    Summary

    When broken down, humanity's primal ways of living consists of two groups:

    Those who love despite their trauma, and those who capitalize on it.

    Are people permanently cursed into these groups in childhood, or can they be saved by the right person? Or ruined?

    Which of the two gets you through a zombie apocalypse?

     
    In a race against time to save his best buddy, Ellis, a young Georgian mechanic, finds himself on a burning rooftop with a coach, a producer, and a gambler. The strangers could not come from more different backgrounds, breeding constant tension amongst them as they are forced to band together for survival on their spontaneous journey to the last city standing: New Orleans.

    While the mechanic quickly becomes the morale booster of the four, the skeletons in his closet weigh him down and put the team at risk until he finally decides whether to face his traumas head-on... or lose everything to them.

    On the other hand, Nick is an opportunistic man, designed to die at the hands of his own regrets, until Ellis tests the inevitability of his fate.

    Summary

    Judge a man by how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.

    Ellis is made of tougher stuff than most. He doesn't have the privilege of being born with a body that feels totally right. He considers himself a trans man. He grew up in the South, learned young to stay quiet and only speak when spoken to. It was fine by him, he didn't like the way his voice sounded back then anyway. But today he's learned that raising his voice is the best way he knows to show others like him that in his world, you are a completely normal and sane human being just like everyone else. Ellis doesn't always keep such a cool head, especially when he's off his meds. And the apocolypse doesn't make it easy to fill your prescriptions. So Ellis ends up losing his temper when he finds Nick in a precarious situation.

    Summary

    The girl on the bridge is calling to him…
    Slowly losing his mind in military custody while awaiting the sinister fate offered to all carriers of the infection, Ellis breaks free in pursuit of the last, real thing that gave him hope – setting off a chain of events that can never be undone. With danger around every corner and little more than a wing, a prayer and a ton of guns, he’s about to learn the true meaning of survival.
    Half drowned. Half dead. Fully alone.
    All that stands between Zoey and certain death are four inches of steel and her resolve. Suffering from an excruciating injury and her companions long gone, her time is running out. With chances of rescue slim and little reason to hope, it’s literally do or die.
    They thought they were safe. They were wrong.
    Sold a lie of safety, the survivors slowly realise that the very people who rescued them are, in fact, their greatest enemy. When a breakout leads to their military compound becoming overrun, Coach, Rochelle and Nick flee together to paradise.
    But in the islands lurks a dark and terrifying secret beyond any of their imaginings. And a countdown, with the promise of total destruction, has begun…

    Summary

    The world ended, and Ellis McKinney fell in love.

    A Southern mechanic with a tender heart and a haunted past. A sharp-tongued conman with emerald eyes and a talent for leaving. Thrown together by the zombie apocalypse, Ellis and Nick find a kind of love neither of them expected—but surviving the end of the world is easier than surviving each other.

    From first kisses in safehouses to whispered promises under the stars, The Tortured Savannah Department follows their fragile, messy, impossible love across cities in ruins and rooms still echoing with memory. It's a story about choosing each other—again and again—until one day, one of them doesn’t.

    This is a tale of heartbreak and devotion, of religious guilt and reckless tenderness, of staying, and of leaving. It’s about the boy who only breaks his favorite toys—and the man who never wanted to be one.

    Summary

    Combining the forces of my special interest with my latest hyperfixation, I created a Pokemon AU of Left 4 Dead.

    So far there's only two chapters about how Ellis and Nick met their Pokemon partners (seen in the tags). I'm currently writing more and plan to flesh this out into a full story involving new legendaries.

    Summary

    Inspired by the OTP Prompt:
    "Person A and Person B are having sex, trying to be as quick and quiet as possible. Getting caught could be disastrous considering Person A's spouse is in the next room."

    In this short story, Nicolas Dillon is a married man, wedded to Yolanda. Their bathroom has been experiencing issues lately, specifically the toilet— which keeps clogging up every time they dare to use the flush mechanism.
    After a literal week of waiting for someone to come and fix the damn toilet, Ellis McKinney, a young plumber, is directed to the house.

    Long story short, things get a little heated during his visit.
