Broken Stone

"Ruiz Gravenor longs to destroy the Kingdom of Lygos, to finally revenge himself on the imperialist regime that subjugates his homeland, the island of Fieroe. In a trick of fate, he is chosen by the eldritch god hibernating beneath the island and bestowed with otherworldly powers. As Ruiz travels Lygos, he uses his talents to incite resistance. Still, he is but one man with many enemies 一 including the Lygian Saint-King’s right-hand man, Gideon Minmose.Despite their animosity, both are far from home, haunted by traumatic memories. And Gideon, burdened with responsibility, is also chosen by a god. For all that Ruiz and Gideon appear as enemies, they have forged a secret partnership to eliminate Lygos’ reign. When forgotten rituals to revive the ancient gods are suddenly unearthed, they must risk everything for a chance at victory. With the gods’ rebirth comes the promise of freedom, but failure means certain death. What’s more, the gods are old and unknowable, and meddling with them could tear reality apart."

Ex Nihilo

Jack Gany is a con artist in the airship city of Cambria, striving to make his way from the deepest mechanical innards to supplant himself in the aristocratic heights. When he picks up a risky gig--exposing a secret society--he's forced to ask for help from a man he never thought he'd see again; the Jurisproctor Cassim Elias. For his own part, Cassim reluctantly needs Jack's help too, to dispel a blackmailer who would expose him for his sexuality. Without acknowledging their history, surely they can do each other just one little favor, right?But in a city that has escaped apocalypse and now clings to life in the atmosphere of an alien planet, nothing is ever so easy. Cambrian Textual law--what we might recognize as Shakespeare's plays, but which society has forgotten as such--is in imminent danger of being used for all the wrong purposes. As Jack and Cassim uncover conspiracies, perhaps reconciling themselves to each other will not seem like such a massive feat compared to besting a group of utopian cultists who would love nothing more than to see them dead. And as Jack knows--the best way to win is to change the rules.EX NIHILO is:
-- Currently in its second draft
-- Adult sci-fi
-- With steampunk elements
-- Significant mlm plot (trans guy and cis guy)
-- Kind of a Yeshiva romance
-- With a lot of political/legal intrigue and too many Shakespeare references!
I hope to finish this version soon and share with betas :)

The King of All Birds

At the end of an era, everything changes. For years, the city-state of Onoroi has been falling into decline--and while the monarchical government loses power, the gangs, street-lords and ne'erdowells of the city rise to take its place. There must be a new ruler, in accordance with the ancient gods of the land, but it seems like the only people equipped to take up the mantle of power are the lowest and the cruellest that society has to offer.Enter Emil Lovzansky: an ex-ballet dancer turned museum curator, alienated from others because of his heritage and his anxiety. When he is approached by one of Onoroi's most notorious gangsters, the last thing he expects is to be told that he will be Onoroi's next ruler. And yet Nua Tamora, the spymaster of the Trimvir gang, adamantly seeks to elevate him to the highest heights, claiming to have seen a vision of a beautiful future where Emil ascends the throne and rights Onoroi's many wrongs. Hopeful and desperate, believing himself better than his competition, Emil accepts Nua's offer and follows their lead. In the end, will his hope be enough? Or will power corrupt him like it has everything else in Onoroi, a city known as "the cesspit of mankind?"THE KING OF ALL BIRDS is:
-- Currently being revised! In its third draft.
-- A grimdark urban fantasy with historical flavor
-- With romantic elements of various sorts, no cishet characters
-- And a shit ton of lore and mythology

Red River Valley

"When reclusive town oddball and school-teacher Laurence Ezendam is fetched to examine a corpse, the last thing he expects to find is a very-much-alive vampire and train-robber. Brash, confident Victor Figueroa is equally surprised to learn his rescuer is a demon-possessed mad scientist on a quest for immortality. In the prairie town of Revenant, where neither man feels quite at-home, their secrets could destroy them… but the irresistible pull of desire between them makes it impossible to hide their pasts.
Both Victor and Laurence have their enemies: hired guns, an undead mob family, and a narcissistic industrialist, just to name a few. When forces convene to threaten them and the town they’ve come to care about, the pair must take a stand, or they’ll lose their newfound love—and the oil-slick tides of progress will swallow Revenant whole." [Description taken from my query letter!]RED RIVER VALLEY is:
-- Currently being revised, in its second draft
-- A Western Paranormal Romance novella
-- Very gratuitously horny! But still romantic!
-- There are demons! Vampires! A gunfight on a train!

The Abattoir of Days

On a day like any other in the war-torn land of Kiir, a host of dismembered corpses is unearthed by a child hunting for oysters. In a stroke of fate, the Scribe Elis Khlrot had been sent there by her superiors just in time to see it happen. Together with a pair of unlikely allies--the stoic, skeptical private investigator Roman and the charming, enigmatic actor Valentin Revin--Elis may be the only person who can find the murderer.There are too many forces working against her; both the Saerumite and Vircinean armies, who have fought over Kiir for going on two decades, plus the real murderer, and her own training, her instinct to keep her head down and simply do her duty. But when authorities capture the highwayman Arkady Widakov and begin the proceedings to execute him, Elis knows she cannot sit idly by--the man is innocent. Addressing the Saerumite head of state, Elis must record and share the true story of the murders before another life is added to the killer's count. She must become a true Historian: she must invent the truth, and guard it at any cost.[No cover artwork/moodboards yet! But I'm working on getting commissions in the near future.]THE ABATTOIR OF DAYS is:
-- Currently being re-drafted, around 50% done.
-- An Adult fantasy with True Crime vibes
-- Historical Noir
-- With a central poly relationship, various other LGBT characters
-- A lot of epistolary elements, compiled texts, so-forth
I hope to finish this version soon and share with betas :)

Welcome to the velvet room

Haha jk, this is the page for just random ideas/less-than half finished books that I still want to keep organized.

Reverb

REVERB is a contemporary mlm romance novella where the MCs are in an emo band. Lots of drama about unrequited love and a very kitschy vibe! I wrote like half of it last time, I need to go back and re-outline it!

Where We Began

WHERE WE BEGAN is a contemporary mlm romance novella with some elements of magical realism. Recent college grads and highschool besties Drew and Ertan decide that what they need to remember their zest for life is a whistle-stop tour of all their favorite places (read: a way to get out of the house) but along the way they'll have to literally overcome the manifestations of their worst fears. And fall in love or whatever. No full draft yet, but someday!

Under Heaven / First in Fame

UNDER HEAVEN / FIRST IN FAME is a retelling of Sir. Gawain and the Green Knight, but more by the way of like... Neil Gaiman or something. I've written bits of it a couple times but I don't have a full draft yet.
