This page links to my short stories, organized by year.  I am encouraged that Ray Bradbury wrote one story a week and it only took him ten years to really get the hang of it.  I'm writing one story every two weeks.  That takes me about an hour a day, on average.  I started writing in 2012.  So by my calculations, you can start reading the good stuff in 2031, at the earliest.


WARNING: Any of the following stories may contain strong language, sexual situations, graphic violence, gross inaccuracies, obvious errors, snarkiness, robots versus kung fu, the explosive demolition of a stone golem, aliens, scary monsters, clowns, and Frank Zappa.  Some stories may not be unread.  /YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

 

Short stories written in 2012

 

These first 10 stories are based on ideas given to my by my friends.  They all need a rewrite or two.  The ideas given ranged from a single word, an image, or up to a paragraph of text.   Below, I list a link to the story, the idea as given to me (shortened in a few cases), the genre I would put the story in and the name of the friend who gave me the idea.

 

2 - Lets Roll guy not on plane - Action - for Brent


21
 - Nighthawks - Horror - for Cindy


3
 - Snakes on a Train - Drama - for Shadow

 

1  - No ideas and no long term memory - Sci-Fi (meditation on the drake equation) - for Carl and Ali


18
 - No matter what I do I look like an a**hole - Drama - for Mike and Christine

 

20 - Interstellar Cosmonaut - Sci-Fi - for Noah

 

13 - Wumpits - Sci-Fi-Fantasy - for Harry

 

22 - Stressed out girl at work - Psychological Drama - for Zvi

 

23 - A bunch of old people talking - the gathering - please no axes. - for Danelle


6
 - Ex-con gets a smartphone - Sci-Fi - for Don

 

I am currently writing ten of my short stories based on my own ideas.  I'll post them at some point, as they have basically all merged into one big story.  When I'm done with that I'll probably start in on stories for friends again, because that was a lot of fun, too.
