A young man, haunted by disease and sorrow, faces his own death and the eternity that lies beyond human comprehension. The only thing giving him the will to live is a mysterious vision, a girl that exists only in his dreams, but the closer he gets to his death, the more the line between dream and reality blurs.
A story in the Dark Wood Universe
A second posting after a complete rewrite, follows Powell on his journey to create a forge of his own. This is a new genre for me and one I'm unlikely to repeat. There will be no sequel. / (Reviews)
Lily, a young teen, is on a journey of sexual discovery involving her best friend and her family, her teacher, and her own parents. I kept going back and forth about whether this was an "incest" or "coming of age" story, but settled on incest because I did not want to surprise readers who don't want to read about that.
A story in the Night of Madness Universe
After the Earth is struck by some kind of radiation from space, some people gain super powers. This is the story of one of them, who at the start is thought to be one of the weakest Super Heroes there is.
Notice, the main character is granted a power to change genders, so the point of view narration may be of a female reliving past memories through the narration of a male.
A Swarm Cycle Story
With AIs watching everything, all the time, how can humans mutiny against a tyrannical, sadistically abusive, Captain? Boats knew Captain Dreck had to die. How? Then, what? My thanks to TrunkMonkey, Doc, the late pcbondsman, Steve, Fred, and Reluctant Sir for their editing, proofing, and altogether making this a better read. Note: A few real people and places inhabit this story, but everything is fiction. Even cited opinions.
