My stories live in the everyday - in the quiet, ordinary moments where family, friendship, and love collide. They’re slice-of-life at heart: realistic, grounded, and woven with the kinds of small details that make life feel real, even when they seem mundane.

I write about characters learning who they are, navigating relationships that can lift them up or break them down, and facing choices that often ripple far beyond themselves. Some stories close on a hopeful note, with growth and connection; others follow harsher truths, where endings can be bitter, even tragic. But no matter where they land, each story is about the struggle and beauty of personal growth, and how we’re shaped by the people closest to us.

My stories are born from my deepest emotions, bubbling to the surface when they demand to be released. The subjects I pursue are as varied as my interests, and I love to explore different genres. Some of my work is dark, some of it is light-hearted, but I never write the same story twice.

Dean Warner Intrigues was my first attempt at writing fiction.

My second story is set in a far distant future, very different than most imagined. Men substantially outnumber women due to genetic tinkering and a blight that decimated human populations with long lasting residual effects.

My latest story is a short story called "Best Friends". I hope you enjoy it.

I'm continuing to work on some follow-up stories but am having some real obstacles. I don't want them to be just more of the same. However, I am enjoying catching up on some of my Amazon e-book purchases over the past couple of years and still read a lot on GA.

David McLeod writes stories set both in a medieval fantasy world and in various Earth-analogues that touch that world from time to time. While admitting a debt to a youth wasted on fantasy and role-playing games, his goal is to bring fresh heroes, villains, and ordinary people into worlds different, but not so different, from our own.

M/M romance with a heavily influence on mental health struggles with HEA. Sometimes featuring: explicit sex, heavy plots mixed with humor, and characters you may not always like.
The goal is to make people feel and perhaps think a little differently.
