The stories and poems on this page are of wildly diverse genres. Currently featured are
Fantasy, Fiction,
Horror, Non-Fiction,
Poetry,
Anime Fan Fiction, and a collection of
links.
While the authors may vary in skill and ability, all share a common love for the craft of writing. The stories linked to this page meet two criteria: they are all short to medium length stories or poems, and I like them (and I hope you will too). If you like what you read here (or even if you don't), please let the authors know. A little encouragement or constructive criticism goes a long way. Besides, it's nice to know that someone is reading your story! |
From time to time, existing works will be removed due to broken links or lack of a valid email address for the author. The authors of these works will be listed on the missing authors page. If you know the whereabouts of someone there, be sure to let me know!
