Reflections of a Supervillain
Something a little different for this month’s short. I wrote this story in 2010 for a creative writing class. It went through a group critique and a couple of revisions, but otherwise has not been touched since March 2010. I’m putting it up here, completely unchanged, before even re-reading it myself, to look at and…

New Year, New News
I’m not really one for resolutions, but I have been thinking about my writing and goals, and come to some decisions. First up, there’s no new short today. I have a couple of standalone chapters of a large project that I could post, but they’re rough drafts that very clearly need work and refinement. The…

The Lookout
This short is a chunk of a bigger project I’m working on. Sort of an anthology that tells smaller stories around the central events of the longest D&D game I ever ran. Still experimenting, and I cut a lot before posting – it’s too easy to ramble on this topic. Expect to see this revised…

Oops. New Shorts.
I made the call a while back to keep some things exclusive to my Patreon and some things as early access to later show up here. Recently realized I’d been remembering to post short stories to Patreon, but NOT to also put them up here once the early access period was done. Oops. So two…

Shot in the Dark
“So you can get rid of other people’s ghosts, but not me?” griped Frank in a tone that would sound like he was grinding his teeth, if he had any. “Shut up, Frank,” hissed Kat. “We talked about this. Not at my fucking job.” Kat was waiting in the mid-sized but lavishly decorated lobby of the…

The Nightmare Patient
Wenzi had only just taken her shoes off to sit down when an emergency-coded call came in on her personal radio frequency. “Doctor Wenzi, this is Doctor Braddock, please come in. Urgent.” Wenzi looked around her apartment, regretfully taking it in. She hadn’t had time to appreciate her old fashioned, delicate yet cozy home recently.…

Welcome to Ravenshore
The very short first chapter of a novel goes live on my Patreon tomorrow! Ravenshore’s Nightmare follows Kat, a P.I. who works with ghosts, spirits, and dreams in a black city surrounded by fog and eternal storm. She’s haunted by a ghost trapped in her revolver and by a nightmare that’s already killed her once,…

I’ve launched my Patreon page! Monthly shorts and weekly novel chapters will be free after a one month exclusivity period for subscribers. Weekly minis and 18+ stories are subscriber exclusives. I have ideas on how to expand, if things go well. Check out the page here!

Patreon incoming
I am working on setting up a Patreon! Partly to actually do something with my writing rather than have it sit on a hard drive. Partly to force myself into a bit of a structure for regular updates and variety, rather than just working on whatever I feel like working on. And, of course, partly…

Starfall
With a large edit pass on my fantasy Western complete, and the book series I was reading also complete, it’s finally time to move to a new project (and figure out what to do with that Western draft later). It’s gonna take a lot of work though. “Starfall” was originally going to be my ultimate…
