An angsty werewolf flash fiction written on a whim. It was inspired by this piece of furry art.
The short story that serves as the basis for my currently in progress novel: Ember's Howl. It not only features my current obsession of werewolves but also some comedy and romance. Genres I had largely left unexplored till recently.
Written for a film class focused around utopias and distopias. I experimented with empathy for those who benefit from the distopia to play with the concept of how we define utopia and distopia. The idea was to show how that definition is usually dependant on perspective.
The short story written for my advanced fiction writing class in college. It's a bit overlong and deliberately bizzare I was experimenting with the idea of fiction and reality and how "simulation" stories like The Matrix carry with them this weird contradiction. How can the "real world" be more real than the simulation of they're part of a fictional story?
This was when I realized I used suicide WAY too much as a plot element. So I constructed this to deliberately challenge the way I was handling the topic. I thought it was the last time I used it as a plot element, but turns out I wrote Sublime Sensibility after this so I guess I still had some growing to do.
A short crime dramedy told entirely through dialoge. Written for a college assignment.
This short story was written as the final assignment for my first fiction writing class in college. It's edgy, needlessly dark and more than a bit problematic. Deals very poorly with mental health and suicide.
This was the first short story of my adult life. As a result ot comes from a place of emotional naivete. Really a means of exploring the concept of ttrpg player drama played out over both game mechanics and IRL interactions.
