It was sometime in autumn, though what month I can’t quite recall. We still lived in the old house in my hometown where I grew up, before the extra burden of housing my second-oldest brother and his family overwhelmed my parents and started our string of moves. The house had been built in the earlyContinue reading “Autumnal Spirit: A Short Story”

Canvas: A Short Story
Maybe I’m the only one, but I’ve been missing Rokkoh and his world lately. A few months ago, this character idea came to me as I was trying to fall asleep. I got through the first few paragraphs but hit a roadblock and then let this story sit for a little while. I wasn’t sureContinue reading “Canvas: A Short Story”
The Dominicus Tales: The Fall: A Short Story
Happy Saturday, readers! This week, we have a short story I wrote back in 2014. It had stemmed from a writing prompt where you had to include a pre-determined sentence. There are other short stories featuring Dominicus and Ronald, but I have yet to finish them. Perhaps in between chapters of Incinerate I will revisitContinue reading “The Dominicus Tales: The Fall: A Short Story”
Beverly & Dominic: A Short Story

I wanted to try something a little different than my standard fare, so I came up with thisContinue reading “Beverly & Dominic: A Short Story”

Enter this piece. No clue where this will go for the time being, since Incinerate is still myContinue reading “The Secret Keeper: A Short Story”
Teddy the Bear: A Short Story
Fun fact: I wrote a children’s story once. Back when I played The Sims 3 all the time, most of my characters were writers. It let me live vicariously through them during a time when I did not write as much. One of these characters wrote a series of children’s books called Tony’s Toys. YearsContinue reading “Teddy the Bear: A Short Story”
The Act: A Short Story
Hey there readers! So sometimes in the editing process you have to trim the fat. And sometimes, there’s a whole lot of fat. The story I’m sharing this week was a lot longer in its first draft. It ties in with another project I had been working on, so the other (roughly) two-thirds of itContinue reading “The Act: A Short Story”
