5. Cat Tales: Cat And The Horrid Old Troll reviews
The first in a series of fables and fairytales I'm doing for children. The story probably sounds familiar, but then again, it's a fairytale, so they've all been told, I guess. To me, it's more in the way you approach the story. Enjoy!
Fiction: Kids - Rated: K - English - Fantasy/Adventure - Chapters: 1 - Words: 1,576 - Reviews: 4 - Published: 4-13-09 - Complete
6. She's Singing For Me reviews
Wow, been a while since I posted anything. Anywho, a new PG song I wrote. This one took a bit of doing from the original bit that kind of floated into my head whiel driving, but I think it came together well in the end. Enjoy.

7. The Inspector » reviews
Homicide Lt. Scott Henry, NYPD, is stumped by a series of freakish murders, and not even Adrian Dyer, one of the FBI's best profilers, can help him solve the case. When the perpetrators start to multiply, the Bureau sends the Inspector to get things done.

8. I've Got It Bad reviews
Dedicated to Johny Blades. If he likes it, maybe it'll go on a Pandion Gene album.

9. Long Climb Up reviews
Everyone else is doing a political or socially aware song, and it's one of the biggies everyone band's gotta have, so here is the Pandion Gene's.

11. Power Trip
The other newest Pandion Gene song. Its not my favoritest thing I've ever done, but the theoretical video is thexy.
Poetry: Song - Rated: M - English - Angst - Chapters: 1 - Words: 220 - Published: 12-3-07 - Complete
12. If You Love Me
Probably the better of the two newest Pandion Gene ditties. The other one gets a cooler music video, though. Its all smexy.
Poetry: Song - Rated: T - English - Angst/Romance - Chapters: 1 - Words: 318 - Published: 12-3-07 - Complete
13. The Outside Of The Door reviews
A collaboration with specter of the flesh. This song, oddly, turned out a bit poppier than is usually the Pandion Gene style, but I like it. Based on a true story.
Poetry: Song - Rated: T - English - Romance/Angst - Chapters: 1 - Words: 474 - Reviews: 1 - Published: 7-15-07 - Complete
14. The Dance
This Pandion Gene song is a bit slower than some of the others, more along the line of 'Sometimes'. It's one of those creepy ballads.
Poetry: Song - Rated: K - English - Mystery/Suspense - Chapters: 1 - Words: 500 - Published: 7-15-07 - Complete
15. I'll Put A Spell On You
Yet another Pandion Gene number that gets stuck in my head all the time. I hate getting my own stuff stuck in my head. This one's pretty upbeat. A good dance tune.
Poetry: Song - Rated: K - English - Romance/Supernatural - Chapters: 1 - Words: 329 - Published: 7-15-07 - Complete
16. Ceredo reviews
A slow, kind of jazzy forlorn love song for the lighter album. Norah Jones could probably sing it better than I could. But then, I could listen to that woman sing forever. About anything. Can you praise her enough?
Poetry: Song - Rated: K - English - Romance/Tragedy - Chapters: 1 - Words: 466 - Reviews: 2 - Published: 5-7-07 - Complete
17. Thinking About You
A more lighthearted Pandion Gene ditty, for the feelgood album.
Poetry: Song - Rated: K - English - Romance - Chapters: 1 - Words: 376 - Published: 4-30-07 - Complete
18. Silver Mustang
One of my favorite Pandion Gene songs. I actually got the idea from a combination of conversations I had with my mother and my best friend. Like all songs, especially mine, it sounds better sung than it looks written down.
Poetry: Song - Rated: T - English - Fantasy/Humor - Chapters: 1 - Words: 828 - Published: 4-23-07 - Complete
19. Sometimes reviews
A Pandion Gene song I jotted down about a friend I had a long time ago. Based on a true story. This is one of the few pieces I've ever written that has never been edited, either by me or by anyone else. This is exactly how it came out the first time.
Poetry: Song - Rated: T - English - Tragedy/Angst - Chapters: 1 - Words: 365 - Reviews: 2 - Published: 4-23-07 - Complete
20. Innocence
Again, a song for the Pandion Gene. This one is a little more romantic, but no less angsty. Ah, well we can't all write happy songs, nor can we write all happy songs.
Poetry: Song - Rated: K+ - English - Angst/Romance - Chapters: 1 - Words: 325 - Published: 4-20-07 - Complete
21. Puppet reviews
Another Pandion Gene tune. This song doesn't seem like much until you hear it sung. The music is a lot creepier than the lyrics.

23. In The Streets
Another song I wrote for the Pandion Gene. This one is more typical, I think, and less Norah Jonesy than 'John's Song.'
Poetry: Song - Rated: T - English - Angst/Tragedy - Chapters: 1 - Words: 488 - Published: 4-20-07 - Complete
24. John's Song
I originally started work on this song ages ago for my band, the Pandion Gene, and finished late last year for a short Indie film soundtrack. It's very Norah Jones or Sarah McLachlan or Anna Nalick... I think. You'd just have to hear it.
