no sex - Stories

The 4th Spinoff story from the "Shelter" series, an ex-military officer is forced to race out into the threat of a total social shut down to save his son during the chaos of a zombie apocalypse! Can he get there in time? Or will he lose the one thing that means most to him as the world falls apart?

In the dark future, an unlikely trio in a rundown metropolis are set on a path of unexpected heroism through horrifying trials. For Agrell, Dozi, and Ilya, the harrowing events bring growth through sacrifice and redemption. However, bizarre rituals and arcane arts are commonplace in the world of "The Mantis Variant," and tragedy and death are always close at hand.

"The Mantis Variant" takes place in a QueerNorm world, where no characters need to overcome anything related to their queerness, and no one faces hatred because of who they are.

The New Boot has opened and is operating in a similar fashion to its predecessor. As we would all suspect The New Boot generates new stories, some good and some not so good. This is one of those stories and takes place around The New Boot's first Christmas.

How will he cope with this awesome responsibility now that he has Brandon . . .

This is a collection of my short non-fiction pieces.

It's mostly lightweight stuff, just written to make you smile or laugh.

This collection parallels that of my short fiction on this site -- Circumstances. Also, pretty lightweight.

Enjoy.
