Story of an Elephant

Elefant by Giovanni Antonio Guardi

Crocodile Rock (Draft)

A sweltering romance in the heart of Florida!...or is it? Early draft, subject to much revision. An attempt at an idiosyncratic, colloquial, experimental style.

Fragments and Drafts

A few uncompleted drafts. All works in progress:

Alethea (Incomplete/Draft)

Drama about an artist and her muse. This will form the central panel of the Triptych.

Ashes to Ashes (Incomplete/Draft)

A derelict undergoes a startling metamorphosis.

In the Arcade de Voeux (Incomplete/Draft)

A confidential secretary's private confession.

Rattus Again

Polished up the first draft. This is, for the time being, the final copy of the Rattus short story. But I may polish it further. This short story I plan on including with two others that are thematically and visually similar. Together they will form a kind of triptych. The rest of the planned pieces will form their own second collection.

Dance of Rats by Ferdinand van Kessel

Rattus (draft)

First draft. I plan on including this in a greater collection which is still very much a work in progress, but I've got it outlined and pretty much have a solid idea how every story will begin and end. In this piece I've tried to do the exact opposite of what I've done with A Reunion. While that piece was Gothic, this one is very Art Nouveau.

 A short drama exploring the relationship between granddaughter and grandfather.
