Trapped by Lucinda Pebre
Being born into crime has its difficulties. In order to save her brother and herself, Stacey must enter a hotel belonging to her family's main competitor.
Stacey is a thief, but this job is different—the stakes are higher. She is forced to steal in exchange for her brother's life. When she finds an injured wolf, she discovers there's more in the universe than she has ever known, but now she has to choose whether to risk all or let the wolf die.
White Mountains Manifestation by Tracey Byrnes
Three teenagers. A hike in the White Mountains. And a moose…
What could possibly go wrong?
A lot…especially when ancient magic enters the mix.
Black Magic Mafia by Tim Bischoff
When black magic and organized crime combine to create designer drugs, it's a recipe for tragedy.
The local sheriff’s office is outgunned and outmanned, leaving the community vulnerable.
Is there anyone the sheriff can call for help?
Jed is unique. Born of legend and trained in war, but these days bounties pay the bills.
When people in his community start to suffer, there will be a reckoning!
Just A Little Magic by Kat N Snow
Talents are funny things. Some have them very strongly, and others have just a bit. Mostly it depends on what you do with them. Do these girls have enough?
A Confluence of Metal and Magic by TR Cameron
Dark magic arises in yet another city, and a new team of agents assembles to fight it.
Combat significant. Magic less significant.
Who better to lead them than no-nonsense, highly experienced Agent Diana Sheen?
It’s a new gig in a new town with a mostly new crew.
Troll Tales by Mandi F
What happens when mischievous, fun-loving trolls get caught up in something bigger than themselves? When things are a-changin’ and mysterious goings-on are afoot, follow this determined and adventurous trio to the answers they seek.
We all know what curiosity did to the cat, but who can help themselves when it seems like it’s the right…well, really, the only thing to do?
All In A Day’s Work by Lisa Frett
Stephanie and Trig are in a hurry to find and stop a psychotic and murderous gnome.
The gnome Pembroke is tired of working for the Light Elves in their library on Oriceran. He finally has what he needs to leave his misery behind and bring his own form of misery to the planet Earth.
Will Stephanie and Trig find him in time? Or will the humans of northern Vermont be in danger from the murderous little bugger?
With the help of two child ogres, the witch Stephanie and her wizard partner Trig must find and stop psycho-gnome Pembroke before he turns northern Vermont into his killing ground.
Southwest Style by Craig Lewis
Poverty and lack of opportunity can lead to a vicious cycle. Lack of local opportunity compels anyone seeking better to seek it elsewhere. This is particularly true when such individuals were in fact exceptional enough to be noticed even among bigger fish in a big pool. Those who choose to remain with their roots and protect and guide those who would otherwise be forgotten can well be considered heroes.

About the author
Lucinda Pebre
9 books3 followersLucinda Pebre is my author-name. Lucinda because it begins with an ‘L’ like my real name and makes it easy for Mariëlle Smith, the co-presenter of our Diving into Writing podcast. She calls me Lou or Lu, so she doesn’t have to remember that I have two names.
Once I started writing, the story flowed out, and at the end of seventy thousand words, I had the sort of novel that I couldn’t have given away. For me, some aspects of writing are intuitive and easy, but others require effort and study. When those two aspects came together, I started to write fiction that people wanted to read. Nobody will ever see my first two novels while I’m alive. I loved every moment of writing them, and they taught me a lot, but they lacked structure and subtlety. Today, writing a novel is a different experience. It is as much hard work as joy, but the result is something others can enjoy. Of course, I’m still learning and wouldn’t want it any other way. Each novel should be better as I understand more about both me and the writing process. It doesn’t stop me from searching for an easier path, the one that probably doesn’t exist. If you are a writer, you might be interested in the Diving into Writing podcast. Mariëlle Smith, Writing Coach and Author and I record an episode every fortnight.
I started publishing stories by writing Fan Fiction. Fans know what they like and can be brutal in their feedback. You can find my short stories in the anthology, Tales from the Kurtherian Universe: Fans Write for The Fans: Book 3, and Tales from the Oriceran Universe: Fans Write for The Fans: Volume 1 (Oriceran Fans Write For the Fans).
At this time, I was working on stories in my Barathrum Universe and quickly followed that by publishing a novella. I put this on hold when I got the excellent opportunity to co-write space opera in the Cadicle Universe with the fabulous Queen of Space Opera Amy Duboff.

A great addition to the Oriceran universe
Eight fantastic new tales inspired by Martha Carr and Michael Anderle’s Oriceran universe.
These stories come to you from the minds of fellow Oriceran fans who not only loved the books but had their own stories to add and the fortitude to “push the button” and put them out for the world to see. These are all well written stories that made it through the gauntlet of over 500 votes from other fans to be judged worthy of publication. These tales are guaranteed to entertain you as well as open further possibilities of what can happen when a magical world merges with the mundane.

A group of shorts that flit around the hinterlands of the Oriceran universe
Good short stories of characters that would pass the main characters in the Oriceran worlds. Good good guys, confused and threatened kids and vile vilans. All interesting tales told by fans of the franchise.
Have FUN!

Magic Rules!
It was great to step back into the Oriceran Universe again. So many different magical people and creatures! If you like fantasy and magic, this standalone book is for you! And as a bonus, the authors here are fans of the original books about Oriceran and have been given the chance to write these short stories for the rest of us. Definitely a great read!

Better than expected, actually blew my expectations out of the water!
Every story was a solid 5 in my book! When you put it all out their and write an outstanding short story you have rocked out. I hope all of you make your hobby a reality. I see that at least two of the writer's have moved up and are so writing at the foots of the masters!

Great contributions
I have always loved short stories compiled from fans about certain characters, universes, and just other interludes about existing series. This compilation has eight wonderful short stories based entirely on the wide and wonderful imaginations based in the Oriceran universe. I would love to see most, if not all, made into its own book!

really liked lisa frett story, felt the rest were badly derivative and counting on what was partly sucessful with this world, at least in part at one time, what's in a name depends on what is being talked about.

To me the two best were the 1 book and the book on the trolls. Both books left me wanting more.

Fan writing rocks!
I'd already read about FBI Agent Diana Sheen when I found out about this book. I can see the possibilities in other stories too. Keep writing, people!

Fan-Fic Rules!!
All the short stories were well written and edited. They are nice teasers for the various story lines. I would like to see these characters again.
