I read. Excessively. Some favorites: the Harry Potter series, Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code, Artemis Fowl series, His Dark Materials trilogy, the Bartimaeus trilogy, more...
I suck at summaries. So I'm not sure how people end up reading my stuff. Must be something to do with the subliminal messaging and mind control techniques I'm experimenting with. Yeah...
Stories
In 55 Words
Some short, hopefully humorous, stories, each told in exactly 55 words. I got the idea when I read some by The.Wizard.Pen.Dragon. Go. Read them. Oh, and these, too, by Sandra A. Singiphrax II.
Life in Geometry with no Parole
A short piece about how boring I find math, written one day during -what else?- geometry. It has a different point of view,
if nothing else.
Things you Don't Want to Hear
Exactly as the title would suggest. I originally meant to update this a lot more, but I've only managed doctors, plastic
surgeons, and psychiatrists so far. Maybe I'll get back to it...
The Truth About McDonald's, Part Dos
Again, the title's pretty self-explanatory. Well, no, I hope what I've written isn't the truth. I think I know a few people who aren't eating there again. This is unrelated to The Truth About McDonald's, except that they're both about McDonald's. They make sense independently.
Sacrificial Ritual Gone Awry
The strange product of the prompt "Write about a heart that won't quit." Crappy title, possessed llama, what more can I ask for? I don't know, this is a weird one.
The Truth About McDonald's
A newspaper article-style piece about what's really going on at McDonald's.
The Squishy Fishy
Short story exaggerating the trials and tribulations of eating fish for the first time, packaged in a rhyming title. Yay. I had literally about three seconds to come up with a title.
