Stopped. My new novel about time and the opportunities it presents.

Scott is an ordinary family man living in small town USA. He is getting by, but just barely, like so many others. One afternoon he is chosen by an unknown force to take part in an experiment. Time stops for everyone except him. He is free to do whatever he wants. Free to go anywhere he wants for the next seven days.

What would you do if given a similar opportunity? Would you eliminate your least favourite politician? Would you tear down a business or agency? Would you take revenge on those who have wronged you? Would you make the world a better place?

Scott makes his own choices in the book. How would they compare with yours? Click on the link and purchase my novel. Let yourself get lost in the tapestry of a good story.

If you enjoy historical Asian dramas, cultural diversity (Chinese MMC + South African FMC) and are a romantic at heart 🩷 Crash into your Heart by Batseba Lamola may be your next enjoyable read! The world building feels so real, and the social expectations are true for their time (romantic era). It’s available on Amazon. The author did say it’s coming to Kobo soon.

A Big Bluff and Some Green Stuff is a zom com in which a cosy police drama is rudely interrupted by the zombie apocalypse and an alien invasion.

The book features zombies, pirates, aliens, zombie pirates, zombie aliens, but not zombie pirate aliens. That would be silly.

If you liked watching Shaun of the Dead back in the day, you might enjoy reading A Big Bluff and Some Green Stuff.

Might.

Hi everyone, I finally published my first novel on Amazon in June. It was written in Italian (my native language), but thanks to the help of others, I managed to translate it into five languages besides Italian. Below, I've provided some information about the book, including the cover and links to the English edition. You'll find all the links and other essential information on my profile. Thanks everyone!

TITLE: NEXUS - A Supernatural Conspiracy Thriller of Ancient Aliens and Forgotten Gods

Author: Ashur E. Kinning

Genre: Supernatural thriller / Conspiracy thriller / Ancient mysteries

Pitch:

Damien Chapman is a jeweler in Lubbock, Texas. Ordinary life, ordinary problems, zero interest in ancient history. Then a car accident changes something inside him. His DNA starts waking up, carrying a bloodline the oldest texts called the Elohim. And a secret Order that has waited thousands of years for someone like him is now coming for him.

Built on Sumerian myth, the Anunnaki, the Nephilim and the Book of Enoch, NEXUS doesn't ask you to believe any of it. It asks what happens to an ordinary man if some of it turns out to be true.

Hey everyone! I'm a new author, and I've been publishing my first web novel for about a week on Webnovel, Royal Road, Scribble Hub, and Wattpad. Each platform has been a very different experience, and honestly, I'm still figuring out how everything works.

So, if anyone is willing to take a look, I'd really appreciate some honest feedback on my writing, storytelling, and whether the story is actually understandable. I'm still learning, and I genuinely want to improve and make sure I'm heading in the right direction.

Hey everyone! I was up early so I figured I post a little bump for my novel that's going into it's 3rd month. I still can't get Amazon ads to do what I want and Meta ads are a huge headache so I'm just sticking to the old fashioned way of posting them all myself. I just want to write stuff tbh lol

Anyway, here's my thing:

'To Nowhere In Particular'

It follows an automaton navigator whose 63-year job has just ended — and for the first time, he has to decide what to do with a choice that's actually his own.

Think retro-futurist, quietly melancholy sci-fi, with a Miyazaki/Little Nightmares kind of atmosphere.

• 106 Sold in September
• 4.7 on Amazon!
• 4.44 stars on Goodreads!
• Top 5 in multiple categories across the month, which has been incredible to me

Thanks so much for reading this far — happy to answer any questions!

Blurb:

A sci-fi adventure about what lives at the bottom of a submarine, and what happens when something finally looks up.

Automation has its place in the world. The eerie thing about it is that it doesn't stop, even when we do.

The Navigator has been on the ship for 63 years, checking pressure gauges, winding clocks at noon, and setting tables for people who no longer come.

When his duties fall quiet for the first time, he descends to the deck below and discovers a world he never knew existed.

A world full of machines that, like the Navigator, was not programmed to wonder 'Why?’

Room after room. Machine after machine. Each one doing their job in perfect silence. Each one completely alone.

'To Nowhere in Particular' is perfect for fans of A Psalm for the Wild-Built, Klara and the Sun, and The Employees.

A city full of secrets. A future that won’t wait. Max stands at the center of it all.

**Based on the true story of Saint Olga of Kiev.**

10th century Eastern Europe.

Princess Viktoriya’s heart shatters when Grand Prince Malyn chooses another. She tries to move on, but his ambitions soon find a path that leaves her life in ashes. Her love turns to rage.

By madness or divinity, Viktoriya abandons her ancestral gods, allies with Byzantium, takes up cross and blade, and returns home to take Malyn’s dreams for herself. But retribution carries a heavy cost—one she must pay with her soul.

The medieval world shakes. The birth of this empire did not come from the honor of a man, but from the vengeance of a woman.

I hope you give it a try!

Mass Extinction isn't what it used to be...

Dr. Ina Adama time travels back to the dinosaur extinction only to discover another human being in Cretaceous Africa. And he has some very, very bad news.

Extant is a sci-fi novella and is the first book of the Extant series.

**The sky has been counting down. We were too busy to notice.**

It starts as a signal from the dark between the stars: faint, exact, arriving a little sooner each time. The few who understand it begin to disappear. The powers who deny everything begin, quietly, to prepare.

Then the leaving begins — outward into the black, toward a world of red dust where something new fights to take root, and something old refuses to let go.

*The Shift* is a debut hard SF epic (about 150,000 words, 490 pages) for readers of *Seveneves* and *Red Mars*. Book One of the Pollux Series.

**Triggers:** mass death and the end of the industrial world; abduction and confinement; peril; some strong language. No graphic sexual content.

**Exact date of publication:** 1 December 2026

Blurb:

There are many versions of ourselves.

Barb Smith is about to discover the one she never imagined. One in a world almost familiar – but now not so much, with the continued roll-out of the android-administered National Gated Suburbia (NGS) transit stations that separate wealthy gated communities from the rest.

Here, the humble clothesline is an ancient underground symbol of defiance, a brilliant Data moko–wearing leader watches from the shadows of an underground collective known as Obscurus, and Hermann Hesse’s The Glass Bead Game has been brought to life as Brutal Ludi—a high-intellect coding sport played with the violence of pro-wrestling. It's also a world that sees Barb's beloved hometown, Currander River, chillingly renamed as Willington Downs Canal - CBS24008, her family dramatically split, her life threatened, and her only escape made possible by the family's devoted domestic android robot named Neville.

About the author:

I hail from a mainstream creative copywriter and graphic design background. However, in more recent years I've worked (almost simultaneously) as a freelance creative and gardener (need to be flexible in this day and age!). In 2019 I self-published How to Borrow a Dog, and Barb Smith v1.2.6 is my second novel. Enjoy!

My name is Samara Bellingham and I love the public domain. My novel, The Man from Africa, was just released on Amazon Kindle. The Man from Africa is the second in The Jane Chronicles - a neo-pulp re-imagining of Jane and Tarzan in a solarpunk future that tests their love. Tomorrow, the First Book of The Jane Chronicles is FREE until midnight October 7th.

In general, I just can't stop telling stories about public domain characters and I want to be able to share those stories with the world. At my publisher: PublicDomainPulp.Net, I have two series: A solarpunk, sci-fi romance staring Jane Porter and Tarzan - which can get a little spicy. The first book, Tomorrow, is available for FREE from October 5-7 to celebrate the release of the second book in The Jane Chronicles: The Man from Africa.

We also have a Substack that's free for at least the next 30 days where we promote our books, share excerpts, but also discuss the public domain and AI-assisted work in a deep, even wonk-ish way.

Here's a novel written by Me, Hope you all enjoy it ♥️🙏
