This is absolutely discontinuous nonsense

This was the story of the Wannabe Webnovelist Team (aka WW) who slaved over writing for five years and did not receive a single reader, only to discover that the person responsible for the final edit and publishing in the Wannabe Webnovelist writing team never actually published anything. He had only uploaded everything to the drafts. Sit back and relax (or not) as you try to figure out which character has written which paragraph or chapter. Not to mention working out how many people are actually in this team - this may fluctuate. The WW team's rules in this novel are that once a chapter has been published, no one in the team can edit it. (NB: all the characters in this work are fictional and while any resemblance to real life people are not entirely coincidental - no insults are meant. This is a completely tongue in cheek, rubbish piece of nothing. Yes, you read that right. If you find this as nonsensical as the author(s), then 'high five!' You are on the right page.) Also, has this story really been discontinued? Wait and see... because if it really has been discontinued, we hope the readers enjoy being left hanging on the cliff edge - or just hanging, cos there's nothing wrong with just hanging about. Addit Oct 2023: WW is on a long break. Who knows if they'll ever get back together or come back (in fact, I doubt they will ever return - I think they've given up). Therefore, you will receive random short stories instead. This is now truly discontinuous nonsense. Enjoy. If you don't like one story, you can now switch to a different one via the contents page. Yay.

Whispers of the greywood

Whispers of the Greywood follows the chilling journey of Elias, a reclusive lumberjack living in isolation with his ailing mother on the edge of a mystical forest. After a disturbing encounter in a dark tunnel beneath his family’s cabin, Elias finds himself thrust into a nightmarish reality where the forest’s ancient power begins to consume everything around him. As he navigates this grim and haunting landscape, Elias uncovers the truth about his lineage—that his father was not a mere man, but an elemental force, a part of the very forest itself. With his father’s sacrificial transformation, Elias is thrust into the legacy of the forest’s guardian, its bloodline now running through his veins. The villagers he once knew have become twisted, corrupted by the forest’s dark influence, and their existence now serves as a warning of what he could become. Now faced with his own transformation, Elias struggles between accepting his new, terrifying powers and the horrors that come with them. As the forest’s voice calls to him, the line between human and nature blurs, and Elias must make a choice: to embrace the power and fulfill his father’s legacy—or to fight against it and risk losing himself forever. A dark and atmospheric tale of family, sacrifice, and the primal forces of nature, Whispers of the Greywood explores themes of identity, the blurred boundaries between man and nature, and the terrifying consequences of embracing ancient power.

The Codex of Black Fire

The Codex of Black Fire In a secluded community in eastern Nigeria, a sinister darkness spreads—witches of ancient lineage have returned, their power growing with every soul they claim. Amid the whispers of cursed winds and burning shadows, Amarachi, a sacred vessel chosen by the gods, bears the burden of her people's survival. Bound by prophecy, she is the community's last hope—but her strength comes at the cost of love, freedom, and a future of her own. Enter Alaric Voss, a brilliant but emotionally scarred European scientist drawn to the village by reports of unexplained phenomena. Driven by both scientific curiosity and a need to escape his past, Alaric becomes entangled in forces far beyond logic. When he meets Amarachi, a mysterious, commanding woman with a fire in her eyes and secrets older than time, the boundary between science and the supernatural begins to blur. As ancient sigils burn and chemical weapons laced with magic are forged, Alaric and Amarachi must navigate a sensual spiritual bond that neither fully understands nor can resist. While he prepares for war guided by cryptic visions, she fights the pull of love, fearing it will unravel the sacred duty she was born to uphold. Together with Chima, Amarachi's once-promised protector and now loyal ally, they stand on the edge of a battle that could either purge the land of evil—or doom it forever. In The Codex of Black Fire, forbidden love, ancestral power, and scientific defiance collide in a tale where the heart and spirit must unite to overcome darkness.
