| The Applicant (July 2006)
(9k) |
Inspired by an old Saturday Night Live skit that I
thought I could improve on. Make sure you see whom you're
hiring. |

What if you were offered your greatest dream?
Would you pay the price? |
|
Christmas in the National Enchanted Forest (Dec 2006) (11k) |
A cute little universe suggested by a writer on the TSA-talk
mailing list in which magic is impringing on our world and zones near
the curtain that links our world and faerie are marked off as "National
Enchanted Forests". Just don't stray off the path. The big
question is, how do they recruit guides? |
| The
Dragon, the Rock, and the Wanderer (Mar 2006) (9k) |
A birthday present for a friend on the TSA-talk mailing
list in which he gets his deepest desire. A little bit of fun
silliness. |
| The Dragon Slayer (April
2006) (8k) |
Have you ever wondered why the dragon always loses?
Could it be their ego? |
| A Faerie Tale (1986)
(26k) |
One of my very early stories. A friend read it and
my attempt at Elizabethan English made him laugh. Oh well. A
physics student takes a vacation in her grandmother's cottage and finds
out the truth about the Faerie. |
| The Great Ruct
Implosion (May 2000) (9k) |
Many years ago one "Jaggers" ran the "Rarely Used
Creature Transformation" writing contest. I ended up entering every
round (and winning half of them). When the contest was over, I
created this little piece inspired by bits from all the other stories.
The RUCT contest archive can be found
HERE. |
| A Happy Hoppy World (Mar
2006) (5k) |
A birthday present for a friend on the TSA-talk mailing
list. Or, a little bit of very silly silliness. |
| How not to be seen (Oct
2006) (8k) |

What happens if you pick on somebody TOO much? |
| A Hunting we will go!

And you thought deer were defenseless victims-- |
| Inspire Me (Nov 2004) (31k) |
A friend ("Equestrian") wrote a story called "You're the
Inspiration". I found it interesting and decided to write my own
take on the idea. A young boy wants to write but is completely
unable to, even though he can easily help others over their writing
problems. What's going on? For more stories by Equestrian,
click on the EQUESTRIAN link to the left under AUTHOR PAGES. |

When performing magic, make sure you have EXACTLY the
right components. |
| Keeping Secrets (Aug 1999)
(12k) |
Werecreatures like to keep their existence secret.
So what do they do if somebody else sees them changing? |
| The Last Dragon (Sep 2003)
(7k) |
After seeing the names of the other stories in the 2nd
round of Raven's 1000 Words contest, I had a flash of inspiration and
wrote this. Beware the ending! To see the other entrants,
and the inspiring picture, go
HERE. |
| Melash... (1993) (52k) |
Another very early story, this time based on a dream.
Who is this woman? Why must she keep her name secret? And
what happened? |
| The Myth of Beetlecat
(April 2007) (20k) |
A gift, and a tribute, for the wonderous person who made
the arms and head of my costume for me. You can see her work at
Beetlecat Originals. |
| The Perils of
Wereostrichdom (Jul 1999) (17k) |
Why does Mr. Tim Corrigan, who lives alone, have three
orphan children to raise? And why were each of these three
children left on his doorstep? |
| A Rabbit's Life (Oct 2004)
(17k) |
During a chat on IRC, this popped into my head.
What would happen if I suddenly turned into a rabbit? |
| Slip Sliding Around
(Feb 2007) (5k) |
If you're going to transform the world, think about the
results first. |
| Somebody's Watching
(April 2007) (7k) |
A gift for another TSA-list member who likes cartoon
characters maybe a little TOO much... |
| A Walk
in the National Enchanted Forest (Aug 2006) (7k) |
A cute little universe suggested by a writer on the TSA-talk
mailing list in which magic is impringing on our world and zones near
the curtain that links our world and faerie are marked off as "National
Enchanted Forests". Just don't stray off the path. |
| Wereing on the Moon (Feb
2005) (7k) |
A person challenged me to write a story of a
werecreature on the moon. This is the result. Other than the
actual were, it is fairly hard SF. :) |
| Who gets the Dreamers?
(July 2007) (9k) |
This started as a very silly image that begged for a
story. |
| Whom God Destroys (April
2000) (10k) |
An ancient divinity awakens when a pair of humans enter
his domain. He can arise again and dominate the world! Can't
he?. |
