One More Before Sleep

Mars Is Hungry

Mars used to mean wonder and possibility. Now, for Addison, it means boredom. Thanks to faster space travel, Mars is no longer a dream—it's a job site. Lacking ambition, discipline, or a college degree, Addison ends up on the Red Planet as a janitor, sent there by his billionaire father to stay out of trouble and out of sight. Life on Mars is dull, predictable, and safely uneventful… until Addison sees something impossible. He isn't alone. Hidden deep below Mars, Nix has been watching humanity for years, waiting for the right moment to make contact. When she finally does, Addison becomes part of a first encounter that is nothing like humanity imagined. Because Mars is not a dead world. It has its own gods. And Mars is hungry.

The 13th Step

There are only twelve steps to the basement. Except for the night a brother and sister count thirteen. What waits beneath the extra step is not a basement, but a vast, torch-lit cavern where wind screams, darkness hunts, and something pulls them apart.

The Tattie Bogle

Rowena plans a quiet weekend alone in the woods. Two nights by a creek, far from roads, noise, and other people. She knows the old stories her grandmother used to tell. Warnings about the Tattie Bogle, folklore meant for children and places that no longer matter.But the woods remember. As night falls, small details begin to feel wrong. Straw where it should not be. A presence on the hill that refuses to move. The growing sense that some warnings are not metaphors at all. The Tattie Bogle is a quiet folk horror story about isolation, inherited fear, and the cost of ignoring old names for old things. It lingers like something standing just out of sight, waiting to be noticed.
