Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of — but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.

— Lazarus Long, The Notebooks of Lazarus Long, from Robert A. Heinlein’s Time Enough for Love (1973)

I must create a system, or be enslaved by another man’s. I will not reason and compare: my business is to create.

— William Blake, Jerusalem: The Emanation of the Giant Albion

These works may contain themes not suitable for younger readers.

There’s no porn here. However, there are sexual issues and other possibly sensitive topics discussed in varying levels of detail. It’s a diverse planet we live on and, somewhere, someone just might take offense to something I’ve written. And to that person, I say… You’ve been warned.

If you’re completely new to the Terra Fabula story, I recommend you start with Blizzard.

Terra Fabula ###

The chapters collected here recount the travels of a Val’Traxan (a humanoid foxen-alien) as he attempts to live out his life in a universe that won’t let him die in peace. In a former life, this work was entitled Earth Isn’t So Bad.

Paradigm Shift (on hiatus) ###

Terra Fabula’s story continues half a century later. Humans have a well-established colony on the Moon. A small team has resided on Mars for several years. Tarioshi has befriended a young college student in order to help him out of a rut of depression, and things are not going as she’d planned. Elsewhere, the recently rechartered Commonwealth of United Worlds has voted to begin contact procedures with the little blue planet.

This project is on hold until more of Terra Fabula is published. Spoilers, you know.

The Burn Pile ###

Tangents, Not-Canon, and/or Under-Construction pieces. This also includes works written by others.

Happy Thoughts ###

Nice things people say on the Internet. I didn’t know people still said nice things on the Internet! Color me surprised…
