Stories that blaze through the dark
Stories are not content. They’re home.
Writing isn't something I do. It's something I am.
Welcome to Flagrare, my home for original short stories and serial fiction—worlds where monstrous gods wake, eggs choose their bearers, and ordinary people are forced to do impossible things. Expect myth-tinted sci-fi, cosmic horror, and apocalyptic epics told in sharp, cinematic chapters.
Here you’ll find:
Standalone short stories (weird, wonder, and dread).
Serials set in shared universes—like the kaiju/supernatural saga behind Ghost Egg.
Bonus notes & worldbuilding ephemera (lore fragments, “field reports,” story playlists).
Why subscribe
Read new fiction first. Subscribers get stories and chapters delivered straight to the inbox.
Follow the universes. If a story spawns a series (it will), you won’t miss the next arc.
Support the work. Your subscription keeps the lights on so I can keep telling bigger, stranger tales.
Publishing cadence
New short fiction or a serial chapter most weeks, with seasonal breaks to outline the next arc. (When a series is hot, expect faster drops.)
Start here
New? Read the latest short story to taste the vibe.
Into apocalypses, kaiju, and chosen-by-egg powers? Jump into the Ghost Egg universe: start with the prologue, then follow the numbered chapters.
Prefer one-shots? Look for posts tagged Standalones.
About the author
I’m Flagrare—a Brazilian writer and narrative designer who believes nothing connects people more than stories. I split my time between fiction and narrative design for games, and I document parts of that journey elsewhere on Substack, too. theignitionblueprint.substack.com
I’ve been publishing stories online for years, including on my fiction site, and I keep expanding these worlds here on Substack.
“Flagrare” means “to blaze”—a good verb for stories meant to leave a mark.
Free vs. paid
Free subscribers get most stories and all announcements.
Paid subscribers get: early chapters, bonus interludes, behind-the-scenes notes, and occasional polls that nudge what hatches next.
