Marriage comes quick as the gasped 'I do'. But what follows is subject to the ever-quickening measure of Time. Honeymoon hours turn to newlywed weeks, till months of learning and adapting turn to daily married life. The life-long settling of two bodies, two hearts into one existence together. Rayne Gray is a satisfied man. Past war and trial, he's won a pretty new wife, an unexpected fortune, and the near-completion of his life's work. If not for the machinations of his mad in-laws, the challenges of marriage and the ominous 'tick, tock' of the clock, he could finally rest. And so he will. Rest in peace, at least.

I've listed this short article as Non-Fiction, but can we really be sure of that when the topics are Tesla, Mills, and Dark Matter? What I have to say here is surely speculative, which may place it squarely in the Science Fiction genre. I'll leave it to you to decide.

The first thing to do when going mad, is hide the fact from all others. No doubt, all others are doing the same. Rayne Gray knows something is amiss in his life. He has a fortune, and a just cause. As the famous 'seraph' he has fame and followers. But the world seems wrong. An intangible wonder is lacking. Sometimes he thinks he should have married, found the right girl. But adventure is at hand. Perhaps it will provide the dangerous he craves. A vampire is haunting the city of Londonish. He doesn't quite believe in vampires. But they'd make an interesting foe to kill...

Centuries ago a mysterious family of mad geniuses split into five clans; feuding, hiding, hording their secrets of fighting and art, magic and science. Now at the dawn of the mechanical 19th century, only the five clans united can hold back the blood-red tide of industrial apocalypse. Unless they dive into it laughing. I did say 'mad'

Two women. Poles apart in looks and lifestyle. But they share one thing in common.

Short science fiction and fantasy stories from my collection of old and moldy manuscripts.

Blood & Water is about family, in its various manifestations: the one you're born into, the one you choose and the one you create. The novel follows five characters: a young mother named Ally, the deliberately childless Tim and Sara, single dad David with a college-bound daughter and David's little sister, Delilah, who shows up on his doorstep with a secret. On the surface, these friends are on very different paths in their lives with seemingly little in common, but they connect in meaningful and sometimes unexpected ways. Their experiences overlap in a way that reminds us what it is to be human. This is commercial women's fiction, told with alternating first-person narrators.
