This week’s story is influenced by Halo. If you know the franchise you’ll probably be able to tell. If not don’t worry it isn’t important other than this is a military sci-fi story. It has a bit of a twist to it too. Not going to spoil it but this is a longer story atContinue reading “Pieces In Play”

Grass Is Greener
OK this one was a difficult one to write. Not because of concept or subject matter but because I just simply struggled with it. I had two false starts. First I got to about three thousand words, then I decided I didn’t like where it was going, deleted half of it, rewrote it back toContinue reading “Grass Is Greener”
Blue Eyes Blind
Story time is here again! I swear I’ve said that more than a dozen times but can only think of so many ways of introducing these posts. Anyway, here is another Sci-Fi story, it’s about 11,300 words, I think it’s more fast paced and I want to see if this goes down how you thinkContinue reading “Blue Eyes Blind”
Finality
Here we have the last in the series of six short stories. This was fun! I do like trying different things now and again. I hadn’t intended to write the last three parts of this series back to back but hey, what happens happens. Aside from that if you want to read everything from theContinue reading “Finality”
Hammer Blow
OK, this week is a continuation from last week. That means the fifth part in the ongoing series. Yippie! Because of that there isn’t much I can say. Best thing to do is, if you haven’t, read the previous parts. Apart from that it’s about 11,900 words long. Enjoy! Having stormed through the doorless openingContinue reading “Hammer Blow”
Rooted
Back again with not only another story (as is usual on a Wednesday) but a fourth part to the ongoing series. If you haven’t read the first three parts they are: Overcharge, Fragmented Friends and Lost Asunder (really hoping these links will work and send you to the right pages). Previously I said I mightContinue reading “Rooted”
Monotony Is Monotone
Hi! Hope you all are well. This Wednesday, as is normal, I have a new story (it’s about 8,200 words). It’s a Sci-Fi story, eventually, but was not written like one. Usually, I know a story is Sci-Fi whereas this one I had to think on its categorisation. Don’t want to spoil anything but theContinue reading “Monotony Is Monotone”
Predatory Jungle Law
Hi! This week’s story isn’t Sci-Fi (I know shocking!). I guess you would call it fantasy. A lot isn’t explained (rather some things are inferred) but seeing as the most advanced thing in the entire story is a sewer, I know for a fact it isn’t Sci-Fi. Anyway, there isn’t much else to say aboutContinue reading “Predatory Jungle Law”
Temporal Foil
Hey everyone! Another Wednesday another story. This week, unsurprisingly, it’s a Sci-Fi story. Not one set in space however. You might be able to guess going off the title what it involves. Still, I elected not to make this story about violence and killing. It could very easily have become that but it’s nice toContinue reading “Temporal Foil”
Lost Asunder
I’m ba-ack! Sorry, couldn’t resist. But it is true. I’m back again with another story post. Lost Asunder is the latest in what I’m calling a series of stories. It follows on from Fragmented Friends. There are a few more ideas I have for this series. Whether I write them or not largely comes downContinue reading “Lost Asunder”
