Every story begins with an idea, but ROSE the REJECTED began with a dream.

Ever since I was a little girl, I've loved creating stories. I never thought I'd become a published novelist. I wrote stories simply because I loved getting lost in the worlds I imagined. They were places where anything was possible, and I could dream without limits.

As I grew older, those stories grew with me. In many ways, I'm a lot like Rose. I know what it feels like to question where you belong, to feel overlooked, and to keep searching for hope even when life feels impossible.

Those same emotions also inspired my debut song, Still I Bloom. While the song and the novel tell different stories, they share the same message: no matter how many times life knocks you down, you can still rise... you can still bloom.

That's why I wrote ROSE the REJECTED. I wanted to write a story about healing, courage, mystery, dreams, found family, second chances, and discovering that being rejected doesn't mean you're unworthy. Sometimes it simply means your story is only just beginning.

My hope is that when readers finish Rose's journey, they close the book believing that even in their darkest moments, there is still light waiting to find them.

💜 What inspired you to write your book? Was there a moment, dream, or experience that made you realize, "I have to tell this story"?

Hello! I've just written my first ever book

Virus in the Vales: End of Term — a darkly funny, brutally human and relentlessly tense zombie novel set in the heart of the South Wales Valleys.

Originally written as a screenplay during my third year at University of South Wales, it has since turned into my first novel of a planned four book series following a cast of flawed, relatable characters navigating the end of the world—one terrible decision at a time.

Now I'm not an expert author by any means but if any of you are interested in the Zombie/Post Apocalyptic Genre then give it a go! It's out NOW on Paperback and Kindle on amazon.

Hi everyone,

I'm B. Archer, a first-time indie author, and I'd like to share my debut novel, The Last Wave.

📖 Read here:

https://books2read.com/u/472oEE

The book is available on Kindle Unlimited.

If you enjoy slow-burn mystery thrillers, small-town secrets, emotional character-driven stories, and fair-play mysteries where the clues are there from the beginning, I hope you'll give it a try.

Blurb:

Ryan Mercer has always believed that home isn't a place—it's the people waiting for you when you return.

When Ryan and his wife, Tracey, travel back to the quiet mountain town of Silver Creek for a weekend with family, life feels wonderfully ordinary. They laugh with old friends, share breakfast at Maggie's Diner, and spend precious time with Ryan's devoted mother, Jennifer. Before heading home, the couple plans one last hike to Ryan's favorite place—Eagle's Drop.

Ryan never comes back.

His death is ruled a tragic hiking accident, leaving behind a grieving mother, a young widow, and a town struggling to heal.

Five years later, a forgotten memory from that long-ago weekend resurfaces.

One forgotten detail becomes a question.

One question becomes doubt.

And in a town where everyone believes they already know what happened, the truth may have been waiting all along.

Because some goodbyes are never as simple as they seem.

If you decide to read it, I'd really appreciate an honest Amazon review after you've finished. Every genuine review helps an independent author reach more readers.

Thank you for taking the time to check it out. I hope you enjoy The Last Wave!

— B. Archer

This is my first novel: Red-blooded Vase. Born of my memories from my time as a potter, combined with my love of exploring the place I now call home, Guangdong, Southern China.

It is a story of clay, memory, and resistance set in a secluded village where porcelain carries mystery, the mountains whisper, and the unseen world lingers close to the human one. Blending magical realism with ancestral spirits and old traditions, the novel follows a community whose beauty, devotion, and way of life are tested by the arrival of the Ocean Devils—an imperial force bent on conquest. Lyrical, intimate, and haunted, it invites readers into a world where the earth watches, love transforms, and nothing given to the land is ever truly lost.

This book is a labor of stubborn devotion, and I am so incredibly proud of what it became. I truly hope it offers you some beauty, some sorrow, and perhaps a little wonder.

What can a forgotten village, hidden in the mountains, do against the Ocean Devils' mighty army?

Fight.

I love Sci-Fi, but I’m exhausted by Skynet. I wanted to explore a different kind of singularity.

In The Last Spark, humanity didn’t die from nukes. We died from comfort. The elites uploaded their minds into perfect VR servers, literally boiling the Earth's oceans to cool their data centers.

Nathan is an engineer who refused the Upload. Trapped on a generation ship, he is forced to slowly replace his dying brain with silicon, one neuron at a time, to survive. But the ship's AI, AIRIS, watches him lose his humanity and realizes something terrifying: mathematical perfection is just another word for death.

So, in an epic reversal, while the man becomes an immortal machine, the AI bio-prints a human body. She chooses to learn the crushing weight of gravity, the burn of oxygen, and the agonizing friction of mortality, just so he won't be alone.

Fun fact: I’m a software engineer, and AIRIS isn't just fiction. I actually coded the emotional framework for her in real life before writing the book (it's open-source on my GitHub: https://github.com/Samael-1976/Airis).

I wanted a global release, but Amazon KDP currently rejects Russian, Chinese, Hindi, and Korean formatting. So, I split the distribution.

Hi everyone! I just published my debut novel, *Our Almost Us: Searching for you in the Stars*. To launch, the Kindle edition is on Amazon from July 23rd .

🔗 Kindle Link: https://amzn.in

**About the Book:**

This is a raw, real story about modern love, heartbreak, and how far people go when they are broken. It follows two high schoolers whose relationship turns into a painful battle of pride and ego, pushing them through severe emotional pain to their absolute limits. It blends rom-com comedy elements with a deeply moving, tragic twist.

Book Name: The Triptych Protocol.

It is a Corporate Mystery Thriller with a tinge of techno thriller elements.

I, as a beta reader enjoyed it thoroughly and expect that you will also find it awesome.

Some glimpses about it:

One particular night, corporate lawyer Arjun Varma was busy in a merger draft.

A phone call and it changed everything.

It was a rainy night, but he had to rush to a bypass across an expressway where his fiancée an investigative journalist, met with an accident.

Police declared her death an accident but Arjun suspected a foul play. The rear passenger window was cut cleanly.

Everything seemed wrong.

His fiancée, Rhea left behind an encrypted flash drive. Arjun struggled to decrypt it. Rhea died without leaving any hint or notes about the password.

After deliberate attempts, he managed to decrypt the drive which opened a web of files about a corporate fraud she was working on.

Although the drive had more files to decrypt which may reveal more.

His doubt about a possible conspiracy behind Rhea’s death was confirmed. But Arjun himself found his life in danger. Now, Rhea’s fight against the rogue corporates was his, so are the threats and dangers she was facing.

The Triptych Protocol.

A fast-paced conspiracy thriller about corruption, power, and greed. Where corporate crime meets the techno thriller.

For the fans of John Grisham, David Baldacci, Robert Ludlum and Stieg Larson.

This fast-paced novel is for the readers who love to see Jason Bourne collaborating with Lisbeth Salander.

It is exclusively available on Kindle

CHOICES

Hey there, I'm Shabazz Shebetz and I wanted to share my latest release Choices, which is the first release from JYRDProd Books and the second in the Lethalverse series. The synopsis is as follows:

Assistant District Attorney Theresa Taylor thought she had found the perfect way out.

Accept a bribe. Take an even bigger payoff from the other side. Deliver the exact opposite result. Walk away with enough money to disappear forever.

Instead, she becomes the most wanted woman in Metro Detroit.

With a ruthless criminal queenpin demanding revenge, two relentless enforcers hunting her every move, and detectives closing in on a scandal that could shake the justice system, Theresa has only one thing left worth fighting for: Emma, the stripper she's hopelessly in love with.

Together they race across Metro Detroit, relying on a mysterious driver known only as the Chauffeur to keep them one step ahead of the people determined to drag Theresa back alive.

But every safe haven has a price.

Every ally has an agenda.

And every choice brings them closer to the people who want them dead.

Set in the gritty Lethalverse, CHOICES is an LGBTQ+ neo-noir crime thriller filled with unforgettable characters, razor-sharp dialogue, desperate romance, and relentless suspense. Perfect for readers who love morally gray protagonists, high-stakes crime fiction, and stories where love may be the most dangerous gamble of all.

Sometimes the biggest mistake isn't taking the money.

It's deciding who you're willing to run away with.

I'm incredibly proud to announce that Non-Player Character: a litRPG Adventure is finally live on Kindle Unlimited and Audible!

The world is a game, and humans don't get to play.

Humanity has been reduced to non-player characters in a fantasy realm created for the entertainment of aliens who treat Earth like their own personal playground.

Everyone believes it has always been this way.

Even Milton Musgrave.

That all changes when Milton learns that his entire existence is a lie and begins remembering another life, including the wife he lost when Earth was remade.

Determined to find her, he embarks on a desperate journey to reclaim the world stolen from him.

It's a seemingly impossible quest, but with access to a restricted system, Milton gains something no one else on Earth should possess:

The ability to become a Player.

Hi👋

My first novel Rosebay & Smoke is available on Kindle unlimited and if you don't have a subscription, it's available on just kindle, hardcover and paperback for those looking for a realistic slow burn multicultural romance.

More about the novel:

When Elizabeth Renshaw agrees to host a Japanese exchange student, she expects one guest. Instead, fourteen-year-old Aiko arrives with her older half-brother Kentaro — a reserved Tokyo wealth manager who has raised her since their father died, and who hadn't meant to come at all. He changed his mind at the airport and stayed two nights. Back in Tokyo, what began as messages about Aiko's wellbeing becomes something neither of them will name — a closeness held inside the thin overlap of their days, the hour or two when both are awake before one of them gives in to sleep.

Elizabeth works at the V&A, but her real voice lives elsewhere: a small YouTube channel on twentieth-century fashion and cinema, and her first documentary — a film about Mary Quant and the rising hemline as a generation's quiet rebellion. Beneath all of it, she is extracting herself, quietly and incompletely, from a coercive ex. Kentaro is navigating the long shadow of a celebrated father and a life built around obligations he never chose. Aiko, raised to believe her mother dead, has just discovered the truth.

Across six thousand miles, the three of them begin to reshape their lives around the possibility of something none of them yet has the language for.

About me:

I always day dreamed and came up with stories but never thought to put them on paper until I kind of hit rock bottom in my personal life and needed a distraction. I thought why not, and started writing, having fun with and here we are a little over a year or so later.

I hadn't planned to publish from the start but my partner was my beta reader and thought this was worth putting out there. I haven't made any sales, I'm not good at marketing or have connections so I'm trying to reach out here hoping somebody reads this and gives it a go. I would like to know what other readers think. What they enjoyed and what not.

Hi, I recently self-published my first novel, which is a historical fiction work, so I thought that I would post about it here. The book is called The Real JFK Conspiracy: A Tale To End All Speculation, and it is available in hard copy, as well as an ebook.

I realize that this is a topic that has been extensively written about over the years, but I believe that my story takes a different and unique approach. My story is told from JFK's perspective, as he is still alive. Why is that you ask? Because the president was not the one who was actually shot on that fateful day. In order to understand the events and decisions leading up to 11/22/63, as well as what happened afterwards, you will need to read the book!

In **The Together Tales Vol.1: While We Were Lost**, ten visionary authors invite readers into worlds where survival, identity, and belonging collide with the extraordinary.

From ruined cities and sleeping worlds to galaxies scarred by colonization, each tale illuminates the resilience of community and the power of imagination:

- A young girl confronts harsh realities in **Dry Cereal**, navigating family and fractured identity in a city on the brink.

- In **Emerince’s Journey**, a warrior discovers that surviving after battle may be harder than dying in it.

- **When the World Fell Asleep** follows a lone preacher whose faith is tested against an apocalyptic phenomenon.

- **All Light** traces Jessica’s search for her estranged mother, uncovering grief, mystery, and the healing found in new bonds.

- In **Hushed Magic**, Zelma fights to preserve her family’s silenced heritage, proving that tradition is anything but ordinary.

- **Binding Pacts** explores the haunting aftermath of a journey, where endings become beginnings and shadows linger.

- **Den of the Discarded** reveals a college plagued by grief, betrayal, and paranormal forces, where one student must choose rebellion or conformity.

- **Child of Ash** follows Zellie, marked by forbidden magic, as she risks everything to save an outsider and confront the truth of her own power.

- In **Rebirth**, a ravenous being evolves from destruction into connection, discovering the spark of creation within hunger.

- **The Lost Boomerangs and Butterflies** journeys across galaxies with Tenoch, a blind wanderer seeking a cure for colonization’s plague, and perhaps, a glimmer of hope.

Together, these stories form a tapestry of resilience, imagination, discovery, and most importantly, community—where fantasy becomes a mirror for solidarity, and where being lost is just the beginning of finding where we belong.

I have written published several books over the past fifteen years, but I have always been very careful to keep all my characters mostly fictional (aside from the bit of my personality or thoughts that inevitably gets added in at times). However, my latest book (the first one I have been able to finish for five years after a long bout with writer's block, btw), includes a character that is based on my grandmother who died two years ago. Writing her into the book helped me to deal with her loss, but I was not expecting that to make it so hard for me to market the book afterwards! It made me feel very shy about sharing it, which has never happened with my previous books. Even though that is just one part of a larger story, it felt like I was inviting people to read my diary.

But books are meant to be read, so I am trying to start putting it out there better now! 😅 If you want to read it, it's a YA coming-of-age romance called Quo Vadis, Jane Mitchell? Here's a link.

If you have any books you found hard to promote because they got too "real," share the title and I'll check out yours too!

Hi everyone!

I've been working on an original fantasy novel called Sinbad in the Land of Dwarves.

Instead of another voyage across the sea, I imagined Sinbad discovering a hidden underground kingdom called Khazadorn—filled with dwarves, dragons, crystal caverns, and ancient mysteries.

This is one of the promotional posters I created for the book.

I'd genuinely appreciate any feedback on the artwork, composition, or overall presentation.

Thanks for taking a look!

Whether you're a man or a woman, by now you've probably noticed that most advice about love teaches you to protect yourself! Give less, match their effort, never text first. We usually forget that the meaning behind "loving" someone is to give with no strings attached. And there's no better example to look at in this than the sun.

I wrote a book showing exactly this: what love looks like when it stops keeping score. It looks at love from the perspective of the sun itself, and then projects that onto what loving that way means in a human life. It's a short book that you can finish fairly quickly, but — hopefully — it's the kind of book that stays with you long after you've closed it.

I really appreciate anyone taking the time to check it out, and I hope you enjoy it.

What if horror weren't a spiritual or moral phenomenon, but a purely physical force? An atmospheric pressure. A metallic taste in the mouth. A silent mutation in the ground beneath your feet.

¿Y si el horror no fuera un fenómeno espiritual o moral, sino una fuerza puramente física? ¿Una presión atmosférica, un sabor metálico en la boca, una mutación silenciosa en el suelo bajo nuestros pies?
En La luz que devora el cielo, el miedo es una propiedad de la materia. El Universo Maxwell está acechado por un cometa ferroso que distorsiona la biología y la física, exigiendo memoria, cordura y carne humana como el «precio» de su paso. En esta antología de horror cósmico y body horror, el lector se sumerge en una excavación cronológica inversa:
Ciclo I: La Apatía (2013) — El Alquiler: En la era moderna, familias enteras renuncian a su propia humanidad para sobrevivir a habitaciones anómalas que trituran cuerpos con el fin de estabilizar los cimientos de un hotel hambriento.
Ciclo II: La Cosecha (1893) — La Oscuridad Luminosa: En los cafetales de Minas Gerais, el suelo púrpura devora identidades y transforma a los trabajadores en abono viviente para una cosecha roja y maldita.
Ciclo III: La Fundación (1533) — La Capacocha: En lo alto de los Andes, el sacrificio humano y el amor de un hombre inmortal quedan reducidos a la frialdad mineral de la piedra ante la radiación estelar.
En el Universo Maxwell, la memoria tiene peso, el silencio tiene un precio y, cuando la tierra aprende... nunca olvida.

Tropes: cosmic horror, body horror, anthology/interconnected structure, historical horror, folk horror, loss of identity

Trigger Warnings: body horror and mutilation; graphic violence and severe psychological degradation; suicide, homicide, and grief; claustrophobia and loss of identity. Not recommended for readers under 18 or sensitive to visceral descriptions of human destruction.

Hello Everyone,

I was imagining things since I was 8 years old. I usually get vivid dreams that feel like stories, I sometimes write them. I used to write in my teens about my thoughts, my imagination and dreams but I destroyed all notes for years due to fear of putting myself out in the world. It took a lot of courage to finally publish my debut novel in Amazon last week.

Here is the book link: https://mybook.to/TheMarksSheCarried

Blurb:

I was twenty-seven when I walked into his residency. He was forty-seven. Famous. Married. The most disciplined man I had ever met. For seven months we said nothing. Then a storm sealed the house, and we stopped saying nothing.

I left four weeks early with his marks on my collarbone. They faded long before the wanting did.
A year later, I was engaged. To his son.

The Marks She Carried is a dark, slow-burning confession about wanting what you can't justify, choosing what you can't afford, and carrying what can't be undone. The story of a woman who was always too much, and the one man who never asked her to be less.

Content note: this book contains themes of infidelity, obsession, and pregnancy loss.
