The universe is a very strange place. It will take even stranger heroes to save it.

"Absurd. Existential. Ridiculous. Tragic. Comic. The antiheroes of "I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room" are a kind of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern with space packs, inadvertently colliding with their destinies against a starry background of witty wordplay. With a vision as sprawling and limitless as the loveably goofy universe in which it's set, Browning's wit, wisdom and heart are always at play, combining to form a wonderfully panoramic and very silly heroes' journey that visits every trope of its overlapping genres and draws moustaches on all of them."

- Marcel St. Pierre, author of "Vengeful Hank" and "Cliché and Wind Go Hitchhiking".

Star's Crossing

{WATTY'S 2020 WINNER & EDITOR'S PICK.} Hopeless romantic and aspiring writer Mare Atwood has fallen madly in love with her childhood correspondent. There's only one catch-she doesn't know who he is. When the beaus of Star's Crossing return from boarding school to begin the courting season, Mare is determined to uncover the identity of her writer, flout her family's intentions of orchestrating an advantageous marriage, and procure the life of writing and romance she's always sought. But as in the tales she so adores, it won't be easy. Galas, masquerades, picnics, and hunts-alongside an old friend, a former teacher, and an unlikely ally, Mare delves into an investigation that leaves her torn between three clever, deceptive, and wealthy young bachelors. If Mare can confirm which is her writer and claim his hand before the courting season ends, she'll have her wish: the love of her life, a valuable marriage, and a future of writing romance. But with the eyes of Star's Crossing upon her, a business plot forcing invisible hands, and the unwillingness of her writer to come forward-Mare's future may not end in triumph, but tragedy.Set against the gilded Victorian backdrop of coastal Connecticut and lush with pre-war luxury, fans of Jane Austen, Margaret Mitchell, and Louisa May Alcott are sure to enjoy this lighthearted, lyrical novel of young love, independence, and identity.#1 Literary #1 YA Romance #1 Victorian #1 Lyrical#8 General Fiction
[BL] Marrying a Disabled Boss [Past to Modern]

Marrying a Disabled Boss [Past to Modern]替婚嫁给残疾大佬(古穿今)Author受受亲爹Status55 ChaptersDescription Xu Xiaoxiao, who came from ancient times, has traveled through. The mysterious patterns at the corners of his eyes are exquisite and gorgeous, and he is not a modern person at first glance. Chi Yu's legs were crippled, and her fiancee broke off the marriage. Xu Xiao shivered and said: I, I will protect you, you don't want to eat me. Chi Yu's dead heart froze for no reason. Xu Xiaoxiao washed and cooked for him, rubbed his body, and didn't think he was dirty or annoying. Chi Yu thought that he would never meet such a good person again. It's just that he didn't expect that his little scare brought him more surprises than that. The fiancée came to find fault: Xu Xiaoxiao is a douchebag, ugly and dirty. Later, Xu Xiaoxiao appeared in a well-known international magazine, and the introduction was written as follows: The ultimate temptation of androgyny, the high-level beauty from the mysterious East. Chi Yu: How can he keep his family from going out, wait online, very urgent! Until Xu Xiaoxiao's stomach grew bigger day by day... Chi Yu: ! ! ! Xu Xiao was terrified: I can't hide it, I can't hide it, why don't I run? Chi Yu scooped it back and lay beside his ear, whispering in a low voice from his lover "Don't want to give me a baby? If you don't want to, it's too late. If you enter my devil's house, you can only be my person forever."---NOTE: FOR OFFLINE PURPOSES SO DON'T REPOST MTLED IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THEN IT IS IN POOR QUALITY I DID THIS FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO CAN'T AFFORD PROPERLY TRANSLATED AND LIMITED INTERNET CONNECTION SO PLEASE DON'T CRITICIZE THE QUALITY NOR THE WAY I MTLED IT THANK YOU
ESCAPISM

The pain has always been there since I can remember. From the first time I got picked on by the people I love till now when sometimes I feel like I'm not enough, the pain doesn't feel less and so there has always been a struggle just to be enough, not just for myself but for everyone else-to live up to their expectations. And with the urge to live up to everyone 's expectations came the pain. I struggled deep to come out of that boat but while I was still in that boat, I tried to find an escape. Music, writing and smiling was my escapism. These poems were written most time during my darkest times and I'm out of that boat now. These poems were my therapy and I hope they mean so much to you like they mean to me. Thank you.
