Works of Fiction
Creating characters, settings, or even whole worlds is a long-time joy of mine, one where I get to flex my creative muscles and try to encourage others to do the same. While my blog in general deals with all number of topics, here’s a curated list of all of my works of fiction – content inspired from other works, games I’ve played, or spun out of whole cloth.
My wonderful supporters on Patreon can view upcoming entries several days before general release – thank you for your support!
Currently I have two long-running story arcs going: the Lavis Chronicles which explores a civilization’s first steps onto the galactic stage, and Covert Ops about two American operatives fighting a Bolivian drug cartel. I hope you enjoy!

Covert Ops: Treeline
Sprinting toward an entrenched position has never, in the history of warfare, carried with it a high chance of success. From Flander's Fields in WWI to the Tet Offensive fifty years later, trying to charge a dug-in enemy usually results in a very succinct and wasteful...
Conquest: a Rusted Siege
Elia was not difficult to find once we arrived at the Rust Canyons – several Disfavored soldiers were mocking the defenses her band had erected, taunting her with the promise that they were going to kill their newest prisoners slowly, just so she could hear...
MotW: Self-Sacrifice
Hearing Ismene in combat, alone against innumerable alien creatures, sent Seth into a rage. All of her friends – Tommy, Tammy, and Roger – charged forward to meet the threat head-on, but the 1950s-era greaser did so without regard for his own safety. As...
