Kaytlin Phillips (kaytlinphillips) | 15 comments I'm going with a short description...so my book 'World of Silence' is hopefully going to release toward the end of March it's about a deaf boy named Fledge and his struggle to be seen for more than just a deaf boy. It's set in a fantasy kingdom, has dragons, betrayal, and all sorts of fun stuff...lol...
My current WIP is a YA western about Daniel, a boy running from his past. It's coming along okay...

message 5: by [deleted user] (new)

So…I’m still writing it…with my niece and here’s a short summary of Red Of The Wolves
Her grandmother died, she has no one left….except the wolves. Red becomes an infamous outlaw, and raider. Rumors say that she’s a vicious killer and wild like the beasts that she lives with. She wears a red hood everywhere, and a knife like a claw hangs around her neck.

Jack’s life is poor and simple but nice….until he’s attacked by wolves led by the one and only Red. He’s captured, and held captive. His house burns down, and his mother dies. He blames Red and tries to run away. He soon joins the wolves, after they save his life from a rivaling pack. He had no one left, what harm would it do to join the wolves.

Red and Jack grow to be best friends, and then get thrown in jail and stuff happens….at this point you know I haven’t really written much of that 🤣

Okay so I'm posting my (as of now) official summary, but I'm not actually going to share the story yet because I'm trying to keep track of just how many alpha readers I have so I can keep track of what kind of feedback I'm getting.



Arctashia is a world of vibrant colors, of excitement. Adventure lurks around every corner. Separate Dimensions are inhabited by Elves, Dwarves, Talceens, and Men. But Arctashia is no paradise. Epochs ago, something went wrong, and Delandries, the Mountain of Dimensions, was lost to a darkness so thick not even the strongest Elf can pierce it. Arctashia waits in breathless tension for the hero that will set reality right…

Evie is a 16-year-old girl with an abusive mother, a paralyzed brother, and a past that is not what it seems. Plagued by the revelations of a strange rock and a stranger man named Cheyaphar, she sets out on a journey to discover her purpose. What she finds could change the course of her life – and the future of Arctashia – forever.

Kilied has it all. A talented twin sister, a loyal dragon, and a beautiful house. But Kilied’s every thought is haunted by the tragedy of his past. His every move is hampered by the reality of a betrayal and a dark lord’s deception. So when the Third Dimension is overcome by the great Darkness, Kilied must flee with his sister Kirielle and his dragon Balorico in the hopes that he can set the disaster right. But Kilied’s past is running him down, and he cannot hold much longer. Will he discover the truth before it is too late?

When disasters and tragedies force Evie and Kilied together, they must learn to work alongside a strange winged woman, an exiled king, and a dwarf lady who may or may not be entirely crazy. Can the group of misfits push back the darkness before it is to late, or will Kilied's dark lord enslave them all?

HAVENCREST - novel of some sort... here is the blurb/summary:

You don't need a weapon when you were born one.

Kenna was born to be that weapon, one that was sold to the highest bidder without a moment's hesitation.

Her life is full of twists and turns, where failure is unacceptable. Every visit to the arena brings death and suffering, sacrifice is all she knows. Havencrest is the event of a lifetime; a marriage proposal with a twist.

Twenty-four girls, one prince, and an arena to decide the Champion.

In a game of fire and smoke, who will claim it all?

Nanzee (nanzee_jay) Ohhh I have a Reedsy story too. https://blog.reedsy.com/short-story/i...


Alpha : ♡ Senior Year ♡ (desiebookie) So, I'm quite young to be writing myself and I'm really insecure when it comes to my writing but, I've decided to share one of my progress works with you guys. Please feel free to tell me what you think so far and don't be afraid to give me advice on what you think!

Just gonna copy paste the description on here:

In a world ruled by dragons, things are never as they seem.

As everything falls apart from the War, Shadow plans to go on her first mission to earn her full name. When her leader calls and offers an assassin mission, Shadow accepts. But, after things turn wildly unexpected and she meets a young hybrid--Shadow starts to wonder if she can end the war, or if she’ll die trying like the rest of them.

Wave, a Moon-Ocean Hybrid, ha always felt like he was useless and a waste of space. As he tries to escape the Moon Tribe he runs into Shadow, and the Sun Dragons trying to kill her. Wave helps her escape, but in doing so he ruined any chance he had to leave. To his surprise, Shadow is the first to actually be nice to him and after several encounters, they team up.

Will they be able to end the War? Find acceptance among their Tribes? Or will they find themselves overwhelmed and outnumbered?


message 27: by Dana (new)

Dana T (prestoreads) | 15 comments Here's the blurb for the science-fiction trilogy (first book) that I'm working on.

In the year 2263, millions have fled from Earth in hopes of finding a safer and more sustainable habitat to live. A world not saturated with crippling violence, crime, hatred and corruption. And for many Earthlings, Twelvedawn was that peaceful and scenic retreat whose villages hearkened back to simpler and friendlier times.

Jevoa was born on Twelvedawn, but his parents were an interplanetary couple, and as a result Jevoa as well as hundreds of other children have inherited special powers as a result. Children who possess special powers on Twelvedawn, however, are immediately imprisoned to be sterilized of their abilities. Jevoa however is lucky to be found by a truck driver who smuggles him out of the compound and into a family that gets to enjoy the pleasures of freedom. But as he grows up and teams with other Special escapees Shek, Trillif and Shelaiah who attempt to live among normal humans, he realizes that navigating life with concealed powers is not just one little secret. Twelvedawn very well manifests all the nightmares Earthlings dreamed of escaping. Lurking around every corner are threats of deportation, manipulation, and execution from various authorities who want to either rid the world of Specials or abuse their power.

message 29: by Quinley (last edited Jan 22, 2022 01:36PM) (new)

Quinley (Phoenix_Bluefeather) (phoenix_bluefeather) I am going to share the descriptions for the three stories I am currently writing.

Here is the one for The Mystery of the Body Thief :
Horatio wakes up from being in a coma, but he doesn't remember anything that happened before he fell into unconsciousness. All that he remembers is a name, "Annabelle!"

Also... Detective Inspector Time finds himself having to solve a case without Lady Annabelle.
Murders have been happening throughout many different kingdoms, and no one knows who exactly is behind it all.


For the sequel to The Mystery of the Body Thief (This is currently unfinished):
It seemed the wedding would end happily, the rulers of Dragon's Province and [insert kingdom name] hoped it would. But, the wedding takes a dark turn and Annabelle has to find a way to find the real murderer and prove that she is innocent.

At the same time war is brewing between the elves and dwarves. And Dragon's Province becomes one of the elvish kingdoms caught up in it.


And here's the one for my Gothic novel, Dolls of Wax, Eyes of Glass :
Maltida Moore was found dead at the castle, her brother, Felix, is missing. No trace of him was found except an eyeless wax doll made in his likeness. What happened at the castle is unknown, but it is as if something evil is lurking within it...something evil is causing these terrible events to happen.

You're a really great writer; I loved The Secret Library of Ishikawa!


message 37: by [deleted user] (new)

I dont really know the name but I’ve written (and am putting off editing) a book which I’m calling Light.
It’s about this world where everyone has magic- air, earth, water, fire, light or shadow- and the main characters are
Luella- 13-can do allllll the types of magic (only one person in a few generations can)
Ivy-13- Luella’s ‘sister’. Fire Mage (they’re called mages)
Ash-12- orphan- Carries a curse with her- light mage
Rowan- 13- shadow mage- only a few don;t have darkness that will take over their soul. They’re all 13/12 bc thats how old i was when i wrote it. Basically the enchantress of light is the ruler of the land called Incantare and her brother is evil and meant to be dead but he’s trying to kill the enchantress and all the main characters are, for some reason or another, enlisted to stop them. Along the way they meet people that want to help and hurt them, discover that ivy and Luella are not, in fact, twins like everyone said, and bond with a dragon. I’m in the process of writing the second book, Shadow, when the dark mage- the enchatress’s brother- takes over. I have only got like 10 chapters in though.

I’m also writing another book called A Thousand Dreams, its about Willow, a 13 year old girl with the power to walk in peoples dreams and she’s in a car crash and goes into a coma where her grandmother saves her by sacrificing her own life. The book is about how Willow deals with her loss as well as figures out her grandmothers parting wish- that she use her powers to help others. I’m actually surprising myself hile writing this because I WAS NOT expecting to give Willow a dead-at-birth twin sister who now talks inside her head.

I have plans for soooooo many other books like one about this girls best friend who suddenly turns on her and exposes all of her secrets and a girl who was raised by crocodiles.

All my books will have this in common: the main character will be a girl the same age as me at the time of writing, and the book (well except Light) will be an expansion of worries and fears that I have in my life.


Idk that might be a bit too much info so if it is sorry but other wise yeah

Kagehina_Lover (〃^▽^〃) | 22 comments Hi guys!

My story is about two boys from opposing kingdoms who were unexpectedly flung together, and need each other to re-build their lives. The story centers around their growth as well as their friendship and relationship.

I'll update you guys on my progress, and I hope to get it published. I have everything planned out perfectly...in my mind. So, it's totally reliable. Yep.

This is my first time trying to write a book in first person. Third person is what I usually use to write, but first person turns out to be pretty cool too!


message 47: by [deleted user] (new)

Having done both, which do you like better? I may want to try a first person!


Kagehina_Lover (〃^▽^〃) | 22 comments Sydney wrote: "Having done both, which do you like better? I may want to try a first person!"

Third person is definitely more descriptive, and maybe even more professional.

First person is more causal and fun. I would say that I like third person better, but first person is the kind that would be better if you're trying to do the causal tone.


message 49: by [deleted user] (new)

that makes sense. my WIP is third person, and i thought it would be fun to try something new! i'm sure your doing a fantastic job with your book so far!!


Kagehina_Lover (〃^▽^〃) | 22 comments Hi guys!

MY SECOND CHAPTER IS DONE!!!

- Title of chapter: "A Shock to the System"
- POV: First Person
- Main character: Ash
- Word Count: 1,985
- 7 minute read
