Just Add Water!

A light-hearted romp involving mail-order mishaps and sea-monkeys. Originally written for a postcard contest sponsored by Geist magazine. Creative inspiration provided by a very strange postcard featuring drawings of wee humans cavorting in a large body of water. This picture took my feverish mind back to the days of comic book advertisements with their tantalizing drawings of sea monkeys.

Marine Love (boyxboy)
"Careful human." The...thing said in a concerned voice. "W-What are you, what d-do you want?" I shakily asked him, curling up my body protecting myself. "Shh human don't be afraid. You are my mate." What is a mate? Why did he bring me here? Who is he? Why is he looking at me like that? From the distance I put between us I could admire him more, and his tail. He really is beautiful. It was a deep teal green colour with gold and blue blended in with it that reminded me of his eyes. He was holding himself up with his arms looking at me curiously, head slightly bent to the side and all. "What are you, what do you want?" I asked slowly, my heartbeat had almost reduced to normal again but I was feeling a strange pull towards the creature in front of me. "I am a Merman and you are my mate." His voice was deep and sounded like music the way he spoke. But mate? "Mate?" I asked hoping to find out the way in which he directed this word. "My love," he paused looking into my hazel eyes. "Come closer human you are beautiful...and mine."Complete

Rise of the Fishmen - A Hostile Takeover
When three fishmen RISE from the deep, armed with a dubious prophecy and an inflated sense of entitlement, they expect nothing less than to conquer both land and sea. World domination! What they get, however, is a RAW deal, only half of what they were promised-and it's the wet half too. Sure, they control every fish in the sea, but in classic fishman fashion... they want it all. All or nothing baby! Unfortunately, they have no idea how to capture the land or control the pesky humans who live there. After a disastrous media debut, they kidnap struggling cameraman Gary Graves, who might just be the missing piece of their world-dominatorial puzzle. Can he lead them to fame? Glory? Influencer status? Can he help them create the next big viral prank channel? Or develop an app that sells fish by the truckload? The answers you seek are contained RIGHT HERE in Shakespeare's favourite unpublished novel: Rise of the Fishmen - A Hostile Takeover.
