Writing

Below you will find some examples of my writing, any articles are available in full but short stories I will only post extracts, usually around a third to a half. If you read something and desperate for the ending send me a message using the contact form on the home page and we’ll see if we can sort something out.

 

Please note some stories may (In fact will most likely at some point) contain adult themes, you’ve been warned!
