sense to literally anyone except me and my mom (idk why) so here's some stuff about two of my characters (calling them B & H bc they're based on my friends)

B is the epitome of the "flirty little s**t" stereotype, and she's really good at archery. She's also part of this all-female aquatic species, which basically just means she has axolotl gills.

H's species is basically humans, but adapted to live underground, and they all have demonic-looking "horns" made out of crystals. He's very emotionless and stoic (soldier) and therefore originally doesn't like B, and then becomes enamored with her for a reason I have yet to find.

Here are a few of my story ideas (that I haven’t written down anywhere):

- A town is split up into two areas, one for humans and one for vampires. They have to stay in their respective areas at all times. The main characters are both vampires who do occasional detective work.

- A pair of vampires (who are siblings) invite some of their (human) friends to a masquerade ball at their mansion. Everything is going well- until something terrible happens.

- At a certain point in their lives, a small group of young adults gather in one place for a very important ceremony: the one in which they will finally receive their Destinies. After the ceremony is over, the celebrants go home to tell their parents what Destiny they received. The main characters receive the same one, but in order to fulfill it, they are not allowed to contact each other until it is finished.

- A group of humanoid aliens live in a society much like Earth’s and gradually become friends.

- Two teen girls- one with very strict parents and one with more relaxed parents- who go to the same school eventually become good friends and help each other out.

-A small group of teens with superpowers train under an organization in order to take down a rival organization. However, another group of teens is also training to take them down.

I’ll do my best to sum it up but be prepared for a possibly long read…

Mysteria. To summarize it, a 14 year old named Mako goes on a date with the quiet kid behind his overprotective dad’s back, almost gets killed and sets off a chain of events that end with him killing the descendant of Lucifer himself!

There are the humans and the nymphs (nymphs are kinda like demons from demon slayer or ghouls from Tokyo ghoul). There is a guild who hunts them down (even natural born friendly nymphs). Nymphs directly serving under a specific group of siblings are titled Blood Lotuses (probably gonna change the name).

For a quick list of some characters:

Mako - 14 when the manga first begins, about 16 when it really gets going, around 19 or 20 in the endgame.

Ares - 24 when you meet him, around 27 in the endgame. His sister was a guild member hunting nymphs and went M.I.A, and he’s joining the guild to search for her.

Aspen - Around the same age as Ares. Introduced early in the story but isn’t important until later. Joins the guild to escape her strict mother and to outshine her brothers.

WARNING: I know most of y’all are not gonna remember seeing this post by the time I make this part of the manga, but this section contains character spoilers for what I call the Nightingale Castle Arc.

Still here? Lemme introduce a few nymphs!

Alexandre - Was originally named Alexei but he looks really similar to Alexei from Stranger Things and didn’t wanna be accused of plagiarism so… anyways he’s about 200-250 years old, former member of the Blood Lotuses before turning good.

Jonas - About 126 or so years old when you first meet him. He was turned into a nymph by Alexandre to save him from terminal injury. They parted ways, only to meet again. Long story short they are now married with an adopted daughter :>

Claudia Nightingale - 11 year old natural born nymph. Has the ability to manipulate a cloth scarf, whether it’s stretching or multiplying it, and it’s tough like steel to cut through (think of Dali’s obi sash for a better idea). Rank 16 or the Blood Lotuses.

Sorry for making this long! :>

My work is about hope, healing, coming of age and coming out. My main publisher, JMSBooks, specializes in 'Romance for the Rest of Us'; you know who we are, LGBTQ and the rest. Most of the works there are ebooks by many talented authors. Hope and humor go together in finding new people, especially if your bio-family rejects you. You are not alone. There is also a gay pirate, Drystan the Dire, who is a little quirky as well.
