WORKS IN PROGRESS

A TRIO OF FAIRY TALES (working title)

1. Han and Greta
-Short story inspired by "Hansel and Gretel" and Bowie's "Diamond Dogs." Formerly published (under a psuedonym) by Quietus and Tales of the Talisman

To the north of the impact wastelands in the great Melted City, there lived a humble scavenger with his wife and children. 
2. The Witch of the Woods
inspired by Ensagokrans, fairy tales from Sweden by Helena Nyblom
Samuel's lost his memory and his way, wandering the forest. The witch of the woods wants him to stay with her. She tries everything in her power to break the bond between Samuel and his sister - a bond he can't yet remember. And if the witch has her way, he never will.

3. The Beating of Her Bound Heart
an alternate version of  Little Red Riding Hood

JAYNE AND AIDAN + RHYS
Approximately 10,000 words. No horror to this one - the opposite, in fact. Aidan and Jayne are a couple; they own a restaurant together with their good friend, Rhys, who's having a hard time coming to terms with his divorce. This is the story of how they all came together.


NEWS

sequel to BENEATH THE NEON MOON
(planning stages)

EROMENOS (rough draft completed)
 
He was god and man and devil, Pan and Baphomet and cambion. The people of the mountains had always given him what he asked.
  Until now.
  Now he dreams of a man he's been promised, but can't find. The man dreams of him, not knowing why
  And there's someone else, too, someone
who can stand between the god and the dreamer. Someone the god would have killed...if he'd only known he existed.


KILL SWITCH (THE LOST BOYS) - work in progress
 
One man, two personalities - and one of them is an uncontrollable killer. There's nothing for him but a sanitarium or lifelong incarceration, at least until he meets a man who nearly lost his life to a killer much like his alter ego.   
  The two meet as bitter enemies. Terrible things are said and done. Things that can't--shouldn't--be forgiven or forgotten. And despite it all, their relationship takes a turn no one else could ever understand.
  And neither of them knows if it will kill them or save them.
