Bill and the Whistling Death

|SEASON 1 OF BILL AND THE WHISTLING DEATH| |6X FEATURED · WATTPAD CREATORS PROGRAM · WEEKLY TO BI-WEEKLY UPDATES| A troubled veteran attempts to forget the past by volunteering at Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum, but it proves difficult when he's close to the plane that changed his life forever--the Corsair. *** Retired Navy pilot William Beckington never planned to move on after The Incident and has lived with the guilt for seventy years. After failed attempts with PTSD counselors, his daughter recommends that he begin volunteering on the aircraft carrier CV-10 in Charleston, South Carolina. Reluctantly, Bill agrees, but his decision proves difficult when he stumbles back into the world of Corsairs, the plane he'd rather forget. Seeing that The Incident still haunts him, Bill's new friends attempt to help him remember his long-lost joy; he attends Bulldog Tours, learns the stories of other veterans, and strangely finds himself near the Corsair more than he would like. While nothing will free his mind from the traumatizing Incident, Bill must find a way to push past his grief and guilt to live the life he is meant to live--and rekindle his best friend's legacy before he succumbs. *** *There is a queer side character in this story, but it remains relatively quiet and is not the story's primary focus.* *Genre: Wildcard (elements of Historical Fiction, General Fiction, Mystery, Adventure, Drama, and Coming-of-Age)* Are you curious about the airplanes we have at Patriots Point?

She-Swine

As a girl, Olive loved fantasy. Reading it, writing it, building her world, making it a place she could wrap around herself. A world of bold knights, dashing princes, and cunning sorceresses, it spoke to her in a voice that soothed and excited her, all at once. It told her that a life could be more meaningful, more magical, than the one she was stuck with. As an adult, Olive loved money. Fantasies only last so long, and after her attempt at an epic flopped, she changed tack. Pursuing a career in marketing, she clawed her way up the corporate ladder, throwing off any poor fool that barred her way. But ambition paints a target. Just as she reached the top, becoming CMO of her agency, the bill came due. She never saw the flash, barely felt the bullet, but it ended her climb, right quick. If the curtain fell there, it would have been a fitting coda. A life ruthlessly lived, ruthlessly ended. Then she woke up. But not in the hospital, not at home. In a lush green countryside, by a familiar townscape, brine on the air... ...in the body of a pig girl?! The lowliest of the low, in all of her stories! With no status, magic, or even rights! She might as well be an NPC in a video game! Trapped in the world she wrote as a girl, she must cope with her new reality, leverage her dormant knowledge, and carve whatever path she can. But this world is not as she remembers it. Why is the bold knight such a brute? Why is the dashing prince a cruel princess? Why is the cunning sorceress a ruthless tyrant?! And why are truffles so addictive, all of a sudden?! At least two chapters a week!
