I have written many short stories, three of which have been published. Two of these stories were published for an early YouTube-esque website called Always I. The unique thing about the site was that the published them as sound files to be listened to. I was, sadly, never able to get the sound files before the site was bought up and removed by hollywood dot com. The stories in their written form though can be found here.
Silence was originally an opening to a much larger interactive story that my friends and I created. I got all of their permission before submitting it to Always I. I came up with this opening after reading a really good book, Mao II by Don DeLillo from my post-modern class in college.
Civil War was a character piece I was doing about three of my main hero’s to get some background info on them and how they would react to certain things. It was highly inspired by my favorite movie The Fifth Element, in which I likened the flashbacks kind-of like the constantly changing scenes.
The third piece I wrote was for a book series inspired by a city in Second Life that I am a part of. Tales of New Babbage The Steampunk City: Volume Two is a collection of short stories from the inhabitants of the Second Life city New Babbage.
The Message
This story I published under my characters name Cyan Rayna. This was inspired by all the lore created about the city of New Babbage.
This collection and others can be purchased here and here.
These are just a couple of the pieces I have written, the only ones of which I have had formally published. Please contact me if you’d like to see more.
