Hello friends, it's been a minute hasn't it? I won't bore you with the details of the why for said occurrence. The heart of the matter is that since the time I posted the last chapter I've moved three times and started a new job which I recently lost due to the pandemic going on. But chapter three is finally here with more to come soon. Enjoy. ------------...
This side story is very 'action' heavy, compared to all the other chapters. It felt a little bit immature in a 'grab as many groceries as you can in 60 seconds' sorta way, but I just really wanted to do a piece set on the post-virus education system. It's also the first time that we have a black, male main character. As always, leave as much feedback as pos...
Just when we thought life might be getting back to normal, the governor announced that our state was going back to the stronger lockdown procedures from early April to deal with a sudden surge in cases. We were going to be stuck at home for the rest of the summer, if not longer. All and all, I couldn't really complain. I still had my job, as my office was a...
This will be another first for me: a story set in the present! It'll be the first in a new relaxed voice, as well, more in line with my normal speech. That may be good or bad. You shall be the judge! I dig this one. It made me happy to write, which is odd and unfamiliar to me. Please, give me love, hate, and comments! Tell me what you think, and enjoy, if yo...
2062, the Warwickshire town of Atherstone. Tamsin Beech and the others ducked back under the cover of the old Aldi supermarket as two sleek Sukhoi Su-57 jets roared overhead, staying in tight formation as they banked off to the south. "Shit," Leonid Denisovich cursed, "Volk's sending in his jets to make sure they got us all." The vast mushroom cloud boilin...
He had loved her for a while now. Or maybe from the moment he first heard her voice, so high and pure, like a siren. And soon after he had gotten to know her, they were in the same scene after all and both singers, both in their twenties. It felt like they each had a gravity that pulled them closer, and now they'd gotten so close they circled each other in d...
Tahral screamed and moaned at the wound that had clipped his shoulder. The man had experienced pain before, but this was his first time being shot. It was both a new and painful experience for him, one he did not wish to repeat. Korsa had placed him on the ground inside the Darkstrider and was checking his wound. She sighed in relief at what she found and pi...

* My first story in English which was put together rather quickly. Hope you don't mind that it starts off slowly. Please share your thoughts in the comments. Thanks for reading! ***** "You got to help me out here!" Alexander pleaded. "Helping you out is the last thing I have to do. Consider yourself lucky that I even took this call. Should have blocke...
For a while it seemed Amy and I were, in nearly all respects, lucky relative to the rest of the world in seeing out the Covid 19 virus lockdown. We lived on an acreage in Bayview Heights, a sparsely populated Sydney suburb. We had our own pool and tennis court and Amy her own horse to ride, so we weren't lacking fresh air or exercise, even if we missed our...
