Welcome
The purpose of this website is to entertain you, the reader, with fictitious tales of strange happenings following characters from varied walks of life. While I will focus on writing Fantasy, Sci-Fi and Horror stories, I'd also like to explore narratives fitting other genres—from Westerns with gunslinging cowboys to Comedies following the lives of simple people tragically ruined by unforeseen circumstances…

I chose to write screenplays for both—one 90 minute (90 pages) feature and a 60 minute (60 pages) short—back to back.
It was during writing these that I realised my passion lied in storytelling—visual or literary, the medium was mostly irrelevant. If the story is good it can flourish anywhere.
*Wait, what's this?*
Once upon a town called Dreadery, a filthy pit of ceaseless villainy, there came torrential raven unkindness. Preceded first by a rumbling growl deep beneath the crusty ground. Then a rain of red the clergy cried wasn’t blood, though they cried with dismay at the townsfolk’s disarray. After the quake and scarlet spate, strange disease spread among the adulterate, affecting them worse than anything prior. After such horrors, came something worse: A circus, to all but the most peculiar of gentle ponce, hag, beast and were... (Next)
