Fable Stories

In 1883, a thirteen-year-old boy discovers that God has left a weapon behind: Nehashtan, the Rod of God. It has raised the dead. It has called down storms. It has healed the broken and punished those who would misuse it. It has been passed down through the ages from Moses to Merlin, and now it has fallen into the hands of Gregory Mayhew's Uncle Anton, a former circus performer who has gone from stage magician to traveling miracle salesman. Mr. Miracle's Exodus is a 70,903-word weird-western novel: Death Valley Days meets The Twilight Zone, with the epic Western sweep of Lonesome Dove and the unsettling theological speculation of Michael Moorcock's Behold the Man. When Anton accepts a million-dollar contract to produce a river in Death Valley, thirteen-year-old Greg joins him along with his older brother, Brett, on an expedition across the American West. But the Rod is no ordinary instrument. It has a will of its own, and Greg gradually discovers that its history reaches back far beyond the American frontier to the prophets of the Bible and perhaps even further - Creation itself. The deeper Greg gets into the mystery, the more frightening the truth becomes. The Rod does not simply grant miracles. It judges the people who wield it. Told through the recollections of an elderly Gregory Mayhew in 1949, Mr. Miracle's Exodus is a story of faith, family, resurrection, and the dangerous consequences of putting the power of the divine into human hands.

Won an award. Poems get better with time lapsed since my abstinence. Your mind is a burning room, a drowning storm, and a torturing fairy-tale all at once. Now, descend through its layers and discover what waits in the one place even the flames can't reach. Sad Sundays is my weekly space to share melancholic poetry, words that help me navigate the stillness, the weight, and the quiet storms of recovery. Each Sunday, I post a new piece that I've written, using poetry to process my journey through detox and rehab, to face the difficult parts of healing, and to find meaning in the silence. Every poem is written by hand with help from the Rhymezone platform. This series is as much for me as it is for anyone who finds comfort in knowing they're not alone on their gray days. I will eventually try to tie most of my work together into a larger piece, but first and foremost, this will function as a collection of my writings while I am going through detox. There may be an underlying story, but perhaps not. Find out weekly, and join me for a Sad Sunday moment. New Upload every Sunday at 18:00 (6 PM) German time - CET/CEST (UTC+1/UTC+2).

WARNING: This started in 2019 and is still ongoing... I call this my sick fic. Every time I get bedridden and sick I continue to write this fic because there's something about a fever that makes me become an insane creative monster. I wrote a 30 page comic in 20 hours once while having a fever. This being said, the writing is really bad but newer updates will probably get better. REALLY SLOW UPDATES. Like... SOMETIMES OVER A YEAR BETWEEN UPDATES.
