My free-verse entry for the 2026 poetry anthology. Lately it seems that what seems like being a choice, really isn’t. Are we really free to decide any aspects of our own lives?

Shawn slips, falls, and dies, but his mind is transferred to himself in an alternative universe. The humans in this universe are far in advance of what he knew. Merged with an AI system, Shawn must explore this seemingly utopian world as he goes off to college only to discover a dystopian reality and military dictatorship. He was given a system that allows him certain skills or abilities and lets him improve those the more he uses the system, similar to a video game; some involve sex. Will he be able to level up fast enough to save himself, his new friends, and potentially the human race? Or, could the stakes be even higher than that?

The past has a way of catching up with you and it can turn your life upside down. When you haven't faced things completely, but hover in between, it is easy to fall into a complex of lies and half truths.

You may think you know what you want, but life has a habit of throwing a curve ball. Will Alex and Matty come through unscathed or will events prove to be overwhelming?

Whatever the outcome there will always be a sense of doubt.

Hi, I’m Skylar. I’m sixteen, gay, and trapped in a high school satire where every internet trope you’ve ever read shows up with glitter and trauma. I’ve got a closeted jock crush, a cheerleader nemesis who smells like body spray and hate, and a best friend who hands out condoms like Tic Tacs. This story has locker room angst, hallway drama, and possibly a car accident that isn’t that serious but still ruins everything. It’s messy, dramatic, and honestly? I wouldn’t have it any other way.

This is a collaboration with Aero1107.

John asked if he could use my main characters from "A Ticklish Thriller" in his story, "My Ticklish Grandsons," and create a backstory for Mikey and his family. I was extremely flattered and eagerly accepted and was even more surprised when he asked if I'd work with him on developing his story. Then that started an idea for a stand alone sequel to Thriller using his characters The Giovanni Clan which became "The Ticklish Brotherhood."

AJ's hunt for hot dads goes sideways when he's caught filming a DILF in aisle 4. Dragged into security, he expects the police but faces a beefy guard and a humiliating ultimatum instead. The city boy learns local justice is rough. The camera is rolling, and the only way out is on his knees.

Thrust into a new reality, Arlo Green is once again tasked with recovering an artefact of immense power for his lich overlord. With a new cast of friends and enemies, and the heartbreak of losing his old party, will Arlo be able to complete his mission?

A 34-year-old straight sales rep moves to Hamburg, joins a top amateur handball team, and finds way more than he bargained for: sweaty games, intense locker-room vibes, and a captain who knows exactly how to shake up his world.

After their victory over Orinovo, Lys-Akkaria decides to take back territory that used to be theirs. With the combined forces of a lightweaver and shadowforger, Orinovo doesn't stand a chance.

In spite of their newfound advantage, Ainreth finds himself with doubts about how far this is going. Things get more complicated when they discover a Orinovan conspiracy. With a new threat, it becomes clear they must march on Orinovo's capital to end it.

Ain's doubts lead to him and Fennrin arguing more and more with each day, and things only escalate from bad to worse when Daryan Varilik gets involved with his own hidden agenda.
