Bill and the Whistling Death

|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. *** *This enjoyable story has received a special shout-out from Wattpad Ambassador @RookWri78 for a strong first chapter!* *Bill and the Whistling Death falls under the Wildcard Category--with elements of Historical Fiction, Adventure, Literary Fiction, Drama, and slight Coming-of-Age. There is also a queer side character--just FYI, but it stays quiet because of the time Bill served.* Are you curious about the airplanes we have at Patriots Point?

The Limits of the Gates: Ascension Among Worlds

Fifteen years ago, mysterious portals began appearing across the Earth, unleashing monstrous creatures and plunging the world into chaos. From these gates emerged not only deadly threats but also new races and advanced technologies, forever altering the fabric of human civilization. Kang Hyun-jun, a man who once lived in a mundane, struggle-filled life, awakens in a parallel world after a fatal accident. Gifted with a mysterious "Player System," he discovers he has the ability to grow stronger by hunting monsters and exploring the treacherous portals. But in this new life, nothing comes easy. As he battles both external enemies and the internal struggles of adapting to a perfect family he never had, Hyun-jun must navigate a world steeped in corruption, inequality, and alliances forged between humans and otherworldly beings. Through perilous dungeon raids, evolving monsters, and escalating political conflicts, Hyun-jun rises from a lowly adventurer to a pivotal force in the battle for humanity's survival. As the portals grow stronger and the creatures within more intelligent, Hyun-jun must face the question: can one man bridge the gap between worlds, or will the gates' power consume everything? Packed with thrilling battles, intricate political intrigue, and a deep exploration of human resilience, "The Limits of the Gates" weaves a tale of personal growth, sacrifice, and the relentless fight against the darkness threatening to engulf two worlds.
