It is somewhat harrowing exposing one’s writing for the world to see. I continue to tell myself that most of this is already ‘out there’, and even reviewed to some extent so why worry, right?
I recently published a short story, Into the Shade, via Kindle singles through Amazon. Its self-publishing, but I’m getting my stuff out there, into the world wide web, and letting readers decide if they like my stories…or not.
My History and more writing:
I started out with fanfiction in the world of the Elderscrolls games for the PC. I highly recommend the games of Morrowind and Oblivion (and soon to come Skyrim!) if only for the wonderful lore, open world, and even books you can read in game. I played with my own version of fanfiction that you can find here;
Enduring is Fanfiction set in the Elderscrolls realm. The story is about a young Dark Elf (Dunmer) trying to survive his cruel master, and how he finds his freedom.
Challenges
Challenges was actually the first of my fanfiction series, and originally started as only the first chapter being the entire story. I felt it would be interesting to write from a different view point of NOT the hero, but one of the people that helps the hero save the world.
Chronicles
This is one part of a series I’m working on that continues the adventures of Eiryn and Saber
Guar Adventure
A short fanfic of Saber and Eiryn as they run a short quest, but find a guar on along the way.
Pelagiad Escort
Another short fanfiction but this one from a High Elf’s (Alter) point of view of the hero.
Shades of Oblivion
A work in process. This fanfiction continues in the Oblivion realm of the Elderscrolls game series.
I then move into writing for Associated Content, which was bought out by Yahoo Contributors. I added a poem, an original short story (a vampire story), and some articles. You can find them here;
Homeschooling contrasts with the public school educational system in regards to testing. Many states have no requirements for parents to conduct any tests. This led me to consider the reason to test, and should I test my own son?

Well, it’s good to see you’re still alive. Granted, you’ve never talked to me, but I’ve read all of your fanfiction on the fanfiction.net thing. *Grins* I thought that you’d just up and disappeared, but I suppose the spark for some forms of our writing does leave us from time to time so that we may pursue others. It’s unfortunate that you’ve not updated any of Saber and Eiryn’s stories in some time, but it’s understandable, especially considering what other things take to your life.
I’ve been playing Skyrim, and considering methods to add Saber to the mix, without him being so powerful the Dragonborn has it too easy. But I’m so loving the new game in the Elderscrolls. Its so beautiful to just explore (and avoid getting eaten!).
Thanks for the comment. The comments for the fanfiction prompted me to start my writer’s group and consider writing as more than just a hobby.
