Look for My Stories on the Web

The other day I made a blog post to some of my older articles that can be found on the web. that post can be found here. Now I'd like to make a similar post, only I want to point you to some of my short fiction writing that appears only online. These links art to several short stories of mine that appear on various websites. Check them out, perhaps you‘ll enjoy them. 

This first one is to my take on the backstory to a superhero called The Owl. This particular character is not the Owl who appears in Marvel comics, but one that appeared a generation earlier in the Now defunct Dell comics. Dell published in the ‘50s & ‘60s but has long since gone out of business and the company‘s characters have slipped into the Public Domain. I work with a group of creators who have taken up creating new stories utilizing these characters. We call our publishing venture InDELLible Comics, and our various magazine-sized comics can be found on Amazon. The image of the Owl that appears inside the InDELLible logo at the top of the page was drawn by Carl Morgans. 



Night of the Owl



This next story is something that I wrote at a comicbook convention where we were having a contest to write a flash fiction story. As one of the moderators of the the event I didn't actually compete, but was so entertained by the concept, I penned my own flash fiction.


And Then, Everybody Died!


Another flash fiction story of mine (this one limited to exactly 500 words) is online in another place, this one posted by Weird Fiction Quarterly WFQ comes out (as its name implies) four times a year, we are now wrapping up our fifth issue (Winter '23). I've had work appear in each issue. We are also planning an omnibus hard cover of the first four issues, look for it and the other issues on Amazon



Whiteout



This nest story was a romance story that I penned to enter a contest on Barsdy (I didn't win, but my story is still housed over there.


Good Morning, Cupcake


Next up is a story that I have up online at Writers Unite, a website of writers to which I belong. Writers Unite has published a number of print anthologies. I've had work appear in three of them (with a fourth appearing in print soon).  


Cat Got Your Tongue

My story is the last one in a thread of  10 stories, so when you get to the page, do a search for the title and you'll go right there. 




This just in. I have a new Christmas horror story posted over here called The Yule Cat. It based upon an ancient Icelandic legend. The story is $1.25 as a download, but well worth the price.

Once again, you can also find copies of books that I'm in on the web, just go looking for them.

My days under the Malibu Sun!

Way back in the early '90s I was writing for, well, virtually every comicbook magazine under the sun. As if that wasn't enough, I wa...
