In SerialOne Star Boss: A Mecha/Virtual Reality LitRPG Comedy Sci-fi Action Adventure Virtual Reality Sports
The Overdrive Corporation has a problem. The esports company's proprietary AI is full of idiotic glitches. Professional mappers are making the virtual reality Mech fighting game's painstakingly designed bosses look like complete and utter fools.
The company's bombastic CEO, The Mechanical King, has come up with a truly unique solution. Instead of fixing the AI, he'll just hire human players to act as bosses behind the scenes.
When Jason was a kid fresh out of high school, playing as an Overdrive boss - even a weak early game boss - sounded like a dream come true. He dreamed of becoming a pro gamer and was addicted to competition. He loved the idea of battling skilled opponents all day and honing his mech piloting skills.
Two years later, an ill-fated clash against one of the game's most prominent whales sends his life into a tailspin.
Follow his adventures as he and his partner, the cyborg dragon Red Minerva, fight to leave his humble beginnings to stand among the best fighters on the server.

The General Core {The Sphere}
The life cycle in the Sphere is on the brink of collapse because one of its elements, the Dungeons, have been exploited too much by the mortals. The group who created the Sphere already tried and failed with several modifications, because the original computer-like dungeon cores are too inflexible to handle changing approaches. So they try another type of solution – taking souls from other worlds to try to find a solution before the Sphere Cycle breaks down completely. The General was one of the best soldiers of his world, rising from the ranks of a private through Officer School to the highest command with honors. But when his world faced a zombie apocalypse, even that was not enough and he had to make the ultimate sacrifice. Now he is asked for a repeat performance of planning and controlling a dungeon and its spawns in a world that he knows nothing about… But what is the Sphere really? What is that [Xenotic conversion] he has to go through to even enter the Sphere? Something is really strange and he will have to find out what is going on to get to his promised rewards – whatever they will be. Being a soul in a dungeon core means that the General has better chances of finding hints to the truth about the sphere – a knowledge that would help him survive. And no, the sphere is NOT a virtual reality – the key to its secrets is the place where it was physically constructed (Author’s hint). This is a dungeon core story - but there are quite a number of things that I will do differently than common to those stories. 1) I will describe the floors when they are explored, NOT when they are build. Yes, that will mean it will take longer to get to those parts - but I think describing floors both when they are build and when they are explored destroys quite a lot of chances for suspense when adventurers enter the dungeon. After all, if you as the reader already know where the traps are, then you can't really be surprised when the surfacers encounter them. 2) How the world works (and how not) is an integral part of the story, so it will be explained I'm a world-builder first and the Sphere is NOT a regular world (as hinted in the synopsis above). Things will work differently than in your 08/15 default dungeon core stories - as the General and Gunny have already learned in the second arc (and more of that is already scheduled for the next weeks (July/Aug 2019) when the Sky Arrows continue to explore and evaluate that strange dungeon) If you don't like these premises, then I'm sure you'll find a lot of other Dungeon Core stories more to your liking. But if you are interested in more than "Dungeon builds another room and corridor in medieval earth" and are not afraid of a longer and slower story, then go on. I have two more stories in the Sphere, although they both have lower priority than this one: Shaleen the Wanderer (Adventurer, NSFW) (currently on hold after some chapters) Info's on the Sphere (System Docu and Short Stories) (irregular updates when needed) Current Status reports have been moved to a new discord server: https://discord.gg/EaHkXCfm9y

Shades Of Meaning Book 1 : Ghost Shy
Grace tried never to interact with the ghosts that plagued her. After years of practice she was pretty good at pretending they didn't exist. Life was almost normal. That is until she was betrayed and kidnapped. Then it went to hell fast. Breaking free of her captors was only the first step. Despite her resistance, she came to realize that her new 'normal' would include making friends, or enemies, of ghosts, witches werewolves and a host of other individuals she had no names for. She had to fight for her life and the lives of the people she was coming to care for. To do that she would have to make a pact with a ghost and learn to harness the abilities she had suppressed all her life. But time was growing short and her reluctance to accept she was a necromancer of extraordinary power was proving a major problem.

Let Sleeping Gods Lie
To the west, the old empire of Ryedyn lays dormant beneath its blanket of ash and dust, a slumbering giant of history. To the east is the Sunken Moon, where the goddess that has forgotten her past sits alone atop her cold, wet, throne. All the majesty that this world once held has fallen to ruin, and what remains doesn't have much time left. Now only a few stand between the world and the end. A nameless novitiate in service to a god, a broken warrior with ambitions of matricide, and a strange man sealed with forgotten magic. Within these three are held the answers to the past, and the keys to the present. Let Sleeping Gods Lie is an epic tale of war and tragedy that follows multiple characters as their stories intersect, collide, and finally reveal the truths of the world and the lies that destroyed it.
