Hi! I don’t usually do introductions to poetry posts, but this one is different. It’s a tribute to my favourite game, Destiny. And in this I used the name of some of the exotic weapons from the game and made a poem out of them. Some work better than others, but think it turned outContinue reading “Exotic”

Scraping Stones
Story day has come back around. This week it’s a Sci-Fi story (about 11,300 words long) that is set in space, hundreds of years from now. It’s a bleak take on a possible future, but that’s just the setup for the story itself. Without saying too much I will let you know that everything isContinue reading “Scraping Stones”

Reskin
Hi! OK the title of this one might make you think it’s Sci-Fi, but its not. In fact, I don’t really know what to call it. My best approximation is its crime horror. Can’t say more than that as I could give more away than I wish to and ruin the story. So without furtherContinue reading “Reskin”
Position Irrelevant
The dame was the predator that played the preyEvery word out her mouth was a lie to meNow I question every sentence that was ever spokeConsidering if it was some hope to make me broke Why do people insist on telling lies?Why can’t they just speak their minds?Hate me if you wish, or don’t giveContinue reading “Position Irrelevant”
