I have set this universe up to be by permission from me. Therefore if you send me a note with Tails of the Fae story in the subject line I will answer you. Only complete stories will be accepted, so be sure to attach a file with your story in it if you have something that you think is ready to go.
Finally, if you want to know the inspiration for these stories, I suggest you read Wen Spencer's Tinker and related stories.
Spring break is just barely large enough that I couldn't paste it to the site. That seems to have caused some problems. I'm attempting to get that straight.
This was a difficult story to write for many reasons. The subject matter and genre are somewhat new to me, but above and beyond that is the fact that I tried to tell this story in the manner of a ball game announcer, that is as it happened.
The truth is that very people tell stories that way. indeed most of the time we tell stories after the events that they cover have occurred. Thus a third person present perspective would read: Joe sits in his chair. He walks to the Dutch Bros coffee stand, and buys a blended mocha.
We usually say Joe went to the coffee shop and drank terrible coffee that made him ill.
