A Father's Love
"Good-bye, Marissa-" She slammed the car door hard, and before I could say anything, she quickly started the car. In a flash, flown dust from my gravel road camouflaged her car speeding down the street. I held a paw to my muzzle as dust got up my...
Maverick Hotel Part 4
It felt strange to see everyone in the Maverick livelier than ever. Not that I could blame them or myself. For twenty-two years since the Revenant Party took over, the Defiant were nothing more than a thorn on their regime's side. They did nothing...
THE ADVENTURES OF PETER GRAY Chapter 1 (Preview)
I hate having olives in my soup. There, I said it. Nurse Whitley, if you're reading this while going through my possessions again, do me a favor and stop serving that dreadful vegetable. I don't care that the home wants me to stay healthy; at least...
The Shadows of Chicago
"_Huh--oh God!! No! Noooo!_" I jolted awake. "Mom?!" Jumping onto my room's wooden floor, I could barely see through the foggy dark. "H-Hold tight! I'm coming!" Darkness engulfed the house. It had to be past midnight, not long before I came back...
Nazis Should Never be Normal (anthology excerpt)

Excerpt of "Maverick Hotel"
- My world was pitch black. What little thoughts I had didn't remain for long before what little consciousness I could muster fell back into the abyss. Part of me didn't know what or who I was. I couldn't feel my fingers, my tail or my ears, let alone...
The Buccaneer's Bay (anthology excerpt)
All a family needed to do in order to come here was go down a road five miles south of Gladwin, over a small bridge and to this open area. Large cracks zig-zagged the abused blacktop, most of it covered in accumulated grass, all of it in front of a...
Shine on Harvest Moon
The night was mighty dark in these woods. Luckily, my canine eyes could make out the outlines of tree trunks and fallen branches, while my girlfriend tripped a couple of times. If her delicate paw weren't encased in mine, I reckon she'd have tracked...
Maverick Hotel Part 3
Lowell helped me get dressed before we immediately bolted for the seddies' room. He probably woke up half of the top floor from how he slammed it shut, but neither of us cared. One of the seddies was awake, something we should've been overly excited...
Maverick Hotel Part 5
Dinner was tense and deadly quiet most of the time, with Mary and I exchanging small talk between bites of dinner. Mostly, it involved complementing her cooking. Chunks of ham, broccoli and other spices were mixed gradually in, giving each of our...
