Quantum Toast Up
I just posted "Quantum Toast," in the stories area. I'm not too happy with this story because the ending seems like a cop out. If I get around to it I'll rewrite it.

Legumes and Other N-space Components Up
Today I posted "Legumes
and Other N-space Components." This was one of those short stories that I didn't think warranted it's own page for some reason. It also shows that I am running out of stories from my other site.

Evening Chapter 3 Up
I just posted Evening Chapter 3 in the stories section. That's the final chapter to that story. The last "page" was much longer than the others, but thems the breaks.

Evening Chapter 2 Up
I posted Evening, Chapter 2 in the stories section. I'm running out of stories to "migrate" from my other site. This means that I will have to write/edit some new stuff.
Oh Joy.
It's not that I don't like writing, I'm just afraid that what I create wont be any good. Judging by what has come before, however, I've set the bar pretty low :-)

Evening Chapter 1 Up
Today I posted Chapter 1 of "Evening" a parody of the angsty, teenage movie series "Twight." It also winds up spoofing the "Harry Potter" series as well.
It was originally written one page a day, but I have gathered 5 days into a chapter.

Groupthink: the Lighter Side Up
I just posted Groupthink: the Lighter Side on the stories page. Migrating these stories is much more time consuming than I imagined. Going forward, I may just post a chapter, instead of the entire story.

Deathtalker 2 Up
I posted the sequel to the "Deathtalker" story, "Deathtalker 2" on the blog. I noticed a piece of original artwork for the story, created by none other than "Ozark" the creator of the "Mind Flayed" webcomic. I looked around, but I found no working links for that webcomic. I will try emailing her but I'm not very hopeful. Too bad: I really liked that webcomic.

Deathtalker Up
Just when you thought the web was safe I go and migrate another story!
This one is a Star Wars fanfic about Anakin Skywalker. The thing was, Anakin was supposed to bring balance to the force but he really didn't do anything (as Darth Vadar he does but that's another story).
This is a "what if" story in which he takes a different route...

Puppet: Spydhar Up
Today I put up Puppet: Spydhar in the stories section.
I also noticed something about my writing: as I get further and further into a series, it tends to get sillier and sillier. Stories like the Puppeteer series, that started out about something serious, like loneliness, end up being about something silly, like giant spiders from another dimension trying to eat you.
I don't know why this is. I like funny stories as much as the next person. If I had any readers, I'd ask if it bothers them. Maybe it's because I tend to get immediate, positive feedback when I write funny stuff. Maybe it's easier for me to write funny stories.
Maybe it doesn't mean anything at all.
It's just something I noticed.

Puppet: Agent Up
I just put "Puppet: Agent" up. This is a story about how a human want revenge on the Puppeteers and he decides to create another "plague" to wipe them out.
I noticed,upon re-reading this story, that is less serious than the preceding stories (this however, is a relative measure, the preceding story centered laser weidling, foosball playing giant lizards who speak in "haxor").

Puppet: Soldier Up
This story is about the Leet: a reptilian race of gamers who speak in "haxor", are fond of chicken McNuggets and come from another dimension (yes, it's supposed to sound ridiculous). The story also shows more of the Puppeteers' "master plan" for the human race.
I added some navigation links at the bottom of each page.

Puppet:Defender Finished
It took longer than I thought it would to migrate this.
Also, I forgot to post until night time.
Never-the-less. I enjoyed reading this again.

Puppet: Defender
Another story that I "migrated" from my old site is up Puppet: Defender. This story picks up where Puppet left off: Mike & company bring their conflict to space (and find out a few things about the Puppeteers).

Puppet
I "migrated" a story from my other site, blather-n-stories.blogspot.com to here. The story is called "Puppet" and is the first in a series of stories from that setting. It is based on the classic Robert Heinlein book "The Puppet Masters." In the original, their are allusions to the idea that wearing a Puppet Master could, in some ways, be a positive experience. I took that idea and ran with it in this story.
Migrating this story also involved "outing" myself in that I admit that my other persona, "Whatever," is me, but I doubt anyone cares about that.
I had some trouble putting the story on a single page: editing was not working correctly, so I broke it into 6 chapters.
I rewrote the story a couple of years later. I will try and post the revised version as well. Enjoy.
