Ever since I can remember, I've wanted to tell stories. I started out writing fiction, and it's still my favorite type of writing. I've posted here synopses of some of my old works; I'm currently working on a series of novels, but for the most part my fiction writing has been on a long hiatus since around 2000.

Hammers The story of what happens when the ghost of Albert Einstein joins the earth-wandering cranky god Thor on a park bench in London, and the two of them begin a pissing contest. My friend William R. Coughlan recently adapted it into a screenplay, and we're talking about how to get it made.

The Love of the Library This was a short story I wrote for Valentine's Day about a romance author and the secret way that books procreate. I slipped it into Inkblots in the spring of 2001.

The Slow Sweet Coda of Walter Kincaid The Slow Sweet Coda of Walter Kincaid tells the story of two old men who try and bury the axe between them after the woman that divided them passes away. Of course, they try to kill each other.

Green Yet another ideal candidate for an episode of The Twilight Zone, this is the story of two doctors who believe that their God-given mission is to find an organic replacement for synthetic limbs. When one of them stumbles across the a chameleon-like plant in the mountains, chaos ensues. Again, they of course try to kill each other. That was kind of how my brain worked in the late 90's.
