Just inside the door was another door with a small space like an alcove with a couple of antique plush chairs. There were no windows on the walls and a small lamp left the corners pretty dark. “Wait here,” she instructed. I looked at the heavy frame on the artwork hanging over the chairs and […]

And before that, all of that, I had to go visit the company physician so he could try and convince me to get the implants. There was no telling where I’d have to go to find Avery next and I didn’t know how long I’d be away. Then there was that envelope in my possession. […]

Chapter 2 Seeking Curare I left Dersuss in a haze of anger and confusion. First of all, the anger. It was all-consuming. The confusion came in because I couldn’t figure out why. But the why didn’t bother me until after some time had passed. When I left him at the trader’s station- which was really […]
Getting Grub Stage Going
The beginning I’m just going to start posting here as I work on this story. It’s the last in the series of two already completed. But I’m taking a different approach to the start of this one. And please keep in mind that this is the rough draft. I may add more, take things out, […]
Long Overdue
I haven’t posted since earlier this year. And I suppose that’s a good indication of how much attention my fiction writing hustle has been getting. Yeah, I’ve been slacking. While I haven’t been putting words on the screen, I’ve been painting and making paints, and trying to drum up some money selling art. Let’s just […]
Finally finished 2nd Hit!
I know it took me forever. Hopefully the next book won’t take that long. But today I typed ‘The End’ on the second book in my three book series. It’s available at Amazon and the other ebook retailers out there. Only Amazon will have the paperback, though. >> E-book ($2.99) or Get the Paperback now […]
Testing the new editor
The day must have finally arrived. WordPress has updated to Gutenberg. I hope this works better than the beta version I’ve been using over at the Wild Ozark website… it may be the theme I’m using there that is giving me so much grief, though. We’ll see when it comes to saving this post. If […]
Wild Places, Wild Hair
I live in a pretty wild and remote place. Living out here can lead to wild hair and a good tangle every once in a while. The other morning I slid and climbed down a steep hillside while tracing the line that brings water to the camper. Somewhere along the way it was blocked and […]
Chapter 1: A.R.S.A.
1| A.R.S.A. “ID, please,” a voice said from behind me. Of course. I knew better than to loiter. Ordinarily I would have noticed someone approaching. But today my nerves were on edge. My situational awareness lagged because I let the anxiety of what I was about to do take the lead. My name is Treya. […]
Musings during tax time
I’ve had my head buried in product descriptions and ledgers this week. It’s tax time. Well, it’s been ‘tax time’ for a few months now and the deadline is looming. Hence my renewed dedication to getting it finished. I also have some Forest Folk I want to list on the Wild Ozark shop pages, but […]
