short stories
When I was very young I wanted to be a writer. Some people have told me that I ought to pursue the writing and maybe I could get something published one day, but I just don't get a thrill out of it like I do with music, and I very rarely get the inspiration. I find that I'm somewhat restricted in my writing, by my lack of understanding about the human condition. Anyway here are some things that I've written.
This section contains eight of my best short stories. Embedded in one of these tales is instructions on how to get to the "hidden" section of the web-site.
