Author's Note: Shall I continue the story? My English name is Edward Wade. My original name is Mwel. You would consider me to be about 6 years old.

Meet Cassidy, My Latest Main Character...

Author's Note: Here's a scene from much overdue (I've been writing it for over a year and a half, off and on) and planned wheelchair user adventure story.

Saving Ping Su, 2005 Nanowrimo Novel, Part 1, Early Draft

Finally... A Mollee Excerpt

Author's Note: At last, a scene from my Nano novel, The Misadventures of Mollee that's good enough to post. The democratic school featured here is based on a real institution. Enjoy! “Wow!” Mollee breathed as The Egress Center came into view. To her, it seemed every color, event, and object possible... Sign in to see full entry.

Fantasy Writing Group Assignment #1

Author's Note: This is my half-done homework for my fantasy writing group. I don't really like it, but my group did. I read aloud myself with no interpreter and they understood me, which was a big kudo because they don't know me (I'm really conscious of my speech impairment). *** We’ve been heroes,...

The beginning of an untitled Sci-fi Story

Author's note: A story inspired by an oddly dressed book clerk. Guess what happens next? I don’t normally frequent megachains, but I entered the B. Daulton intent on buying a cheap, paperback fantasy novel to read on my already late train, even though I knew that I should be reading the JAMA or The... Sign in to see full entry.
