Avantpop Stories

There is another dimension beyond that which is known to fictional characters. A collection of short stories, poems, snippets, vignettes, and everything else that crosses my mind and has no place in my current publications, or is waiting in the wings to find its forever home. Here is either where ideas are born, or where they go to die. We will be cruising at an altitude of morally dubious. The time is lost. The weather is sarcastic with a high chance of misdirection. Please, sit back, fasten your seatbelts, and enjoy the ride. Just know, there will be turbulence, and there is a shortage of chairs.

Hello there, you bonkers little human. I see that you have reached the end of your voyage. Please confirm the pass code before continuing to the land of magic and mystery. What?! You don't remember it?! How can someone forget something so predictable?! It's literally "I make self-deprecating jokes because my life is the biggest circus." The ghost on my shoulder stirs, viciously ripping out its imaginary earphones as it stares me dead in the eyes. "What? I thought the pass code was 'Complaining more about writing than actually writing'. Such betrayal..." *** Welcome to the world of quirky humor and spiraling fantasy, where modern sassy ghosts dance to jazz, kids walk around with skulls instead of dolls, Cinderella hurls her glass slippers at the prince's face because he is just so freaking annoying, and where you can get the worst trust issues.
