About me - Like most who visit this site, I have always felt out of step and finding places like BigCloset and authors like Maggie Finson, Morpheus, The Professor, 02bxx, (and many, many others) helped me work through some tough times. At some point, I started writing my own stories, first publishing on Fictionmania, eventually taking the plunge into the scarier world and the more serious authors you find on BigCloset. My latest story is Widow's Peak as story about a insecure virgin who is dared by his friend's to visit a wizened nymphomaniac on the night of Halloween. I started writing this one in 2018 and as it is now 2024, it is safe to say I took my time with it. This is another of my stories I grew to love and have rewrote the story a dozen times. I meant it to be a dark tale and I certainly accomplished that task. I hope it doesn't drive too many away before they get to finish. The story before it is 'Changing Gears', a story that sat on my computer for 15 years before I finally decided to publish. Unfortunately I hit a mental block posting it as a serial and a week turned into a month,etc. I am planning to finish it by the end of the year. My apologies to anyone I've left hanging in the meantime. I hope you enjoy these stories or any of my other stories. My wish is others might find them a useful diversion like the ones did for me back in the day. Like all authors, I love getting feedback. Criticism is always welcomed as long as it is constructive.

Below is a listing of all my stories. Instead of copying the blurb, I've added a little personal flavor. They are listed in order of my preference.

	'Small Town Boy' will always be my favorite story. It's not because it is better than the others, but because it was where I studied transgender in all its shapes and forms. To write about Steve, I had to investigate everything TG and put myself in his shoes. It allowed me to see the world in a way I hadn't before.
	'The Last Perfect Day' is a short story which came to me as I was watching the movie 'The Sandlot'. I used that movie and "Mean Girls" for inspiration. You'll have to read it to understand. I enjoyed writing this one, and I hated letting it go of the "Bees". Once I started writing about them, I didn't want to stop.
	'Widow's Peak' is a story about an insecure virgin who is dared by his friend's to visit a wizened nymphomaniac on the night of Halloween. I started writing this one in 2018 and as I published it in 2024, it is safe to say I took my time with it. I rewrote the story a dozen times not because it was bad but because I love it so much. At it's core, the story is a mashup of The Great War, the Roaring 20s, Transgender, and Halloween -- It makes more sense if you read it. Be warned... the story is more graphic and darker than I normal delve. I've struggled with this type of story and it's the best I've done in that genre.
	'Mystic Godfather' came to me in a flash of inspiration, and I wrote the whole thing in two weeks. The rush meant it could use more editing, but I've left it alone. My goal when I started was to have stories with TG elements as an aspect, not the focus, and that is true of this story.
	I sat on 'Changing Gears' for almost 15 years until finishing it. This is my purest magic series but I couldn't pull the trigger. It seems like the kind of story that would do better at fictionmania than BigCloset but I'll be interested to see what people think.
	I wrote 'Morale Support' for Big Closet's 25th anniversary contest which had a premise of 'someone getting a fresh start'. I wrote it quickly and was surprised how well it turned out.
	'Kissing Cousins' is the first story I wrote for the 2024 New Year's Contest. It's a personal tale, but you'll need to read it and my related blog post to understand.
	I've wanted to try my hand at a darker story and 'Boys Night Out' is the result. At the heart of this one is how our insecurities can affect how we treat others, and in turn, have an effect on ourselves. I decided to enter it in the 2024 New Year's contest so I only had a max of 5k words. I could have (and maybe should have) written more to flesh out motivations. I do love the story's ending, but I'm not sure other people will.
	'A Brother's Request'" is the first story I ever published. I intended it to be similar to Maggie Finson's 'Heaven and Hell' series with a little bit of 'Spawn' and 'Dead Like Me' thrown in. I was working on "Small Town Boy" at the time, so I posted this first chapter as a standalone to see if anyone responded to my writing. I love the concept of a succubus working to right the wrongs of the world. It would have focused her family, but with the caveat they could never find out the truth. I changed my initial story to make the short story feel complete, and I'm sure anyone who reads the story would have no sense of my plans unless they read this author's blurb.
	'A Walk in the Park' is in a similar vein as "Small Town Boy". I had a lot on my mind as I wrote it and recently reread it. It's a good story, even if I listed it last. I clearly have a high opinion of my talents. :P
Secret message :)

My goal is to release four novel length stories in 2024. It's a lot and anyone who has worked on something that long knows the difficulty. The truth is I've been working on things for years. Below is a taste of stories I worked on in 2023. All of these stories would be easy to serialize. I could have started releasing them years ago but I am continually fiddling with my character's motivations and don't want to hem myself in by setting them in stone. The stories nearest the top of the list are my focus:

Lambs of the Harvest Moon - (60k words - 90% complete) - Phi Lambda Phi sorority invites every freshman to their house on the night of the Harvest Moon. How could any red-blooded boy resist? My newest story and one I'm excited to finish.

Field Days - (120k words - 80% complete) - Inspired by the TG game - 'You Throw Like a Girl'. Boy notices changes. Tries to adapt. Hi-jinks ensue. A better story than my bland description.

Girl on Arrival - (140k words - 80% complete) - Inspired by the movie DOA. A detective finds out he has a week until he transforms into a girl. Can he find his "killer" before the end? Fun story despite some grim turns.

Spirits of the Wild - (50k words - 80% complete) - A story set in Minnesota in 1750 when a young native boy accidentally sets himself on a grand adventure in hopes of saving his tribe. I wrote it a decade ago but didn't like the ending and haven't looked at it since. I've refined my editing since, so this will be a lot of work. :(

Rapture on the Plains - (60k words- 70% complete) - A gunslinger and his sole remaining gang member take refuge in a town not listed on any map. I love this cover. I need to finish it for the cover picture alone.

Order of the Hand - (20k words - 50% complete) - I started writing this in 2016 with 'Hunger Games' meets 'Handmaid's Tale' in mind. Not sure why I decided this story was on my mind back then. :P I fear I'll need to revisit it in November 2024.

Wish Fulfillment - (40k words - 60% complete) - Your standard 'psychic gives you three wishes' story with some unexpected twists. Needs a lot of work.
