A Christmas Story
Sometimes for the right people Christmas wishes really do come true. Sort of a sequel to 'Heart Condition' featuring many of the same characters. This is a stand alone story but it will be easier to understand the background if you read 'Heart Condition' first (and maybe 'Concordia') / (Reviews)

Many years of peace followed Sean's rescue. Peaceful if you didn't count training, and interference by the Wizard's Council. The Council voted to delay the young Magi joining the Council and required a quest due to their immaturity. They decided to join 'normal' society with their extra time. The Prescott High School would never be the same. They could decide if the unpleasant task of completing the quest and joining the Council was really desirable. Do we always have choices in life?

A Story in the Anthony Carter Universe

A Beach House Story
This is a fictional, coming of age story. A good friend and mentor shared it with me and I wrote it with the goal of sharing some of the lessons he learned long ago. I tried to keep it as close to the true story as possible without compromising the identities of anyone in it. This story tells the first week of relationships that have grown stronger over the years. / (Reviews)
