Author has written 16 stories for Nature, Life, Family, Humor, Politics, General, Supernatural, Horror, Young Adult, Mystery, and General.

Someday, I hope to step into original fiction. Until that day comes, I deposit what scattered resources Inspiration drops into my head here. Mostly, I dwell in the increasingly retarded realms of LotR fanfiction (You'll find me under Tindomiel) but occasionally I come up with a reasonably good piece of verse and type it up. Sometimes it borders on political. Most of the time it's just sarcastic.

My pen name (used to be) Cashier No. 9, please because it sounded amusing when it spored in my head, NOT because it shows the triviality of modern society, or the plague of wealth, or the deep psychological responses to financial institutions causing you to move up the queue (although these are all perfectly applicable).
