( A short story from a sort of... body-horror, gore-tastic, ridiculous setting I really want to do more with. Quite an early work, back when I was more or less posting stuff like this on hobby forums and the equivalent of DeviantArt. ) Jack, Schuyler's Giant Killer by Malcolm 'foozzzball' Cross (8000 words) "The sky… Continue reading Jack, Schuyler’s Giant Killer

Workblog For The Week : Getting worked over by the muse.
After a slightly rocky start to the year, I find myself in the pleasant situation of being able to report that the muse has come along and inspired me to start work on something that may turn into a Troy/Jen novella or serial.

An evening with Terry Pratchett + Tomorrow.
Well. Okay. That was extraordinarily thinglike. I've just returned from Drury Lane (or nearly Drury Lane, in any case) where 'An Evening With Terry Pratchett' was held. Theatre, packed to the brim with people, myself in the absolute nosebleed seats in the balcony back row, all staring down there as the man himself and his… Continue reading An evening with Terry Pratchett + Tomorrow.

You Can Never Go Home
( This is quite an early Estians/War Dogs story, written long before I started work on Dog Country. The protagonist does have a brief cameo in Dog Country, however. ) It was a long way home. Evran had thought that, thousands and thousands of miles away, back in Tajikistan, before things had hit the wall.… Continue reading You Can Never Go Home
