  • Revolver Recurring

    I wrote this story for a contest. Well, it was the idea for a story I wanted to write, and I squeezed in some references to the contest prompt – which means I didn’t win, get published, or get mentioned, because that’s not really the best way to approach a contest. Anyway, it was a…

  • Lost Witness

    Quick note: this takes place after Ravenshore’s Antimagic, the novel which has just started going up as chapters.

  • 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…

  • 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…
