The stories you are about to read are false. Only my name remains to indict the guilty.
- Various poems, 1998-2004
I used to write poems. Kind of a dead-end profession, isn't it?
- The Hermit, October 2005
Self-rating: 2/10. A pretty transparent allegory for my life at the time.
- Simple Gifts, December 2005
Self-rating: 4/10. Cute, but I could really improve on the wordplay.
- The Grass is Always Greener, February 2006
Self-rating: 5/10. Shows promise of becoming a real story.
- Incomplete stories, March 2006
Self-rating: 8/10. These are actually pretty good. I just found them recently.
- The Death of Melpomene, April 2006
Self-rating: 5/10. I'm not sure what I was aiming for.
- The Consolation of Athena, May 2006
Self-rating: 6/10. Very cute, but needs work.
- Hey, I'm the Title! Hi Mom!, August 2006
I can't honestly rate this one, it's both embarrassing and silly and they cancel each other.
- Statement by the Secretary of Commerce on the Right to Free Expression, August 2006
Self-rating: 6/10. Personally, I liked this story, but it might be confusing.
- Television, January 2008
Writing Club exercise.
