You can read sections of this exploratory fiction here following three characters as they navigate in the world and through each other's lives. As I develop more, I'll add them here in the order that I believe they belong. Feel free to leave questions or comments. I hope you enjoy! PART I The Contesters are a group involved in a semi-covert effort to dismantle the current government which they believe is corrupt and oppressive to the general public. The group is considered a

This project started as an idea I had after listening to the soundtrack of the musical "SIX" essentially on repeat for two weeks while I was riding a motorcycle across country with limited streaming capabilities. In Anne Boleyn's section, Henry calls her a "damned witch", and I wondered what kind of effect that might have meant to Elizabeth I during her reign. A fan of Tudor history, I started playing around with the idea of a historical fiction centered on Elizabeth I, "witc

“These terrorist sects are getting bolder.” Champion was barely listening to the Commander. He had been the source of most of the data for this speech. This small room collection of players – a select investigative team where he was the newest member. Only a year ago he’d been promoted to Major in the Agent chapter – a goal he’d been pursuing since his second year of training school, when he’d first learned his sister was seduced by the rebel terrorist group that called thems

The room was empty – Dala’s favorite part of the day. Often, she liked to steep in the space, listening to the sounds of life in other places. Car tires whooshing past on the road, the clammer of a train on the tracks and sometimes a whistle. People talking indiscernibly as they walked past the building on the way to wherever, birds and dogs and squirrels asserting themselves in their own spheres of influence. Today she had to keep moving. She took just a few brief moments of

Cole watched Dala as she wrote. Once again, she was dragging the meeting later than it already was. She stopped for a moment and flexed her fingers, and the y-shaped scar on the back of her hand caught the light. Not for the first time, he wondered how she might have gotten that scar. Lots of things about Dala irritated him, but this unknown in particular – the origin of that scar – always felt ominous. Cole didn’t like loose ends. People like her didn’t keep scars, people wi

It’s an eerie feeling – being in the streets at night. But Jordan always enjoyed the silence of the city at sleep. Peaceful and calm – the streetlights giving rhythmic light to the squared patterns of the sidewalk blocks. Sometimes he wears his headphones and enjoys the sight of the city alone while listening to the music of the day. Other days, like today, he walks along with the sounds of the city as his tunes. A distant siren, a racoon in a trash can up the alley, the whoo

A small-town environmental scientist struggles to save the natural balance of land, flora and fauna against a profit-hungry construction company that continues to cut corners. An ambitious architect dreams of building the kind of art that lasts generations, but has to climb to the top to reach the sky. More to come.

David crouched atop the pile of junk, behind a flowing tattered canvas. He searched the debris below, looking for any signs of his enemies. Hidden in his selected perch, David saw movement to his left but shifted only his eyes to focus on it. Any movement of his own might give away his position. Only three days ago, these enemies were his cohorts. Other candidates all working toward the same goal, warrior status and the ultimate title of Elite Warrior. Of the thousands of tra
