Kay's "Do not" List
Do not :
-Go with your friend to her hair stylist wearing your black sweat pants, baggy shirt, messy ballerina bun and your glasses...
-Sleep more than four hours a night.
-Mistake what's on the bed beside your friend's cat as almonds... Really, don't!
-Fool yourself into thinking that that soil water you drank during three days will not make you sick because you're a "tough girl".
-Watch this video :
-Talk about Fight Club.
-Consider as an option breaking your father's guitar on his head, because he's just going to come back with one louder.
-Laugh in your teacher's face when he informs you that you final English writing exam will be a 400 words essay... because he's serious.
-Waste time making stupid list when you should be writing!

"Hey mom" Blake said sheepishly and then set me on my feet carefully.
Oh crap.
Blake's mom... did I want to meet Blake's mom just yet?
Blake went to stop the record player and I turned around to face Blake's mother, and then my eyes bulge.
Oh god...
She looked between me and Blake with her blue eyes, her blond hair swinging with the movement, for a few seconds that felt like an eternity, frowning, but then something seemed to click in her head.
And something had clicked in mine too...
"Hi. I don't think we've had the chance to meet, I'm-" she started to say, smiling but I cut her, not really wanting to but I was just in freaking trance or something "Sophia Everingham" I whispered.
Blake's mom, Blake's freaking mom was SOPHIA EVERINGHAM!!! His mom was a writing beast! She was a legend! I was in adoration with her books and she was BLAKE'S MOM!!

Breathe Lexi, BREATHE.
Oh my god, I'm so going to have a crazy ecstatic fan moment right now!
And how the hell hadn't I known that? WHY? I mean please that's something people would have talked about at school right? People in the town too right?
Because this was her!! I'd seen her picture on the back cover!
This was Sophia freaking Everingham!!
"Well, Sophia Eaton, I only use my maiden name as my pen name now" she answered smiling a little, and I don't know why but I could see Blake in her features then.
"Please mom! Pen name! Tsk" Blake said behind me and I turned and saw him roll his eyes at her.
"Don't hate the pen name Blake! You think you were better when you signed your paintings Blake Black!" she told him, smirking a little and right there, that was Blake alright!
And I chuckled a little, completely confused about the whole situation. I mean I was in front of one of my idols right now! And she was joking with her son, my jerky innuendos-addicted smirking and frankly quite stalkerish friend! How more out of this world can things get?
"MOM!!" Blake whined and I laughed more.
"Alright alright, I'll leave you two kids to whatever you were doing" she said, with the little grin and I almost blushed even though we really weren't doing anything that would make me blush, "Oh and Blake, when you have time, I need you to proof read something... I'm not sure, do I kill him, or I keep him alive?"
"Kill him. I don't need to read, just kill him, it'll make every one happier" Blake snorted.
Oh god! Was I having exclusive details about the next books!! Oh god!!
"Everyone isn't you, and if I do, then you'll have to deal with the ecstatic fan girls that will want to kill me" she laughed and I kept silent because I really wanted to know what she was talking about and I didn't want her to stop because I was there.
"Oh don't worry I can handle ecstatic girls" Blake smirked.
I rolled my eyes at him, and his mom did too.
"Is Josh coming over for dinner?" Sophia asked Blake as I just kept standing there like an idiot.
Seriously I should say something right? Introduce myself? Not stand there like some statue!

"Nope, he's still working on the mural and he doesn't want to stop until the plaster has dried cause he's getting hysterical about it" Blake chuckled.
"Alright..." she answered, laughing a little and then she looked at me "Are you going to be joining us?"
Oh god...
I mean, it's going to be weird... I mean I don't know her, I'm just obsessed with her books... it's going to be awkward... I just feel it... I'm not going to know what to say... I'm going to look dumb.
"You know mom, you might not want to invite her, I mean, she's one of the hysterical fans, she's probably going to attack us all, tie us up and force you to tell her all the secrets about your story!" Blake smirked.
"Oh ya?" she said, her voice playful.
"Ya, and she defended your characters can you believe that?" Blake smirked more "Said they weren't wuss!"
"I remember a time when my characters weren't wuss to you Blake" she answered him, with a small smile, and I don't know why, there was something there, something I didn't understand...
"No walk down memory lane please mom!" Blake whined and then he turned to look at me "You wanna stay for dinner and have my mom talk about all the freakish ideas she has bubbling in her head while her food gets cold" he asked me.
"Well to me that doesn't sound bad..." I answered sheepishly.
"HA! In your face Blake!! Not everyone is whiny like you!" she said, smirking at him, and then she smiled at me. "What's your name sweetie, I think my rude son didn't let you time to intrude yourself?"
"I'm Lexi Grayson"
"Well Lexi, you and me, we're going to have a nice talk when Blake here can scowl and pout in a corner" she chuckled and gestured for us to come with her and then she walked in front, Blake beside me.
He was scowling.
"So you never care to mention to me that Sophia Everingham was your mom!" I whispered to Blake.
"You never asked!" Blake smirked.
"Dumbass..." I mumbled for his sake and then I saw his mom chuckle lightly in front.
"Is she always that friendly with all the girls you prance around here?"
"What? No" Blake snorted
"But I mean what about your multiple one night stands? Don't they come here?"
"They wish!" Blake snorted again.
"Hmm?"
"Don't make that confused face Pumpkin" Blake smirked but before I could answer back my cellphone started to vibrate in my pocket.
I took it out and the caller ID was home so I answered it.
"What's up?" I answered, will stopping to walk.
"Hey Lex, are you coming home soon?" Tyler asked and his voice sounded weird.
"Eh well I was planning on staying over at Blake's for dinner, why?" I frowned, and Blake looked at me confused.
"You need to come home!" Ty said hastily.
"Why? What's wrong?"
"Dad took all the family old video tapes from our past vacations and he's listening to them with the Jack Daniels!" Ty answered me.
"What happened??"
Oh god... did dad snap?
"Dad got a call from his brother, his cousin died... you have to come home Lexi I don't know what to do... do I try to talk to him... I mean what do I do??"
Oh god... oh god oh god oh god...
We didn't need this right now, DAD didn't need this right now...
"Give me fifteen minutes I'll be there!" I answered him and then closed my phone "I'm sorry I gotta go..." I told Blake apologetically.
"What's wrong?" he asked frowning.
"Family problems... I really gotta go..." I trailed and then looked over at his mom who was looking at us "I'm sorry, but it was really nice meeting you..."
"It was nice meeting you too, you're always welcome here" she smiled.
"Thank you" I smiled faintly, but my mind was already miles away, to my house with my worried brother and my mourning father.
"Want me to come with you?" Blake asked, with a worried look.
"No I'm fine, but thanks for the night, I had fun..." I smiled faintly and then I rushed down the Titanic stairs, and turn around, waved at the two silhouettes still on the other level and then I walked out and ran to my car to go back home and try to fix things... like always...

Journey of Infinite Steps
Science Fiction/ Low fantasy Iliad. Oliver just wanted a job that could keep his family fed, and himself sane. Was that so much to ask for? Apparently. As he instead ends up facing monsters and dodging his way to another world instead. Competent as he views himself figuring out how to reopen a portal back home by himself is defiantly above his knowledge base. Of coarse it would be vastly simpler if he could keep 'getting back home' as his primary goal. 'Staying alive' is unfortunately a far more immediate and relevant goal. I will post any content warnings on a Per Chapter basis. Divisive content will be as skip-able as I can reasonably manage Discord Link will be available for those interested in assisting editing/ coauthoring. Especially character writers/those willing to work out the math/ economies and world building even if only as a wall to bounce ideas off of.-----Full Synapsis contains serious spoilers----- Looking to take care of his family, Oliver finds himself flung into a faraway place. Try as he might, his Iliad will not be simple or peaceful as he'd like. Alas the slow and unending war of Chaos and Order has long memories and longer reach. If Oliver is to make his way back home it looks like He'll have to solve the universe one fight and mystery at a time. Especially as the Laws of Physics shift, often on a per world basis. Hopefully there is still a home to come back to.

Celestial Spark
Mages traditionally make poor fodder, but with proper training and motivation, possess near limitless potential. For mage teams, the battle camps of the Upper Realms provide both, with missions ranging from orc hunts to political espionage. This tale follows one such team of four who strive to prove themselves in a world that would rather overlook them. Loyalty, honour, and devotion are contrasted by avarice, treachery, and apathy, though at times it can be difficult to separate vice from virtue. For though all people, whether they hail from the peripheries or the kingdom capital, are subjects whose fates are bound to the stars, their choices must be their own. Any comments or questions are welcomed.
