Author has written 4 stories for Romance, Young Adult, and General.

I miss Fictionpress... I've realized this recently. And I really miss writing. So I'm posting a few assignments from my short fiction class; you'll recognize some of the characters from my longer stories. And if there's a good enough response, and I find the proper inspiration, I might try to write some more short stuff for you, too.

In the meantime, I'm attempting to start a new project. I'd love to finish Proximity of the Legs, but I need to really revamp my plot first, so we'll see where we can go with that. I have ideas for a different story, but I may end up trying again with my ancient story about Blake, Trent, and Kit. (That was a long time ago...I don't know if any of you remember them.) Don't know...again, we'll see. But I really want to write more.

Also, I'm considering reposting My Life As A Walking Cliche, since I haven't been having much luck with the whole publication attempt. So if you have any thoughts on that, let me know. And enjoy the new stuff!

I like this quote. It's been in my profile forever, and it's staying. This is why I cannot write poetry.
"I'll never be a poet. I'm not enough of a sensualist really; there are only a few obvious things that I notice as primarily beautiful: women, spring evenings, music at night, the sea; I don't catch the subtle things like 'silver-snarling trumpets.' I may turn out an intellectual, but I'll never write anything but mediocre poetry."




1. First Words reviews
A series of conversations between Jim and his daughter Ellen spark various memories of his relationship with his wife. One-shot, completely out of chronological order- don't let it confuse you. Comments appreciated.

One-shot! Jed and Evelyn dated for a while, they broke up, and now they share a special friendship. Microfiction written for class- thoughts?

3. Proximity of the Legs » reviews
Take three brothers, add two half sisters, throw in a girlfriend and a gay roommate, and what do you get? The biggest batch of unrequited love you’ll ever stumble across. Love triangles are way too simple for these people…

4. My Son, the Cliché Twin » reviews
He hired a maid who thinks he’s a jerk. He met a girl online and started to fall for her. And then he bumped into my son, who happened to look exactly like him, so of course they switched places. And that was just the beginning…COMPLETE!
