Welcome to The Fort - where folk horrors and eldritch terrors meet! The Fort is a town like a thousand other small and stubborn settlements, put where it doesn't belong in a land most unforgiving. There amongst the other townsfolk, live the LaPonte family. Mildred, and Mark - along with their 2 wonderful children. They live in a quaint house; modest and rundown, but very much a home filled with love.
But all in not well in The Fort....
Dark forces look in on the LaPonte Family, through the windows, standing at the edge of their property where their land meets the overgrown and wild edges of a persistent, and creeping wilderness.
Above, below, and beside are vast worlds of slumbering, malevolent creatures of existentially ambiguous origins, waiting to devour all.

Her Beast
Everyone in the town of Ashwood had heard the stories. For generations, whispers of a Beast in the woods echoed through quiet kitchens and over flickering campfires. It was said to prowl the dense forest that circled the town like a watchful wall. No one had ever seen its face-only its outline. A hulking silhouette, barely distinguishable from the darkness itself, always watching, always just out of reach. Sometimes it appeared under the light of a full moon, lingering at the edge of vision before vanishing again for years. And when it returned, it brought a hush with it. Birds would fall silent. Dogs would cower. Shadows seemed to grow longer, colder. Most of Ashwood scoffed at the legends now. They called it a ghost story for children, a tale told to keep teenagers from wandering too far. But the ones who knew better-the ones who had seen the shadow moving between the trees-felt the truth in their bones. The Beast was real. And whatever it was waiting for, it was coming closer. But Zoey knew, he was coming for her. Romance Fantasy Novel A book full of romance, secrets, prophecies and much more!!Complete
Ashes of tomarrow
Genre: Sci-Fi | Psychological Horror | Post-Apocalyptic Drama When the world burned, four teenagers survived. Milo, Rae, Ava, and Silas didn't ask to live through the end - but they did. Now, stuck in a ruined world of silence, shadows, and memories that aren't always their own, they fight to stay human in a landscape shaped by something unnatural. But survival gets more complicated when they uncover a chilling truth: the apocalypse wasn't a disaster. It was a test. A controlled experiment under the name Project Loci - and they were its subjects. Now stalked by cloned imposters, haunted by flickers of who they used to be, and drawn toward a signal no one else is meant to hear, the group must decide what they're willing to lose to uncover the truth... and what might already be lost. Because in a world built from lies, the biggest question isn't what happened. It's who are you now that everything's gone? What will happen once one dies?
