A Box Full of Boxes
Published Jun 19, 2020 · 1,000 words (4 minutes) · 105 views
Originally published in Every Day Fiction. It's about relationships and detritus and actually the story itself was triggered by neighbors who continued to dump their trash into the back yard. Accidentally, I believe, but the behavior did not change until their dumpster was moved.

Fantasy fairy tale hansel & gretel
With all the interest in fairy tales and lately HANSEL & GRETEL, I read this essay from SyFy with great interest. And I remembered my own take on this fairy tale, an example of a flawed story that sold to a decent market anyway. https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/the-dark-history-behind-hansel-and-gretel?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=hanselandgretel&utm_term=paid&utm_content=link_ad&fbclid=IwAR2Q7JbQqww1yulVVRaHCLJGmcw5EFMR7WP7aiFpom-38d7nY5UdG7HrVv4

A Superlative For Goodbye
Published Jan 18, 2020 · 460 words (2 minutes) · 170 views
A brand-new market for 100-word stories opened. Within an hour I wrote this as a 100-word story, submitted it, and they purchased it. Months later, before pay and publication, they closed down. This was purchased by Jean Asselin of James Gunn's AS ASTRA and the editorial staff feels it's the flagship story for the magazine.

Classic Science Fiction space travel generation ship computer systems
Originally published in the anthology, DESOLATE PLACES, from Hadley Rille Books (Eric T. Reynolds, Editor), this science fiction story is an example of great parts that don't quite mesh perfectly. Still, good story with a good payoff.

Fantasy Humor Romance steampunk magic swordplay
Donna Quick is mad. And her companion, Jane Smith, is a magician. This is perhaps my favorite story (I love them all but Jane Smith has a strong place in my heart). Have you read "Don Quixote"?

Published online but I don't have a note as to where. Yep, it's a pretty literal 'story' about our time in the hospital room.
