Restless Soul of the Dagger

This is a fiction blog created for the express purpose of keeping me focused on the story, and possibly generating an audience for something I think is a unique fantasy story. If you disagree that it is unique, please point me to an existing story or novel so that I don't make a fool of myself.

And a Chimp Shall Lead Us

A man with a strange day job falls in with an even stranger cult dedicated to a Cigar Smoking Ape.

Killer App

At the peak of the dot-com bubble, a system engineer takes a job with a high-tech company. His mission is to sell the "killer app", a piece of software that’s supposedly so good it will make all its competitors obsolete. His problem is that the killer app doesn’t work.

It tells a story similar to Orwell’s Down and Out in Paris and London, Bukowski’s Post Office, Melville’s White Jacket, and Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, using sharply delineated characters and work environments to illuminate social conditions and human nature. The characters and situations it portrays -- because they’re carefully observed and accurately described -- are similar to those that have made the Dilbert comic strip popular, and the book will appeal to the same audience.

The Ethereal Friendship

This is a story about the unbreakable friendship between two teenage girls even in the face of tragedy. Proof that friendship can even perform a miracle.

The Happy Stevensons

Pompous San Francisco socialite Jason Stevenson and wife move to the Northern California wilderness. Much wierdness ensues.

Letters to the Moon

The girl everyone forgot, Katie Lune.
