I found a source for both of those things in an unlikely, repugnant place. And now I've paid the price. This is my story.

Short stories are one of the most amazing things to read. They allow for you to see all the depth and dimension of a world, but only allowing you to stay for a tiny time. They're one of the best tools to filter creative bursts into. If you like my ongoing series, then you'll be sure to love these!
