You won’t live through it this time.” Jaska belched as he refilled his whiskey. “She’s too strong now.” He grinned. “And the Tracker might kill you before she can.”

Allgood sighed. “KLS-9 has belonged to me all her life. I’ll get her back.”

Here to share writing nonsense with the #writingcommunity and to hear wisdom from #booksky and #readers. My flimsy opinions are my own, albeit they're occasionally influenced by my characters.

“I know this place.” Rebecca said. “Windhaven. They show those happy-go-lucky vaccination commercials on the vidscreens. And I think they run fertility clinics?”

Kerry’s words echoed in Isaiah’s mind.

“I wasn’t born. I was created.”

Me: wow I'm writing good stuff in this novel tonight, I think I'll just keep on trucking

My brain: dude it's 11pm and we're old, wrap it up

Me: come on I used to do all nighters all the time

Brain: you used to do handsprings too, until that last time

Knees: yeah fuck you for that, by the way

The Dark Side of Super is a collection of interconnected stories woven as a novella. Part heist, part thriller, all existential dread, come find out the cost of being super.

Whether that's mental, physical, emotional, or otherwise, power never comes free.

Kerry stared at the military vehicle across the street.

“It can’t be.”

The logo … different, but the name was unmistakable. What the fuck were they doing in Kingston?

Ignoring her own intuition, Kerry went outside.
