I've been submitting stories here now for a few years, and I'm hoping to one day expand from the realm of free stories into paid pieces of fiction. I've had some success with two of Halloween story contests here, and love to write an assortment of fiction. I hate being a one-trick pony, but I will admit, many of my stories fall into the "love story" or "romance" category. I'm not a stroke-story writer, but rather, I like to develop my characters into people you could (in theory) meet on the street & have a conversation with.
