A miscellaneous collection of short stories and related essays I'll post as a personal challenge. This collection is meant to help challenge me to begin to posting more of my creative works that I haven't had the confidence to post before. I hope you'll enjoy the works in this collection and accompany me as I try to venture back on my creative writing journey again, even if it's for a short while.

Elliot's partner was his whole world, but after Allan's death, his ghost haunts Elliot's dreams. Everyone tells Elliot to move on, but he isn't sure he can. ***** It's been a year since the love of Elliot's life, Allan, passed away. Everyone thinks he should have recovered after that much time, but Allan still haunts Elliot every night. He struggles to maintain relationships with his family, and despite a coworkers interest he can't summon up the courage to date. Elliot is living for the past, because to live for the present means he'll have to live with a hole in his heart. But the question Elliot has to face chases him through his monotonous days: is mourning Allan with everything he has truly living? [[word count: 40,000-50,000 words]]
