Now look at their face. Are they happy? Are they sad? Or are they angry? Can you even tell?

How well do you actually know the people closest to you?

Have you ever seen the real person that lies just underneath what you see...?

Meet Me at the Pond:


A long time ago, I believed in magic. I believed that people could levitate a wooden box. I believed that magicians could read minds. I even believed that little white doves could and would actually fly out of a sleek black scarf. I lost my appetite for magic the first time someone broke my heart. Naturally, it was not the first time that I had been heartbroken, but it was the first time that someone took my heart, tore it up, and danced on the little pieces. At that moment, I was no longer "Missy Lawrence: Believer of all things magical." No, no, at that moment, I became "Missy Lawrence: Most likely to fall for it every time."

Ava Michaels used to think she was special. As a child, she fantasized about having magical powers . . . making things happen. But Ava grew up and eventually accepted the fact that her childish dreams were just that, and maybe a normal life wasn't so bad after all.

Now a young college student, Ava meets Caleb Foster, a brilliant and mysterious man who’s supposed to help her pass Physics, but in reality has another mission in mind. What he shows Ava challenges her view of the world, shaking it to its very core. Because Caleb isn't quite what he seems. In fact, he's not entirely human, and he's not the only one.

Together, the duo faces a threat from an ancient race bound to protect humans, but only after protecting their own secrets—secrets they fear Ava may expose. Fighting to survive, Ava soon learns she's not actually normal . . . she's not even just special.

She's a little bit more.

Will Millar

Will Millar is the author of the horror novel, Infernal Machines. The novel has steampunk and noir elements as well, and you can read about it below.

Infernal Machines:


Paulie and Stoner aren’t bad seeds; they’re just a little too smart for their own good. They stole their first car in kindergarten, and as for the homemade rocket launcher in Stoner’s garage … well, it’s best just not to ask.

With 9th grade just around the corner, Paulie and Stoner find themselves on the wrong side of some real bad kids, an older band of w​hite supremacists that go by the name of “Twisted Cross.” When a rumble at a high school keg party turns fatal, it sets off a chain of events that test the limits of Paulie and Stoner’s friendship, and their very sanity.

Welcome to Chapel Harbor, a town where everybody buries their secrets deep, and nobody is quite who they seem. A town where the ghost of a serial killer known as The Junkman is rumored to stalk the woods at night, and where an unassuming magic shop and its mysterious proprietor, Arthur Cardiff, may possess the key to an ancient and terrible evil.

Packed with hairpin turns and twists that will keep you guessing until the very last page, Infernal Machines is a blood drenched, adrenaline fueled, roller-coaster of a horror story that’s at once a paean to the Pulp Horror classics of the early 80’s and a meditation on the enduring power of friendship.

My name is Zarra Jane, or at least that is what I am told. I have no recollection of that name or the face in the mirror. I only know who I am by what I am told by others. I know sociology mandates that one defines self through others—but this is ridiculous. I keep hoping that I’ll wake up from this nightmare.

Genetic Corp X is one of the world's premier tissue and organ cloning centers. Medical breakthroughs of all kinds have originated from the work done at the facility. Zarra Perez was their lead research scientist on her way to curing Alzheimer's disease--until a nearly fatal accident left her with no personal memories or sense of self.

Her father and husband want her to return to the life they say she had before her accident. However, even with no sense of personal identity, Zarra isn't content to allow others to dictate her life while she waits on her memories to come back. In her desperate search to remember show she is, Zarra uncovers the horrible truth about Genetic Corp X. Now she is faced with a moral dilemma that could result in her own death.

Join Zarra in her search for her lost memories and find out what the secret of Genetic Corp X really is!

Life is good…or so Rob and Lauren Henderson think…Until one day, all hells breaks loose as a series of explosions levels the houses around them. The Mayan doomsday has arrived—a year late. Peaceful neighborhood now turned warzone—the earth really is coming to an end! Fearful of the aftermath, Rob and Lauren grab only what’s necessary to survive and head into the mountains, planning to hide out in a cave they discovered over the summer. Just until the chaos is quelled. But those plans go awry when they find their place of refuge already occupied by survival nut Roan Kline. Roan has planned for this day for years. Now all his hard work will pay off. He has built up a fully stocked survivalist cave, complete with food and weapons. He’s even set up a surveillance system that allows him to monitor his hideaway. He never planned to use it for entertainment purposes but hey, who can blame him for watching the couple who’s trespassed on him? After all, it’s his cave. And she’s hot. Fantasies of her, aka Video Girl, have gotten him through some rough times. If only he could bring her with him now, his life would be perfect. When Rob and Roan meet, it escalates to ‘may the strongest and smartest win’…with Lauren as the grand prize. Luckily, Rob has a secret weapon in his wife. Lauren, with her courage, brains, and love, should ensure him the win. Or will it? Who has the skills to win this game? Patience, cunning, and strength—who possesses them, man or woman? The battle for survival has begun.
