Writing

In my free time I enjoy working on various creative writing projects.

Projects

Novels

• 10,000 Butterflies (work-in-progress title: “Butterflies”)
  Started during 2008′s National Novel Writing Month, “10,000 Butterflies” is still a work in progress (52,000 words so far!).
• Bump Up (work-in-progress title: “Granger”)
  Started during 2009′s National Novel Writing Month, “Bump Up” is still a work in progress (50,000 words so far!).

Short Series

I often take more pleasure in making new worlds than revisiting old ones. Sometimes however, I unintentionally create a world for a short story that I just can’t leave behind. These are those series.

• Guineawick Tales
  A fantasy world of rodents, in the long standing tradition of animal-based children’s literature.

Short Fiction

I am a member of the Blakley Writing Group, a group of friends who read each others’ writing through semi-regular submissions.

• Flowers and Monsters
  Inspired by this song, a young boy finds the way to a woman’s heart.
• Trump
  Work In Progress
• Better Off Awake
  Work In Progress

Microfiction

I wrote most of these for the now defunct site Ficlets, the goal being to write short, modular pieces of fiction in under 1,024 characters.

• Black Magic Woman
• Drowning
• Five Minutes Ago
• His First Haircut
• I’m Coming
• Keep Moving
• The Kraken
• The Last Rock Hero
