I'm just going to list out some of my ideas here because I like having my ideas written down, and if anyone wants, I'd love to know which ones sound most interesting to you. I tend to work on projects that have more interest in them.
Sequels to Currently Available Works
Anitreh Series - Book one, Redemption, is complete and available on Wattpad and FictionPress. The Anitreh are humans with special abilities. While they normally use these powers for the good of the rest of the world, not everyone feels this way, and some can't even agree on what's for the best. This series follows Darius Laporte and Nikita Sokolof, two Anitreh who are attempting to figure out who is in the right and which side they're on. In the process, they uncover many secrets and just maybe, they can save the world.
Werewolf Series - Book one, Howl, is complete and available on Wattpad and Fictionpress and book two, Poison, is currently being posted on both sites. The series is focused on several members of the Mile High Pack and their mates, while also dealing with the stresses of running a pack and simply being a werewolf while fitting in with human society. The third book in the series, Dream, is focused on the pack's beta wolf, Jason Hammel. Jason is gay and in the closet, and when he finally meets a man he actually wants more than a quick fling with, a woman claims that he is her mate. While Jason struggles with wondering if she really is his mate and he simply feels nothing towards her because of his orientation, he spends more and more time with his boyfriend and the pack is put under pressure because of Jason's absence. Book four, Sacrifice, is about Sophia Colton, the pack's alpha. She takes her oath to defend her pack very seriously and when the pack is threatened by another group of shifters, she's ready to do whatever it takes to protect the pack. Even if it means losing her mate.
Mystic Woods - This is a short story I wrote for a contest, but I want to write two other stories related to it. One to tell how the story of how Raytur and Setiri met and initially fell in love, and how he became cursed. The second would take place a year after Mystic Woods when Setiri tries to meet Raytur again and bring about a conclusion to the story. I have not yet decided whether this story will have a happy or sad ending.
Flames of the Free - Another story I did for a contest. This one is basically about class warfare and how the peasants try to fight back against the rich after suffering cruel treatment for so long. I want to write the story of the continued fight for freedom.
New Stories and Series
Burning Flame (or maybe I'll change the name to Through the Flames) - This is a fantasy novel. Humans call non-humans demons, and in general, are terrified of them and think they're murderous monsters. When one of these so-called demons is sneaking around a human city, a human stumbles upon him, and he ends up taking her back to his "demon" city. While stuck with him, she learns a lot about the "demons" and the man who took her. While some of his qualities are decidedly unattractive, she can't help but see all his positive attributes as well. Over time, they become fond of one another, and she doesn't want to leave, but he has a goal in mind, and that doesn't leave time for him to spend with her. There are two other books in this series, which will also be about their relationship, but also with a strong focus on the chaos in the world around them and how they deal with that.
Trollmance - Haven't named this one yet, but it's like all the werewolf/vampire romances. But with a troll. I'm thinking either a male troll and a female human are taking classes to prepare them for the GED test and they meet there, or the girl is on a camping trip in the woods, and that's where she meets him. Not so sure on the details yet. Basically, all I have is a troll romance.
Historical fantasy epic series - I've been thinking about this for a while, and it'll be a series of several books. There will be one book that'll serve as a prologue to the rest of it - it'll introduce the world and a very important character. From there, there'll be several storylines to follow until they all come together in the final book or two. I'm calling it historical fantasy because while it takes place in a fantasy world, I'm going to pull things from history and incorporate it. So there will be something like the Byzantine Empire and cultures like Vikings and Celts. It won't be 100% accurate, nor will I call these groups actual historical names, but they will be based on them.
Historical fiction - I think this will be a shorter piece, but who knows. I want to write a historical fiction about the Varangian Vikings. For this, I'll actually be doing a lot of research so I can have things right, and it'll mostly be an action/adventure piece.
Despair to Mirth - I do have one chapter of this on Wattpad, but it's just sitting on the back burner. It was originally a fantasy romance that detailed the rise of an assassin to a position of power. It became darker and darker the more I worked on it. Now, it's more about overcoming trauma, as both the main characters have had rather traumatic pasts, although the original plot is still in there. There's just more emotions on top of it.
Bound Spirits - This is a very old story that I deleted. But I'm writing it again. It's a fantasy romance, and there's two different story lines. One deals with an abducted princess who was sold into slavery in a distant land, and what happened to her. The other is about the princess' best friend and bodyguard who went after the people who abducted her, but had an accident along the way and lost some of her memories. She meets a man and he tries to help her and slowly starts to develop feelings for her, until the rest of her people arrive and she is reminded of what she needs to do, and is determined to find and save the princess. This does have a sequel that takes place several years later as well.
Okay, I think that's everything for now. I could be forgetting something. If anyone is reading this, let me know if any of it sounds interesting to you.
