    Original Dragon!

    This one was another story originally written back in 2009, and as with all these I've been doing I've touched it up to fit my modern standards and ideas and shit but also. This one's special. It's the origin story of Iggy, one particular OC I don't always talk much about but has a very...

    Original Godfall

    Oh god this was also written in 2009. Have another original fiction oneshot from my seventeen-year-old self. It, remarkably, has no ties to any of my current projects, but I'm thinking of making it a kind of backstory to a super special secret upcoming one. It is also instrumental to my love of...

    Original Wakeup Call

    Written in 2014, this is a prequel to one particular story idea of mine. It’s also pretty R-rated due to swearing and some sexual references and content – though the latter should make sense given who the story is about. Now let’s-a go: Wakeup Call Kyle Jacobson was doing his taxes. Again...

    Original Backwards

    This is a small part of a larger story set in a larger universe, specifically the backstory of one of the main characters in a high fantasy universe of mine. As a result, it will probably have that “part of a larger story” vibe to it, but I’ve tried to make it stand on its own as much as I can...

    Original The Multiverse Bucket

    Heyo! This is my Multiverse Bucket, a place for my original fiction drabbles, new and old.Hopefully you enjoy these bite-sized tales. As for the first one... This was one of the drabbles I wrote for a drabble lesson in a creative writing class. I've refurbished it a little to be up to my...

    Original Of Nighthawks and Mothmen (Short Story)

    Hello there! This is a short story I wrote a few months ago - half written in response to a Reddit story prompt, half written as a tie-in to my upcoming novel For Want of a Shoe. This is set in the same world where humans and monsters co-exist in an Americana-inspired setting, but takes place a...

    Original It's Vaespar Night

    This is an original fiction Halloween Shitpost that I have been planning for a few years now. It stars one of my sonas who I love very much, is kind of a sequel to another original fiction shitpost (Steam Over The Post Apocalypse), and, well, kudos to whoever gets the joke. This is version 2.0...

    What Books Are You Reading?

    I work at a library, so even outside of the fanfic world I read a lot, especially now that work from home has started. Most of what I read is YA, since I work with teenagers, but some of it has been surprisingly good! I wanted to share a few books I've enjoyed lately and to hear whether anyone...

    Original The Heart Within The Hoard

    Hello! Since I'm taking a hiatus from writing fanfiction, I'm starting to gather ideas for original stories instead, so I've started looking at writing prompts on Reddit! What was supposed to be a quick exercise to get some inspiration turned out to be 3k words worth of material! I haven't...

    Original Steam Over The Post-Apocalypse

    This is a story set in one of my original settings, the Midnightverse, a post-apocalyptic post-human fantasy isekai story starring a human from a "normal" world getting yeeted to there as a weird chimera, plus a native human descendant and her dog. It is also a homage to Steamed Hams that is...
