I started tinkering with this idea a while and decided to change a few chunks. I wanted to experiment with dwarves and wanted something more like a character sketch than a ‘story’.

A Distant Hope
Been a busy week, so here’s a little snippet for everyone! Hope you’re all doing well!
The Dog Walker
I’m dog-sitting this week, so I used that as a prompt. A little bit of a fantasy twist, but I think it’s a neat character sketch.
The Queen’s Garden
As a plant lover, I often dream of my own garden. Wouldn’t it be great to have a little helper to keep everything in order while we’re away? Enjoy!
The Curse of Captain Juliet
A while back, I wrote the story The End of Captain Juliet
But just because it’s the end doesn’t mean that the story is over, does it? Think of that as the prequel to a new tale:
An Afternoon in the Dark
A while ago, in a writing group, I had someone tell me that they really enjoyed my visual descriptions. They said that they were very clear and they could imagine the setting and characters perfectly. After that workshop, I decided to challenge myself a little and wrote a piece without using visual descriptions. Enjoy!
Mill Creek
For some reason, I felt like writing something rather spooky and creepy. This would likely be a prologue to something longer, or possibly a big flashback reveal with a surprise twist! Either way, Enjoy “Mill Creek”. Some creepy stuff in here, so brace yourself for that. Sorry if you were expecting something a bit more holly-jolly, but my muse was craving creepy.
A Request of Halcourn Hall
Going for a bit of an atmospheric vibe with this one and playing with different kinds of dramatic tension.
The Wyvern’s Gyre
Enjoy this month’s story: The Wyvern’s Gyre!
A Familiar Comes Knocking
My friend sent me a prompt of a crow and a cat walking together. After asking why they were together, I came up with this scene. Enjoy!
