(Interview at Toad Town Plumbing Services)
Boss-Man: So Mr. Mario, tell me: why do you think you're qualified for his job?
Mario: Don't you-a watch the news? I'm-a Mario! Cleaning's-a what I do!
Boss-man: I haven't seen you do much cleaning when you were exterminating Goombas on your adventures.
Mario: Cleaning-a, exterminating... It's the same thing-a!!
Boss-man: Well, I dunno, Mr. Mario, you seem a little overqualified...
Mario (on his knees): Please-a!! I-a beg of you! I-a need this a-job! Ever since Bowser a-died, Princess Peach-a hasn't been kidnapped! Meaning-a I haven't gotten a-paid for saving her! And since I-a spent all my coins on-a 1-up Mushrooms, I need-a money to make my-a house payments!!
Boss-man: All right, ALL RIGHT! Since you're the only one who applied, you're hired.
Mario (in tears): A-thank you!!
(First day on the job)
Mario: Hi, I'm-a Mario, here to fix the-a washer.
Random toad: Yeah, thanks, the washer's in the basement.
(In the basement, Mario starts fixing the washer.)
Mario: How-a boring. I-a had more fun beating up a-Bowser...
(Spots a rat)
Mario: Eep! A rat! (Toasts it with a fireball.) (Another rat appears) Another one! Take a-that! (Burns another one to smithereens) (More rats appear)
Mario: Egad-a! This place is-a infested! (Summons a huge fireball) I'll a take-a care of this!
(Lobs the fireball...right at a bunch of gas cans.)
(House blows up)
(Back at Toad Town Plumbers)
Boss-man: You're fired!!!
Mario: a-Please, Mr. a-Boss Man! Give me another chance!
Boss-man: I don't need any more of your hair-brained heroic antics, you mustached headache!! Do you know we're getting sued because you blew up that house? We'll be lucky if we don't go bankrupt because of you!!
Mario: I'm-a sor--
(Boss-man kicks Mario out onto the street.)
Mario: a-Great. What am I-a going to do now?

The Othryrian Archives
"Humanity is on the cusp of their Great Expansion. It will be the first time in history that they’ve reached beyond their own solar system in an attempt to colonize the galaxy. Or, at least, so they thought. Peeling back the veil of time, The Empire of Sol has uncovered vestiges of a secret genetic program on the far flung planet of Hod. The advent of the Empire’s ancient enemy could upset the careful balance of power throughout in the Sol System. When Hod is invaded by the Empire, Andros Aeton is pressed into their service and his people are held hostage. Unbeknownst to him, factions within the Empire vie to use him to their own ends. He must claim his heritage if he has any hope of escaping the clutches of the forces that seek to use him." This is a work in progress. Major editing will be done after the book is complete, so there will be egregious typos and parts that make no sense whatsoever. Please feel free to point any and all of these things out. Chapters WILL get edited, and that editing might break earlier chapters. I will attempt to keep readers apprised of all changes. As always, feedback is welcome and appreciated.

Gateway
An archaeologist by the name of Søren Quinn wakes up elsewhere after boarding a plane for Iceland. Now he has to come to terms with a significant loss of recent memory and his apparent death and rebirth, provided he can survive the rigors of the Tutorial on Gateway Station and whatever waits for him after the Tutorial. Updates. When I can... sorry. Author's Note. Gateway is a portal/isekai style GameLit novel, but it has two main lead characters and will eventually have a small cast of minor lead characters to support them. There will be small elements of base building / kingdom management added as well over time, but they will not be the focus. Gateway really is a slow burn that takes some time to get going unfortunately, but I hope you find it's worth the wait. Thank you! p.s. Book One is finally done (only needed one more chapter unfortunately...) but I'm off hiatus now and will be starting on Book Two right away!

Serf
The Unbinding series Arc: Soil and Water Serf Taran is tired of being a healer. Everyone wants and demands all the time, and even his best friends aren't making things better. A new game gives him the opportunity to try out a new playstyle, finally allowing him the chance to create, instead of just helping others destroy. While the World Below offers unlimited possibilities for enterprise, Tee first needs to navigate the drama, schemes and downright shenanigans that happen whether he likes it or not. ** Note as of 26-Sep-2018 ** I have to take time out of writing Serf to finish editing Darkborn. I will resume it as soon as I can. Thank you for your patience. Catch me on twitter @mroysson for updates. --- This is the second book in my Unbinding series. There is no need to read the first one (Unbinding - The Dark Spiral - Darkborn). Some elements, however, will be more familiar to readers of my previous story.
