Of Fangs and Fury
William lived a quiet life hunting and fishing to provide for his village, until one day he comes back from a hunt to find his entire village destroyed and all those he cared for murdered. As he sets out on a path of vengeance in a world that thinks he is a monster, he is joined by an odd Tabaxi ranger who spent too many years lost in the feywild and a kleptomaniac astral elf monk. With this group of oddballs, things are bound to get out of hand. This story is a transcription of my first D&D campaign. As it is an ongoing campaign, updates may be slow.

Green Unpleasant Land
Short Synopsis Green Unpleasant Land Fog shrouded Victorian London, but not the 1888 we'd recognise. There's a whiff of revolution in the air, not to mention lycanthropy in the shires.

Loyal-to-a-fault manservant Bill might know more about his master's heroics than either are letting on. When the nameless book is stolen, Bill's entanglement threatens to bring his carefully constructed façade crashing down. There's something nasty lurking in the shadows and it wants its book back. Who would dare confront the tentacles slithering from the sewers? When the Empire needs a hero, it doesn't always get the one it expects. 80k words Gothic/Cosmic Horror/Alt HistoryComplete

Mt. Sensan-Ghi
A collection of poems and short stories interwoven in a larger narrative that served as a way for me to work through burnout. The tale of Estavir is a metaphorical dive into my burned out mind as he searches for deeper meaning and climbs Mt. Sensan-Ghi filled with trials to test his heart. This is my first published work of fiction. It was conceptualised during a burnout I experienced back in 2017. With support from family, friends and a professional with whom to talk, I tried working through the burnout over the period of a year. At each stage of my journey I created a story to help me process. It's bizarre, a bit dark slightly existential and close to my heart. Please enjoy.Complete
