Vampire Girlfriend: Tatiana (rough draft)

There are nights where the stars in the sky spread out in the endless ink that it feels like eternity isn’t such a far off concept. I can see it up there, each star a bullet point into the how and why of it all. From my little garage I can understand that my eternity has only begun. I have so much farther to go, so many years, so many lives to lead. Being a vampire, eternity is a game rather than a fairy tale.

For the last few years I’ve operated a small garage at the end of town. I...

Tiefling Boyfriend: Leary (complete)

Female Human x Male Monster Narrator (both cis)

When I took a job as a waiter, I was hoping to learn about the kitchen, because I wanted to be a chef. Instead, I learned that being a waiter was like working retail but with more steps. If I didn’t have bills, I would have quit a long time ago. Tips are usually good, but aside from those and free food the work is draining.

On my days off ...

Novel Project: Support a Chapter

I've decided to undertake this project as a personal gift to myself, as well as a much needed break from commissions (which I really love but I've rarely been able to complete a personal project). As such, I'm taking a huge chunk out of my monthly earnings. In fact, I'm taking about half of my monthly income away doing this. I've planned for this at least, but still, it will put a strain on my income.

As such, I'm opening it up for people to support chapters! This includes some benefits...

Half-orc Girlfriend: Sanati (rough draft)

The help wanted posters were put up about a week ago, and already you’re getting prospective guards for the farm. Your father is very specific, wanting to find the toughest and scariest he could to protect the farm.

“We need to scare them off at the pass,” he said. “So we need some scary looking motherfuckers.”

This made sense to you, but at the same time you thought you needed someone knowledgeable too. Someone who knew how to fight, knew how to be defensive. You didn...

Orc Boyfriend: Moreno 2 (complete)

Female Reader x Male Monster (both cis)

In the few months since his return home, Moreno has become quite the popular topic. It seems that any time you go near the woodshop, there are people there, either shopping or talking to Moreno about his time in Charbagne. Even at the brewery people flock to him, wanting to hear his stories and  catch up on the gossip happening elsewhere in the world...

Mailouts for June: Mailed!

Yes, you heard it hear. Keep a look out for your June Hearthway Hollow mailouts! They should be there very soon. If you have any issues please contact me ASAP! If any were sent back from previous months, they will be included in this mailout and hopefully both will get to you.

I’m trying to decide what to do for August so I’ll probably do a poll. But it’s between Mr. Faire and Odd the tiefling.

The Soldier: Part Two (rough draft)

There had once been a maid in the employ of the Marfont family. She was young, near the same age as Corinne, but she was tall and rather boyish in appearance. She was a hard worker, and during the last days of Mrs. Marfont’s illness, she had been the only one allowed at her side.

The young maid and Corinne were also close. Due to being close in age, and the fact no one was allowed around the property while Mrs. Marfont was sick, they became friends. Corinne admired the maid’s streng...

You were abandoned as a newborn, and found crying in the bushes by a hunting dog who took you to his master. The hunter Andre was out with his son, Moreno, and the two of them took care of you until they could return home. They took you to Baia, who had just lost her son, and Baia says that though you came from a stranger, she knew right away that you wer...

Story Posting Alternatives

I got a message this morning that a ton of my stories are being removed from watpadd and ther eis going to be a significant chance that my wattpad will be taken down. Wattpad served as a masterlist since mine hasn't been updated in sometime (I'll slowly be working on it). But now I am looking for a new place to post, AO3 is the main option, but I don't think it's the best place considering this is neither fanfic and I do make money off the stories, which could harm AO3. I'll be looking into n...

Being patient had never been a blessed attribute for Corinne. Having an anxious disposition it felt like such a foreign concept to her. And due to having a rich family, she never had to wait long for things anyways. Corinne was spoiled in youth, doted on by her loving parents. Her father, Xavier, was a renowned doctor, while her mother came from a high regarded family. It wasn’t until her mother died that Corinne grew out of her spoiled ways. She grew up, helping to take care of the house, ...

That first kiss happened late in summer. You had just turned twelve and your parents usually either sent you to ssummer camp or a relative’s place to escape the crowds. That summer you’d been headed to camp, and when you got home you felt that getting trampled by tourists would have been better. You were savaged by mosquitos, sunburnt, and heartbroken...

Mail Outs: Update Your Address!

I’ve had a couple of mailouts come back to me saying they are not deliverable. I’ve tried reaching out but I don’t know if my messages have been seen by the individuals, so I’m gonna yell here. Update your addresses or just double check them. I’ll be sending out the Hearthway Hollow June ones soon!

The Veils: Childhood 2 (rough draft)

Atticus helped me ease back onto the ground. I looked up into the sky as I took deep breaths. I was near sobbing when Atticus laid beside me, taking my hand into his and holding it to his chest. “I’ll stay for a while, okay? Just a few days to play the brain again.”

I shuddered and he gave my hand an extra tight squeeze, just like he used to. “What do you mean that my name is Daisy?”

“Because you are,” he whispered. “I forget why that was what they called you. Some...

Blackforte Cove used to not be on anyone’s radar, just a spot to stop and find a restroom. That changed some during your childhood. What had once been a quiet, perhaps boring, little seaside town became a popular tourist attraction overnight when the town’s namesake, Captain Blackforte’s ship, was discovered offshore by oceanographers studying the m...

The Veils: Childhood 1 (rough draft)

When I was little, I was sent to live with a distant relative. There had been an accident that took my parents, although I can’t really recall it. Aside from photographs, I can’t really recall much of my family before then. The first thing I could ever clearly bring up is that house on the hill. It was old then, paint peeling off the sides, the columns cracked and chipping. But it was the rolling sea of grass behind it I remember the most. It faded on and on into the distance, green as fa...

Ben’s next visit is a few days later, and his usual mask of bravado and joy quickly slips away once he’s in the room alone with me. I stand looking at him, waiting for him to complain that I’m not wearing the outfit he bought for me. “I thought for once you’d wear it.” He picks up the box, which I haven’t even opened this time....

Eldritch Lover: Part Two (rough draft)

I went back to the tank room, finding that the creature was excitedly watching. It followed my movements again, coming to meet me as I stood at my usual spot. It pressed its hands to the glass, tapping over and over as I tried to think. I came close, meeting their palms.

I motioned to the black, red, and blue marker from last night. “Did you reach out to me last night? Touch the blue if you did.”

Their palm slid onto the blue.

I kept my eyes upon its palm. “Touch blue ...

I reside in the Heimlich Correctional Facility, a specially fortified prison made to house the exceptionally gifted criminal - a jail for supervillains. I’m not one for the flowery talk that is used to describe me. The title of ‘exceptionally gifted criminal’ sounds like a participation trophy. The facts are these: I break the law, I have supe...

The call came in at a rather late hour. Work usually never contacted me until the morning on weekdays. Never after six. Certainly never on weekends. This was something new, almost strange considering how consistent they had been. This job was strange to say the least, but at east they were professional.

It had been storming the last few days, nothing out of the ordinary really. The winds had been strong, and the rain came and went in spurts of showers or heavy force. Tonight it was driz...

Thursday evening, I’m in my classroom grading papers, because I’d rather stay late than take any of this shit home. Between my stage performance class and theatre history class, I really don’t have much, but it takes time to go over all this. I leave the building just as the streetlamps flicker on, and I glance towards the STEAM building to ...
