The deep, rich blue of an ocean planet filled the viewport. Miss had never seen so much water on a single planet before. To another, it might have been awe-inspiring. To her, it meant a fortune. She knew there were precious minerals waiting under all that water and rock—minerals that were rare in a galaxy … Continue reading Blue

Purple
The first in a new series of stories each inspired by a different colour! The sun rose in hues of violet that fateful morning. It was likely one of the most beautiful sunsets to ever grace the planet, but no one was watching it. In fact, very few were outside at all, and if they … Continue reading Purple
The Lightspeed of Thought
Prompt: Write a story that takes place across ten seconds. “Where are you taking me?” Esmerelda glared at the smiling man standing above her with his hands deep in the pockets of his gilded red coat. The sight of such outdated Earth fashion in space would have been humorous under normal circumstances, but the cold … Continue reading The Lightspeed of Thought
Writeober Day 31: Mask
The mask was the only thing keeping Erix alive. Not only did it hide his face from prying eyes, but it kept him oxygenated in an environment that was rife with carbon dioxide. The atmosphere might have been ideal for an Ov’ok, but to a human like him, it was deadly. Erix stood on the … Continue reading Writeober Day 31: Mask
Writeober Day 21: “This, this makes it all worth it.”
Despite the life-threatening situation, I cheered. I hadn’t thought I’d get this far. I hadn’t even thought I’d escape the station alive. I’d put every single hope on this, and somehow, it was paying off. I was nearly jostled out of my seat by a forceful blast and I reminded isles that I was in … Continue reading Writeober Day 21: “This, this makes it all worth it.”
A Battle of Wits and Wills
The final part in a series of short stories that leads up to the complete unveiling of my new project! Shera Nox didn't rush into deductions and action. Instead, she took a moment to survey the situation. Kr’zani stood closest to her, his head bowed in reverence. She watched his posture minutely relax—he was relieved … Continue reading A Battle of Wits and Wills
Project Pea and the Writing Process
I have written many novels in my life. No really, I have! The only thing is that I'm never satisfied enough with how they turn out to actually do anything with them. Therefore, it's a constant struggle for me to decide whether to polish up old writings or work on new ones, as I'm always … Continue reading Project Pea and the Writing Process
The Game Is On
Part III in a series of short stories that leads up to the complete unveiling of my new project! Adan Stone met Kr’zani’s glare with a smile. He knew the dog didn’t like him, but one day he’d see that his distrust was completely unwarranted. “If I may,” Kr’zani said, sounding as if he resented … Continue reading The Game Is On
The Unwelcome Visitor
Part II in a series of short stories that leads up to the complete unveiling of my new project! Kr’zani kept his nose on alert as he walked out of the engine room. Something wasn't quite right. There was a new smell, something that had been wiped away so thoroughly that he couldn't but catch … Continue reading The Unwelcome Visitor
The Drabbles of a Dreamer
Introducing my very first fiction book, coming June 30th! Well, it's kinda complicated. It's actually a collection of really short stories rather than a book, but...you get what I mean. Several months ago I realised that I had tons of short stories just sitting around in my Documents folder that I had written over the … Continue reading The Drabbles of a Dreamer
