Author has written 22 stories for Sci-Fi, Fantasy, General, Life, Love, and Haiku.

Reviews:
I need reviews! My only real request is that it be honest. What I really want is constructive criticism, but just getting a review is usually good enough. I fully believe in improvement through criticism (good and bad).

Stories that are currently incomplete:

1. Collector's Folly - (eleven poems uploaded)
2. Haiku - (six poems uploaded)
3. Scout - (chapter 1 uploaded)
4. Then Who am I? - (chapter 1 uploaded)

Status-
2010 - I may be changing my username in near future. I think I'll try for a bit of a rebirth for this account is necessary, it's been too long since I have written anything of substance. And my interest in Usagi Yojimbo (partly where the name Ronin Rabbit came from) has waned in recent years. 03/09/2011 - Updated my pen name from 'Ronin Rabbit' to 'Ukiah' - as I said in my previous status update, I needed a change and hopefully this will spur some more activity... or rather ANY activity from me.

Notes:
If you're looking for something below to read/review - I'd start with one of my poems such as "Twilight's Warning," "Red Song, Carries On," or my short story "Tit for Tat." I consider those my better works, at least until I manage to start fleshing out some of these other ideas I've had sitting on my computer for the past several years.

12. Red Song, Carries On reviews
When tragedy raises its voice there are many that hear. The unbridled anguish looks to sing its pain, often it inflicts on us a tune of pain to match its own; a song of revenge is sung. Not so often sung is that of grief and of peace.

Seemingly ill-educated speaker chastises arrogance & self-satisfied egos. Just for fun and to try something very different from my normal fare. Can't say I'm much for poetry, but you be my judge and jury in that regard.
