Give a min-maxed adventuring party a dragon in the dungeon, or some orcs, or even a green slime, and they'll be pretty sure how to respond; but there are other monsters in the manual, and if you pull them out of the dungeon and into the present day, who knows how more normal people would react -- or if they'd even be able to recognize them for what they are.

A return to the themes of a once-a-week project (https://www.wattpad.com/story/169529894-monsters-of-the-week) originally published in 2015, Relicts & Revenants takes more randomly-selected entries from the AD&D Second Edition Monstrous Manual and re-stages them in new environments -- a demilich in remote subarctic Quebec, an imp in the burned-over firewakes of California, a mist dragon fleeing climate change in the south of China -- for thirteen new stories of fantasy, horror, and the generally weird, publishing Mondays from January through March 2021.


This series is now and complete, and collected in
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0917QCJ69
including an additional new novella, "The Caged and the Free".

Gates of Heaven

This is a collection of my poetry. Each individual chapter is a standalone poem, and they aren't in any particular order.I'll add to it if I create any more, but they tend to be spontaneous so I don't have a schedule for updates."Gates of Heaven" is the name of my favourite special limit hand in Mah Jongg, which I play regularly, hence the name is somewhat personal.
