On this page you will find some of the fiction I’ve written over the last decade (2013—2023). Some varied genres here: humor, horror, fantasy, screenplays, parodied autobios, book excerpts, etc. Several works here feature characters within a shared universe, the world of the University of X which was loosely inspired by UT Austin but a zanier and more slightly sinisterly magical version existent nebulously somewhere in the US Southwest? The first two entries here remain, for the moment, my favorite short stories I’ve composed, both dating from Spring 2021. Beyond those, the remainder of stuff here is categorized by genre mainly.

So these first 20 pages were meant to be the initial scenes for a 100-120pg movie I was beginning to write in 2019-ish. I doubt I’ll keep pursuing it but still I was pleased with the general chaos of this opening.
Short Scenes:
The Trust
Jürgen Objects

Excerpt from Abyssmos (tentatively titled) by tdav
The Cork of the World (Act I, Chapter III)
This was a rough draft for a chapter in a dark fantasy/sci-fi novel I had been working on in 2019 iirc. Actually have been continuing to work on this project, though it has transformed so entirely since then that not a single quality of or character featured in this chapter bears any resemblance to today’s drafts. Still fun to look back on though.
