Surrounded by Love

This was just a simple story I wrote about part of a family that lived inside my head when I was a child and teenager, who once lived in a fictional city called Mesa, California. As stated in the disclaimer above, I originally posted this on a blog called Short Stories…. but I want all […]

The Story of Drachon and Alesar

Little background – this was probably one of my first stories that I let others widely read. My brother once called it a Lord of the Rings knock off. I will have to admit J. R. R. Tolkien is one of my inspirations, so perhaps I did borrow heavily from his ideas, but this was […]

Coming Home

This was my foray into writing a cute little predictable romance story (a la Hallmark Channel, which I don’t watch much) and this story is kind of long…. but it was a fun write. As I stated in the disclaimer above, I originally posted this on a blog called Short Stories…. but want all of […]

I’ve been published…. again!!

I follow a number of blogs on Word Press…. many of them written by people who follow me. So it’s a mutual kind of relationship. Back in March, one of the bloggers I follow, illustrator Andrea Benko, posted an idea she had. She wanted to create a book of her illustrations. Since writing wasn’t her […]
