I have been writing for the Web since 2003. You may have seen some of my work on StoriesOnline. If so, you know what kinds of stories I started with. In recent years, thanks to the feedback and encouragement of readers, I have begun writing 'Serious' science fiction. Some of what I post here are posted elsewhere, but you may see different versions here. If you like my stuff and are a publisher, or can help me get my foot in the door with one, please contact me. I could use the money.

1 Best Served Cold

A Justiceman Episode (2)
Part of the The Post Sickness World of Phoenicia universe
In the post-Sickness Arizona territory, rape and murder are not uncommon. If you're going to commit these acts, though, you'd best be careful who your victims are. Bad guys are not always the baddest guys around.

2 Finders Keepers

Pudgy, out of shape, divorced, and laid-off; Colin thought he had hit rock-bottom. Then came the landslide that almost sent him to his grave. In the depths of despair, miles from nowhere, he searches for a way to get back to civilization and finds that his service is required in a totally unexpected role - as the person who will save the human race from destruction. / (Reviews)

A Justiceman Episode (3)
Part of the The Post Sickness World of Phoenicia universe
Is it murder, or a justified killing? As the territory's new 'Justiceman', Alex must find a way to make that determination, but first he's got to bring the killer in without getting himself killed.

7 Prototype Ten

Will was just an average guy until a terrorist's bomb stripped away everything that he loved in life. When he came across the ad for volunteers for a super-soldier experiment, he figured he had nothing to lose, and if it all worked out, maybe he'd be able to get revenge. Little did he or the people running the program realize just how it would turn out. (Note: If you read this on SOL, you'll find this version to be a bit different)

8 Thunder in the Desert

A Justiceman Episode (5)
Part of the The Post Sickness World of Phoenicia universe
