This one’s from… oh, a while back. File metadata says it’s 01/11/2008 but that can’t be right. It’s years older than that. It was my first sword fight.
The weather was not cooperating.
Not that that was all that surprising. It was, after all, late summer, and no one but the scavengers seem to enjoy the City’s weather during the summer. Nearly everyone who can afford to leaves for cooler — or at least less densely populated — areas. The smell rising from the sewers is unbelievable. Flow through them depends on the river, which often drops to too low a level to keep things moving, so they just stagnate. The worst of it isn’t the shit, it’s the cooking fat that congeals into huge festering masses which provide that extra frisson which makes the summer air such a delight to breathe. Life in the City’s demi-monde provides many opportunities for education.
Some people, however, find that what the City has to offer in compensation is well worth the inconvenience. And then there’s the rest of us, who simply can’t afford to leave or have no place to go. Read the rest of this entry »

While this story was written as a background story for a Changeling game (as oh so very many of my stories are) I was careful to leave out anything that’s specific to Changeling and, therefore, subject to copyright and trademark law. It’s more ‘inspired by’ than ‘based on.’ It was fun to write, especially Mafut. Edited 5 October 2005.

This was inspired by a friend’s birthday in 2006. I wrote it for her, though I don’t know if she ever read it. Other people have, and the general opinion of it seems to be “That’s really fucked up.”
Have fun. Read the rest of this entry »

This began in 2005 as part of a character application at Seradus, but took on its own life. It’s the first erotic story that I’m actually pleased with.”The Book of Ruth” contains graphic images of sex and blood, masturbation and homosexuality.
If these things disturb you, perhaps you should be somewhere else.

This was written in 2006 as a character background for a Vampire: the Requiem game that never got started. It was set in pre-Katrina New Orleans. There’s more that I’m still working on, and will (I hope) publish later. I’ve got my own ideas about vampires that aren’t borrowed from White Wolf, which merits the Originals tag.

Driving to work one morning, the moon was hanging low in the eastern sky just a sliver away from new, and I could just barely see the rest of the moon’s disk above it. An airplane with a flashing red light flew across it, describing a line between the points of the crescent.
It was an utterly gorgeous sight, and I needed to write something about it. It keeps wanting to be part of a longer story, but I still don’t know what that is. From 2001. Read the rest of this entry »

A short-short story from 2006. No, Virginia, vampires are not nice people. One of the few stories that isn’t based on a game in some way. Read the rest of this entry »
