A story in the Zack Masters, PI Universe
Zack is returning from the Vietnam War to follow in his dad's footsteps as a private investigator, and to see if his childhood sweetheart could be the true love of his life. His first case would prove to be a greater challenge than expected. This story was written as part of a challenge to honor the style of Mickey Spillane and his Hammer character. I'm no Mickey, for sure, but I hope my offering is enjoyable.

A Story from The Case Files of Dr. Randall Herringwick
The Doctor rescues a lost love.

A tale of a late teenager taking a part-time job as a temporary postman, and all the unexpected things that arose from it, including love.

This story is a parody of the Encyclopedia Brown mysteries. I'd be the first person to admit that I can't write short two or three page mysteries the way Donal J. Sobol does, but at least I can take his characters, age them a few years, and then put them in adult/sexual situations. This should be a fairly short story for me, and after it's done I'll start working on a new Ben 10 story or another Jason story, but in the meantime enjoy this one.

Tim investigates a 4.7-million-year-old message written specifically for him, discovering seven billion consciousness fragments trapped in quantum agony.

But Meridian races toward a facility containing something worse than The Silence—and 199 similar mysteries await across the galaxy.

Sequel to the story Unfaithful. Wife, Simone, returns home to her husband Jimmy and her daughters, but things have changed. / (Reviews)
