Magic Apprentice
Legends speak of an era where demons and gods once lived with one another. Different in nature and identical in strength, the two co-existed peacefully together. That is, until the right to govern humanity divided them. The Glorious Crusade; as it became to be known, caused space and time to be divided and the world separated into differing realms. Human civilization rebuilt itself after thousands of years, and without the gods or demons, they became the masters of their world. Yet the gods and demons remain. Time and time again, the two have constantly attempted to breach the human world and regain supremacy—Elric, the son of a grocer, was born in such an era. Inept in the art of magic, Elric was somehow able to apprentice himself under the lecherous and rogue of a magus, Victor. Here lies the story of Elric, Belladonna, Jerry, and Kite. Together, the four embark on an adventure fraught with danger. Here, the Canon of Elric the Prophet will begin…

Dungeon Scholar
Girl meets dungeon. What could go right? A story of a good-hearted Scholar driven by her compassion and curiosity. She might be a little combat averse, but um, isn't that only logical? Love me a good grimdark, but sometimes I want to read feel-good fiction that isn't pure action, romance, or comedy. The plot and characters of Dungeon Scholar won't be all happy and fluffy, and the world will be more dungeons and monsters than rainbows and puppies, but overall the sweet moments should overshadow the bitter. Let's say three dollops of sugar for every pinch of salt, with lemon slices left on the saucers? Enjoy. Note: This is NOT a typical dungeon story. If you are here for the dungeon aspect, then fair warning this will seem incredibly slow-burn to you. The dungeon will eventually become the most important 'character,' arguably, or the second-most important narratively, but you might jump out the window in frustration long before that happens. At its heart, the story's core remains 'girl meets dungeon,' not 'dungeon meets world.' (To be clear, this does or will have a plot! It's just the more conventional story-like elements contribute to Rowena Loress's greater story, not the other way around; no conflict takes center stage until it becomes personally significant to her. Meanwhile, have some Slice of Life.) Updates every Friday Cover made using Waifulabs Written using 4thewords (referral code: UZJRY55368)

The Stone of Predestination
In a world very similar to our own, the Energy is the driving force of many big and small miracles, and the people who control it are revered, loved and hated by the ones born un-gifted. Karil is an orphan and would give anything, even his own life, to become one of the masters of the Energy. At the day of the final exam, he is reviled the horrible truth – he does not have the gift. But is that really so? Karil plunges in a turbulent adventure trough woods, deserts, and sometimes even through his own mind, looking for the answer to the question who, or rather what he is. But nothing is what it seems – friends are enemies, enemies are friends, his parents are not exactly his parents, and the border between good and evil disappears. And over all this looms the shadow of The Stone of Predestination – the greatest weapon ever created. There is no time to lose! The Stone must not fall into the Master’s hands, or something really, really bad would happen. On Karil’s fragile shoulders now falls the burden to prevent the end of the world… or to fulfil the Oracle’s prophecy and destroy it with his own hands.

Greene's Monthly Contest
most writers don't have enough recognition. most of them only win awards based on the general aspects of a story; genre or theme, judged by the same things, not appreciating the genius behind the chapters. same awards, same results.--and we disagree with that.
