Crybaby Cover Art
As a child, Ellie had a problem with crying. The slightest thing could start her sobbing. Which made her a perfect target for bullies.

But she cured that habit.

At least she thought she had.

Until, as an adult, she finds herself once again in a flood of tears.

Tears that don’t make any sense to her.

Tears that are different to those she’s ever cried before.

Mrs Merkle's Cats Cover Art

Mrs. Mildred Merkle wasn’t the kind of person to change her habits or routine, especially not for the inhabitants of her own home.

As Mrs. Merkle adjusts to her felines’ needs, she comes across a day which is unlike any other.

A day which will fundamentally change her life, if she can figure out what makes today different.
