Welcome to my page!

The goal is to start sharing as many short stories written over the years as possible, while tossing in a few new ones for good measure. I make money from freelance writing, so this is more of a hobby than a means of income as far as I'm concerned. But if anyone sees more than mere potential in these, please do let me know!

My favourite genres are sci fi and fantasy, but I tend to view any genre as a "dressing" of sorts since the meat of each and every story is the human struggle -- whether its external or internal. Though my characters tend to struggle more with their inner demons than anything else, their physical circumstances are often just as dire.

Generally, I prefer short stories to novels because they don't allow a long drawn-out narrative to dilute their point, which, as far as I'm concerned, makes them far more powerful. So, stay a while and enjoy some of my tales!
