Stories

Jesse and Marty are getting to know each other, and their new world together. Neither have ever had a friend quite like the other. It's a voyage of exploration, and both of them are having fun along the way. Fun, and other stuff. Sometimes the other stuff is what it's all about.

A story of compassion.

An old short story I wrote that you may enjoy :)

Cooper is an accomplished 15-year-old young diver. With his friend Sebastion and crush Elliot, they make the perfect combination for the regionals. Yet what starts as a routine practice drill at the rec center turns into an evening of terror when a series of strange occurrences lead to the boys fighting for their lives. Will they make it out alive? Will they defeat what is stalking them. Who knows. Can Cooper step up to the task to show his crush his bravery? Well, let's find out, shall we?

Jesse and Marty are still moving along on their voyage of discovery - which just keeps getting bigger, and wilder, and...well, stranger. But that's okay, because they're having fun, and they're learning a lot. And they're together, which has come to mean a lot to both of them. It's about discovery, right?

And, this time around, about being discovered, as well.

This story is autobiographical in nature, but I have made some modifications to protect the identities of those included in it. All the names have been changed, and in some cases things such as gender, locations, and sometimes familial compositions have been altered.

All that being said, this is MY truth, and it's time I released it so that I'm free to create from a place other than brokenness and sadness.

This will be dark, but there are spots of light in the great black. No void is truly empty when one gazes into it. The light from our eyes illuminates more than we realize.

A short story about best friends.

A gritty story of a casual meeting that turns into more than you might expect. You'll meet Rex, a real estate agent, Joe, a new-to-town out of work welder, and watch as people and events occur that shape their lives. You'll have a first row seat to a story that reflects adult situations, adult language, sex--and personal development--as well as a fun approach to life.
