How often do you want to see new posts?

Yes, yes - I know - as often as possible - but that's not an option. 😉

While I am 'ahead' of my current posts here, and there are several parts to come, I wanted to know particularly from you, my awesome patrons, how often you want to see posts arrive.

Would once a week be enough? More? Less? Do you even care?<...

Audio: The first test (Darien pt 1)

Hey! Little Saturday project here. This is an AI-generated audio version of this post, the first part of the Darien story that's ongoing right now.

I'm fascinated by the possibilities of AI audio, especially as an indie autho...

Casual browsing (Darien pt 4)

The woman was walking through the store, pausing every few steps to check an item here, lift up some clothing there.

Andrew couldn’t take his eyes off her.

It wasn’t that she was stunningly beautiful, although she was definitely attractive. It wasn’t that she was dressed in some provocative way; she was prac...

Welcome!

Hey all and thanks for dropping by. I've started a Patreon as you can see. So you might be asking why I did it, what you're going to get (although hopefully that's obvious here) and why I'm doing it now. Here's the details.

He checked his appearance once more, using his p...

Merry Christmas, Tom

Tom rubbed sleep from his eyes as he walked downstairs, the cool of their air-conditioned home starting to bring him back to life from a deep sleep. While outside the temperature was touching 90F, inside their tastefully furnished condo, it was a pleasant 70F, even today.

Christmas Day.

He smiled to himself as he ...

The first test (Darien pt 1)

(Large GIF; give it a moment to load)

Darien could barely believe his eyes. "Oh my god," he said in a stunned tone, as he looked at his brand new face in the nearby mirror.

"It's perfect," he told himself. "Just perfect."

The face, a latex-silicone mask that Darien had created himself, was of a woman who un...
