Wednesday story day. Hi everyone! Back again with another short story. Though this is less a story and more the unfolding of an event. It’s a shorter story (about 4100 words) but I think it turned out well. It’s something I wanted to do for a while, but it took me a bit to workContinue reading “Celestial Annihilation”

Ill-Gotten Gains
Here it is everyone, my newest short story. It’s a little under 11000 words. Enjoy! Karim has already stepped off the sky shuttle, which is what passes for a taxi on Orion IV, that has ferried him from the planets main port, Marrec Port, where his starship, Eternal Veil, is docked. He is headed forContinue reading “Ill-Gotten Gains”
The Search
Story day has come round again. This time I’ve got a modern day fiction story for you. No blurb again this week. Didn’t feel that it needed one. It’s another shorter story (at around 5800 words). Hope you enjoy it! Derrick Williams is a middle aged caucasian man who is at this moment speeding downContinue reading “The Search”
Bloody Banquet
Hey everybody! Story day is here again. This time I’ve got a fantasy story for you. There’s no blurb for this one as it was based off a single line I wrote (though I did do an outline before I wrote it). It’s not too long (about 9300 words) and there are no page breaksContinue reading “Bloody Banquet”
Unhinged
Wednesday is upon us so without further ado here is Unhinged. Hope you like it! The bank is locked tight. Not because the working day has come to an end though. In fact, the sun is hours away from reaching its zenith. Instead, the bank is locked for a very different reason. Inside Jeremy MyersContinue reading “Unhinged”
Gunslinger
Wednesday! Story day! Well I dropped the blurb yesterday, so not much to say about the story itself other than it was inspired by The Mandalorian, seeing as I re-watched it recently. Other than that this is a shorter story (about 9100 words) and I really enjoyed writing it. Hope you like it! Karas isContinue reading “Gunslinger”
Locust
The day has come. This is Locust. It’s a shorter story than those I’ve done recently (about 10,000 words). Let’s get to it. N’yur is crouched low behind a barricade that cuts one of the last main avenues of what remains of the Praetor capital of Aesur off. Ahead of him there is only destruction.Continue reading “Locust”
Infection
The day has come for the release of Infection! It’s another long one (at 21700 words) and it’s a zombie apocalypse story. Hope you like it! It’s a little over two years since the world ended. Billions died in the wake of an infection that spread like wildfire. The only problem is that the deadContinue reading “Infection”
What Remains – Original Opening
Hi everyone! Here is a little bonus post now that What Remains is out. This is the original opening that I wrote for the story. But I didn’t like it, so went back and changed it quite considerably, I think. The changes were made to make it flow better and simply because I didn’t likeContinue reading “What Remains – Original Opening”
What Remains
Story day! This is shorter than the last (about 18800 words in fact) and is a semi-sequel to Circumnavigate. I say semi because it occurs in the same post-apocalypse and around a similar time frame. Overall however, I think its a very different story. It did change quite a bit from the original outline IContinue reading “What Remains”
