My Published Stories

None of these are by a traditional publishing company but I'll get there, we all start out somewhere.  I went to a writer's coffeehouse meeting last month, after Christmas and got to listen to Jonathan Maberry and Gregory Frost talk about writing.  Something stood out at me, and it was something Gregory Frost said. Or Greg, as I like to call him.

Are we friends?  No.  This is my first time meeting him (sorta) I just like to call him Greg and pretend like we're friends, I do the same thing with Jon and L.A Banks, so if I refer to Leslie, that's who I'm talking about, we're all friends, they just don't know we're friends yet.

Anyway, Greg said that no writer should ever stop writing, that "that should never happen."  So I said, that sounds good to me.  So here are the links to a few things I've published on smashwords.

http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/8292 - Battle at the Revkar Portal (scifi)
http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/7166 - The 13th Floor (paranormal)
http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/7952 - Lily's Ballad (romance)

I've also written another short story Rain of the Slimax, it's science fiction and I've been shopping it around to scifi magazines and e-zines. 

I will be published somewhere, it will be a joyous day and the Earth will be awesome once again, but until that day I'll hit the pavement with something I like to call determination.  Or as some other people I know who may remain nameless foolishness.  Whatever you want to call it, I don't care.  I'm gonna do it.

#AHS: Cult - Still No Cult

Image
I know.  I know.  There's only been two episodes and I'm already pretty annoyed with American Horror Story.  Here are some suggestions as to what I would do. 1. Two-hour premiere for the first night if things are going to be this slow.  Or back to back night premieres.  Yes, we've had two gruesome deaths but we're not sure what killed them or we're supposed to question ourselves as to who killed them. 2. Shorter seasons .  I'd be fine with a shorter season if it meant more action faster. I guess my millenial brain doesn't like the pace. So far Sarah Paulson is scared of stuff her wife doesn't see and Winter is a terrible baby sitter.  Yawn. This episode we pick up right where the last episode ended with Ally screaming.  Which is a good portion of the first episode.  And there's still no cult.  We knew who the Coven, the Freak Show, the Hotel, the Roanoke Nightmare, Asylum and Murder House were.  We knew where all of those things we

Friday Flick: Coherence

Image
This is one of my low key favorite movies.  I say low key because it was rough, rough around the edges, it may be more enjoyable as a short story.  But the fact that it was low budget was a plus in my opinion because it forces the cast and crew to be more creative and not go for the flashy-flashy.  You have you to be a master story teller to convey your vision with very little.  The story doesn't leave this one house which can come off as very hard do without making the story very stagnant. NOW, I will say there are some times where I think the story fell off for a little while but I think it was a story that had a clear middle and end and I like those kinds of stories. If you have read my earlier posts you'll know that I like stories that utilize the idea of multiverse theories.  That's why I liked Stranger Things SO much.  And it's also why I'm a little afraid of the Hadron Collider, but I digress. I think this movie was great because it wasn't just abou
