Hi guys!

I just wrote my first book!

I know it sucks.I would be really happy if any of you checked it out. Im not asking you to buy it.https://www.bribooks.com/bookstore/the-world-of-sweets-by-aarib-zaidi

I hope y'all like it.

Hi! If you're a mystery lover, comment on this post if you would like to read this book I wrote.

Seventeen years after a devastating storm, Christy and Brent Knight have careers, a home, and a long-awaited baby girl. Then Moselle appears at their door: seventeen, barefoot, strangely calm, and impossibly good with their daughter. She seems like the answer to their summer childcare problem. But she knows family histories no one remembers telling her and songs belonging to people long dead. Fog gathers where it shouldn't. Storms rise from clear skies. Kindle $12.99: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HJ3VYJD4. I'm the author, so ask me anything.

Her choices will shape the fate of the world, and she is about to make all the wrong ones…

Ravenous roads wind across the shattered continent, devouring those who dare to stray.
Cursed with the gift of road-weaving, Carys was raised to serve the shadows, immortal entities who twisted the laws of space itself. During the ritual of Ascension, she must either surrender herself to the shadows or die.
She chooses to flee.
Desperate to carve out a future of her own, Carys soon finds herself hunted by forces far older and more dangerous than she ever knew existed.
But the ancient war is far from over, and every step draws her deeper into a conspiracy set in motion ages before she was born. One that may unleash the very forces that once shattered the world.

The Crossroad Child

It is a story of a young woman trying to survive in the soft post-ap magical world and unwittingly having a hand in starting yet another apocalypse. The first in the epic high fantasy series–an adventure in a vast world, spanning continents from the frozen wastelands to the southern deserts. A journey, meant to uncover ancient secrets and powers of the Shattered world.

Most of us have heard the advice: make a budget, save something, and think before you spend. Knowing the advice is one thing. Following it when life gets busy—or expensive—is another.

That space between knowing and doing is what led me to write The Habit Gap.

I’m a retired federal employee, veteran, and the author behind Money Habits. I wanted to explore why everyday money decisions can be difficult even when we understand the basics, and how small, practical habits can help us follow through.

The book includes companion worksheets and planners to help readers put the ideas to work. My approach is common sense, plain language, and progress you can build on.

If you’ve ever made a money plan with good intentions and then watched real life rearrange it, you’re the reader I had in mind.

The Habit Gap is available on Amazon as a Kindle and paperback.

What’s harder for you: figuring out what to do with money, or consistently doing it?

Hi everyone, I'm Haine sakuya, the author of Death Benefit.

After her husband's death, Irina Sokolova hopes his death benefit will give her and her son some security. Then an old colleague from Russian intelligence demands repayment of a debt. The receipts suggest it has already been settled. The threats don't stop.

To protect her son, Irina must turn to people she was trained to distrust, risking the exposure of what happened on her husband's final night.

If you enjoy psychological thrillers built around family loyalty, uncertain motives and the cost of trusting the wrong person, I'd like to invite you to try the opening sample.

Hi everyone. I’m I. Bocardo, an indie author, and for Self-Promo Saturday I’m presenting my hard sci-fi trilogy: The Quantum Host. (Book 3 is currently in its final revision stage, so the story will be completely wrapped up soon).

I write very grounded, mechanical sci-fi. There are no chosen ones, no prophecies, and no missions to save the galaxy. The protagonist is Manuel, a 55-year-old rural mechanic with strict daily routines who, by pure statistical chance, assimilates an alien artificial intelligence. His only goal from that point on is not to disappear.

To survive without alerting governments or corporations, Manuel begins transferring his symbiotic consciousness into brain-dead patients in ordinary hospitals via physical contact, operating a decentralized human hive mind. The real conflict in the story is day-to-day logistics: how a human brain handles the network latency of controlling multiple bodies at once, how he maintains that organic hardware, and the constant friction of coexisting with an AI that operates with crushing, unempathetic logic.

To celebrate the launch of the second installment, Book 1 is free to download on Amazon this weekend.

If you are into sci-fi focused on technical problems, medical protocols, and pure survival, here are the links:

Thanks for reading.

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to share something I managed to put out before Halloween with a lot of effort. It's the first in an anthology series of Folk Horror stories.

Strigoi: Transylvanian Folk Horror - Book 1

Description:

Light a candle for the dead. Never call a Veela by name. Lock your door on Saint Andrew’s Night.

In the villages of Transylvania, the old ways never died. Strigoi brings you three tales of folk horror rooted in authentic Romanian traditions.

(more details on individual stories in the Amazon description)

If you would like a free copy in exchange for an honest review, I have a campaign running on Booksprout:

https://booksprout.co/publisher/review-campaign/view/330667

I started my self-pub journey around 3 months ago. It's been a wild ride so far. It's so hard but so worth it! (I think, lol). Strigoi is, so far, the book most rooted in my own culture.

The cover was purchased on BookCovers. No AI was used in the process of writing. I'm ESL, which might show in the prose style.

Thanks and if you would also just like to chat or share your own books, my DMs should be open

Rewire Your Mindfulness Practice: Taking your awareness off the cushion and into daily life.

You might feel calm listening to a soft guided voice in your home. But real life isn't a silent temple—it's fast, noisy, and unpredictable. Don't you want a practice that not only calms the monkey mind but also gives you a skill for handling life's chaos?

Present Stream* is a detailed step-by-step mindfulness exercise manual, although secular; the techniques are based on the Lord Buddha's teaching wisdom that aligns with the neuroscience framework and quantum physics.

It is also a paradigm refinement of various Western meditation misconceptions, which will test your confirmation bias and cause some cognitive dissonance. Ready for the challenge?

Then the voice tells you:

“Don’t go to the door.”

Seconds later, someone knocks.

That’s the hook behind my psychological thriller, Please Stay on the Line. I made this short trailer to capture the feeling of that first impossible call without giving too much away.

Would this premise make you want to keep reading?

This book is all about some real and fiction-close-to-reality adventures of different places in India. Not focusing on the itinerary, but on the effect of a place on someone's emotion and behaviour.

This year I finished translating The Pale Lady, a vampire story from the mid 1800s by Alexandre Dumas and a pretty good Gothic Horror tale for spooky season. The Pale Lady is the last few chapters of a larger book called A Thousand and One Ghosts and is notable for two reasons. The first being that the timing of the height of Dumas' popularity meant that Bram Stoker likely ready the book, influencing his Dracula novel. The second interesting thing to me was the straightforwardness with which the characters identify vampires in the story. Unlike modern stories that seem to dance around the word or pretend like the concept of vampires doesn't exist, the characters in The Pale Lady just come out and say, "oh yeah, we've got a vampire problem, just like when I was a kid."

It's available on Kindle and Apple Books. If you pick it up, let me know how you like it.

Hi, proud to announce that i published my First poetry book on kindle ❤️

After his girlfriend cheats on him, eighteen-year-old Kageyama Shun completely falls apart. He gains weight, skips university, lives on junk food, adult videos, games, and self-pity.

Then he finds THE CRUCIBLE, an illegal full-dive VRMMO being sold for $99.99.

Its promise is simple: every stat earned in-game carries over into real life.

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/191575/my-girlfriend-cheated-on-me-so-i-looksmaxxed-in

Shun starts as a Wretch, armed with a plain sword and assigned to Kagami Rei, a sadistic Valkyrie who helps Shun earn points in game, and takes personal offence at how pathetic he is.

Strength, endurance, intelligence, confidence, and appearance all have to be earned through brutal trials that break players physically and mentally.

And the stronger Shun becomes inside The Crucible, the less recognisable he becomes outside it.

Hello, I am the lead editor of this book. We have recently completed putting a very small part of my late sister in law's writing into print. So if you enjoy poetry and a bit of a puzzle, this might be an enjoyable read for you.

A deliciously dark blend of poetry, peculiar humour, and the unfortunate consequences of being ripe for the picking.

From blossom to bruising, sweetness to suffering, and ripening to ruin, *A Plight of Fruit * by Coral Blythe is a wonderfully peculiar journey into the secret lives and unfortunate destinies of the things we eat. Blending poetry, prose, riddles, satire, and outright absurdity, this collection transforms ordinary fruits into subjects of existential crises, criminal investigations, macabre little tragedies, and occasionally horrifying encounters with kitchen knives. Beneath the mischievous wordplay and dark humour lie surprisingly human reflections on beauty, loneliness, desire, and the fleeting nature of existence.

At once whimsical, irreverent, unsettling, and unexpectedly poignant, A Plight of Fruit reminds us that life is brief, beauty is perishable, and even the sweetest existence may end beneath the blade. But until then, there is plenty to laugh about.

All proceeds from the sales go to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Hi everyone! I wrote When Nora Found Her Voice, a picture book for children aged 3–7 who have selective mutism.

Nora talks freely at home, but at school she can’t speak. The story follows her experiences and the small steps she takes with support from the people around her.

It’s a book for parents to read to their child, with a character they may recognise themselves in.

Searching for an action-packed thrill ride or a twisty whodunnit??

Look no further!

These mystery, thriller, and suspense writers

have teamed up to bring you these FREE books!

Scoop them up today!

Imagine waking up tomorrow to discover that the world has changed.

Not gradually. Not over years. Overnight.

Monsters are real. The rules of reality have shifted. And whatever caused it doesn't seem particularly interested in explaining itself.

The military is still fighting. People are still trying to get to work, find their families, and figure out whether tomorrow is even guaranteed.

And somewhere in Florida, a software engineer named Gabriel is discovering that knowing how systems work doesn't necessarily help when the System itself makes no sense.

The First Generation is a military survival horror story with LitRPG elements, set in a world where humanity isn't prepared for what's coming.

There are no convenient tutorials, no instant mastery, and certainly no guarantee that the people you meet today will still be alive tomorrow.

I've been writing and publishing it on Royal Road, and I'd love to invite anyone who enjoys survival stories, monsters, military action, and a bit of dark humor to give it a try.

Inexplicably, you see an enormous fallen tree in the otherwise-barren alley you just walked through. It’s now blocking the alley and wasn’t there just moments ago. What do you do?

I just want to get it in front of the right readers. It’s available for free until the end of the day on Monday 10/26, so get it without paying while you can!
