A Story in the Spider and Fly Universe
A man spots a familiar looking woman in a hotel restaurant. But then notices that her escort is an even more familiar looking man. Then his life gets complicated... again!

A Story in the Choices Universe
Well life doesn't always go the way we would like it too. But then again it appears that sometimes life has a way of putting things, as they should be. Or maybe there is someone out there with a master plan. This is a weepy romance, so don't say you haven't been warned. Written and set in 2006.

A little wander through the realms of the improbable. Or maybe a wander into the possibility that those who have passed-on might be able to tamper with the lives of the living. No actually ghostly apparitions, more the possible influence or thoughts they might introduce into the unconscious mind.

This is what some people might refer to as a "Seasonal Story." It has undergone some slight modification since it first appeared on the Internet several years ago. I'm afraid that I cannot recall whether those changes have not been proofread, but time waits for no man.

A Story in the Spider and Fly Universe
A little nonsensical fun I've had writing over the last year or so. A kind of throwback to the Science Fiction of the 1950s and 60s
