Delphie Denise Bookham is dead. She never thought choking would lead to her demise, but here she isโ€”done in by a cheap microwave hamburger. And to make matters worse? Sheโ€™s dressed in her most atrocious pajamasโ€”green fuzzy socks and a ratty t-shirt with a cartoon star saying, โ€œHoney, itโ€™s Time to Sparkle and Shine!โ€ Things canโ€™t get much worse, can they? Oh, they most certainly can. You see, Delphie is all alone (letโ€™s be honest, sheโ€™s preferred it that way until this whole choking thing); sheโ€™s got The Tinder Swindler paused on her TV, and the lone browser tab she […]

Sexy time ensues. Introduce a small conflict or misunderstanding, have a brief yet terrible third-act […]

‘Loathe to Love You’ is comprised of a trio of STEMinist novellas: Mara, Sadie, and Hannah are friends first, scientists always. Though their fields of study might take them to different corners of the world, they can all agree on this universal truth: when it comes to love and science, opposites attract and rivals make you burnโ€ฆ โ– UNDER ONE ROOF โ– A scientist should never cohabitate with her annoyingly hot nemesisโ€”it leads to combustion. As an environmental engineer, Mara knows all about the delicate nature of ecosystems. They require balance. And leaving the thermostat alone. And not […]
