Sub-lets in Hell, chapter 16.

Here we are again. Have a chapter, and please enjoy:

I sipped the tea given to me; these heathens hadn't had coffee ready, but I could forgive them for having other things on their mind.

Their story was a simple one: These people worked the shipyards, from taking off cargo from ships ...

Soul Fire Sale, chapter 16.

Hello. How about a chapter of SFS? Please enjoy, if you would.

I huddled over, the stink of the place forgotten. There were some very interesting things diagrammed here - and by interesting I meant horrifying. What first seemed like a nature study from an anatomist looking for curiosities h...

Dim Prisons and Drakes, chapter 56.

So, a surprise. I didn't get this one done in time, so I'd appreciate it if you just considered it part of last month's post and went ahead under that premise. I missed it by one day....

Anyway, please enjoy.

The conversation stopped, and multiple sighs resounded across the room.

The poll, November 2025 edition.

Well, it feels like the best month of the year flew by. Hope you all had a good one. Now, for the standard stuff:

It's time to vote on what you most want to see: I take the winner and runner-up, and write those chapters, then write whatever else I can in the remaining time the month affords...

Slasher.

So here we are, the Halloween tale. It's a simple, direct sort of piece. Tell me if you think it works - or doesn't. As always, please enjoy.

I looked around; the office was empty. It was after five, and well after quitting time. Everyone else was already gone for the day, and the light po...

Soul Fire Sale, chapter 15.

Here we are. Halloween story soon, with some luck. But for now, please enjoy this.

The sun was high in the sky, just beginning its downward arc. We were as rested as we'd ever be, having snatched a good four from morning to now. Nothing had attacked us, judging by how clean Loam was.

Sub-lets in Hell, chapter 15.

Here we are, chapter one of spooky season. Please enjoy.

I roared along the road, just a paved stretch of clean sand-blown asphalt that you couldn't really drive when the winds kicked up. It was fine right now though; it was a nice bright day filled with sunshine. The kind of day where anyo...

The poll, horror month edition. (October 2025.)

Here we are. The smell is one of faint decay, the leaves are turning color and falling, the breeze is more dry, and the sun is bright but not as warm. Welcome to the best time of the year!

As you all know, it is time for you wonderful party people to vote on what you most want to see: I tak...

The dreaded reverse, chapter 2.

Here we are. Please enjoy some of the latest thoughts of a person going through a hard and weird time.

Worrying about clothes was never more true. That lady put me through the ringer, and the staring had gotten on my last nerve.

At least she hadn't said anything, and just wrote down ...

Dim Prisons and Drakes, chapter 55.

Here we are. This one is likely the last one of the month I'm working on another chapter, but we shall see how well that goes. Either way, please enjoy:

Finally. The city was huge, and I'd been here before, but the last time D.C. didn't have a wall. The wall was a good twenty feet and looke...

Soul Fire Sale, chapter 14.

Here we go, have this one. Please enjoy.

Walking sucked. This was a true-ism that people could reliably take with them from one life to the next. Any life at all. It was even worse going uphill of course; and even if your body was young and fit, you would feel the burn eventually.

Oli...

Xianxia joint, chapter 2.

Here we are. This chapter is a little light, but it looks like it holds well enough to me; I didn't want to overpack it and cause whiplash. Please enjoy, even if it's something you didn't ask for:

I danced through the moonlight, my form twisting amidst the beams with nary a thought, the lea...

School in Hastelan, chapter 55.

Here we are. Forgive me, I'm ending this one on a cliffhanger of sorts. I might try and write a Halloween tale, I give you warning in advance. For now, please enjoy.

There were many - almost countless. Rank upon rank of knight in bright gleaming armor stood in closed ranks, their horses he...

The poll, September 2025 edition.

Alright, here we are again. The drill:

You wonderful people vote for what you want to see. Every month, I take the winner and runner-up, and write them out. Then I write out whatever else I can, as time and interest permits. If you don't see the story you want listed, click 'other' and wri...

Soul Fire Sale, chapter 12.

Ditto with this one. Please enjoy.

The sun felt good, everywhere my dress wasn't touching. Which was probably too many places on my body, but I couldn't do much about that now; I'd have new clothes tomorrow, or so Amiera had assured me. I wasn't so enthused about the two new dresses I was p...

Soul Fire Sale, chapter 11.

So, apparently this one was just lost. I had this and twelve set to post and they just... didn't, as far as I can tell. Sorry about that. Just look at it as a windfall of sorts, and not me being incompetent as all hell. And of course, please enjoy.

It turned out that Oliver had a talent for...

Soul Fire Sale, chapter 13.

Safe! I made it, and all that. Here we are, poll goes up tomorrow, for now please enjoy.

Well, I had my clothes. They looked a lot like some kind of sith lord from star wars outfit, but I had them. One dyed black, the other a stormy gray, the black one skin tight in all the wrong places, an...

The dreaded reverse.

So. Another thing no one asked for. Something about going to new places and seeing new things just seems to all but force me to consider new ideas, so here we are. I'm still working on the next chapter of Soul Fire for tomorrow, so that might still happen. Yet for now, here we are.

So... I ...

Sub-lets in Hell, chapter 14.

Greetings from the past. I was sure this one would win at least first or second, so I wrote it in advance. I hope you enjoy.

Clay and Karen were both waiting in front of my door, dressed and ready to jog. Only one of the two were awake; the other was fighting off yawns in a track sui...

Xianxia, or new thing.

So, who's up for another thing no one asked for? This seemed to work well for me when I last took a trip, so here we are again. A new for me yet common idea, and one I feel is still woefully under-explored. Please enjoy:

I was so close, I could feel it. I danced, weaving in between the beam...

The poll, gone edition (August 1st, 2025).

Here we are. Setting this up in advance in the hopes the timed release option works.

You all know the drill, but I'll go over it again just in case:

You wonderful awesome and understanding people vote for what you want to see. Every month, I take the winner and runner-up, and write t...

Dim Prisons and Drakes, chapters 6-11.

No you didn't misread that. It has come to my a

Who's hunting Who? Chapter 45.

This one is a bit light, but it ended where it ended and I didn't want to force the word count. I think it works better this way. Let me know how you feel about it, if you feel the urge. In either case, please enjoy.

At last, I wasn't needed to teach directly. Now all that I needed t...

School in Hastelan, chapter 54.

Here we are. Expect one more before I leave, for sure. I'll try for two of course. For now, enjoy this one:

The morning's chill was deep, and the water had a crust of ice held within the basin today. I wished to be back under my blankets already. The heavier robes did little.

No, I wo...

Sub-lets in Hell, chapter 13.

Here we are, first one up. Second one should only be a few days away, but for now please enjoy.

Another day, another dollar, as the saying goes. I put the finishing touches on the last ward, and turned to my new tool, the portable hair dryer. On low, it would dry the ink without cau...

The poll, July 2025 edition.

Moving right along. Alright, you wonderful and erudite people vote for the chapter of the story you most want to see to start, and I write the winner, and a few others on that vote or one that I haven't written in forever or catches my interest. If you don't see the chapter you want, you simply h...

Waifu, chapter 32.

So. Slight update. trip was postponed, so i leave next month, same date. So you got me for another month and ill be gone august.

Have this, the last one of this month. Please enjoy:

The situation was under control, right until it wasn't. The ghosts were prepped and waiting in ambus...

Personal history chapter 39.

It's up, where I normally post such things in order to avoid certain issues.

Sub-lets in Hell, chapter 12.

So, who here wants some Hell? I don't know, think I need to work on that line. Anyway, please enjoy:

The teachers were not in the lounge, of course, how could they be? the thing was blocked off with crime scene tape, of all things. That had to be Karen's doing.

Did I need to touch bas...

Soul Fire Sale, chapter 10.

So, here we are. Post number one, and isn't that weird? I did not expect this one to get more popular than the 'in Hell' series. It's fine though, I like it too. Please enjoy.

I had wanted to sleep for a week... but it didn't happen. Instead, I came to, huddled in blankets and with s...
