A Romance of The Rails Story
Part of the Romance of the Rails universe
George and Jill are teenage kids embarking on a journey separately. But after this trip, will they be together forever? Follow them along as they ride the rails on an adventure of a lifetime. (Please note: the first chapter is a prologue, and preceeds the main story)

A Delilah Story
Yelena Smallbridge has grown up. Unlike her twin sister, she's looking outwards from her adopted family.

Two ordinary suburban wives, Mary and Lisa, both 32, married with young children, have let the wild spark of their youth fade under the weight of routine, motherhood, and predictable marriages. One December afternoon at Starbucks, over lattes and nostalgia for midnight skinny-dipping and reckless adventures, they dare each other to reclaim that fire. The challenge is simple, secret, and dangerously addictive.

A Swarm Cycle Story
Last we knew, the Tuull tasked Michael and THE harem to build a new, experimental colony. Getting ready becomes even more interesting when additional Tuull AIs arrive on the scene. Based in Thinking Horndog's Swarm Cycle, this story builds upon prior harem tales and won't be easy to follow unless you've read them. A special thanks to lordshipmayhem who gave me so many ideas about the Tuull, and to Anne N. Mouse who let me build on her story - 'It's A Helluva Job.' Feedback is welcome. Enjoy!

A story set in the Pinwheel Universe
When a shipment of weapons goes missing on a remote mining colony, Agent Boyd is sent to assess the situation. What he uncovers is a plot to take control of the planet, but during his getaway his spaceship is shot down. Stranded on the planet's moon and with only his survival suit at his disposal, he must find a way back to civilization, all while trying to deal with an unwitting alien companion.

The year is 1899 and England has fallen to the might of Martian invaders. In the torrent of refugees fleeing to Europe is a young woman named Mina Murray. Her fiancé, Jonathan Harker, went missing in Transylvania shortly before the invasion and now serves as her only hope for safety in this war tossed world. Mina and her friend, Lucy Westenra, plan to find Jonathan. Who they find instead may save the world...or doom it. His name...is Vladimir Dracula Tepes!

A story in the world of curious devices and their unusual affects.
It's not easy when you're fifteen, your sister is seventeen, and you come home from town to find her in the garden, in her bikini, sunbathing. "What did you buy?" she asks. "This," he says, showing her a curious mechanical Thing he'd found in a charity shop. And from there all kinds of revelations follow... A coming-of-age story with a few twists along the way. NB: some codes only apply late on, so don't let the codes fool you into thinking everying starts to happen right from the get-go.
