SCRIBBLER—A Portal to Fiction!

The stories I offer are meant to be read in bed with a cup of coffee on a rainy day…

At the moment, I’m NARRATING my new story FREEDOM HOUSE…and experimenting with video:

SCRIBBLER on BTC-TV…Channel 3

And let me tell you that the SHORT STORY section of my ‘Stack will ALWAYS BE FREE.

Obligatory author’s photo…

I want to make you an offer…

Sign up with my Substack at $30 for the year, or $10 per month

And the Reason...?

It’s the lowest Substack allows me to charge…and it’s in Canadian funds!

I know I’m not everyone’s cup of tea, and I want you to know that I’m ok with that! You have my permission to scroll on by if you want…we’re cool.

But if you SUBSCRIBE to my PAID page, at $10/month, or $30 for the year, don’t ask me to reimburse you if you’re not satisfied.

It doesn’t work that way.

So what do I write?

Like everyone else, I’m writing a SERIAL NOVEL. I put it up every WEDNESDAY behind the paywall…Right now, I’m offering THE SHIELD OF LOCKSLEY one chapter at a time, in its entirety.

Join Locksley, a young bachelor Knight on the adventure of a lifetime. Set during the end days of Camelot, he sets off on a reluctant quest to help a princess, and is soon on course to help save the kingdom…
This is not your father’s King Arthur, but a bold new take on an old classic made for a more mature audience.

And Sunday, on STORIES, AFTER EIGHT I post novellas and novelettes that I READ OUT in segments every Sunday, after 8 am

Like what, you ask?

How about a tragic love story that takes place in Africa during the Mau Mau uprising of the 50s?

Or maybe you’d like an historical thriller?

JACK OF DIAMONDS is on hiatus!

His name is Artemus Spencer, and he’s the new anti-hero. He’s a cad, and a thief; a liar, a cheat, and a womanizer. He does “buildering” (you know, those fools who climb the outside of buildings, freestyle?) JACK OF DIAMONDS is a sexy romp through 1923 London, with White Russian aristocrats, London gangsters, and Irish gun-runners. Yes, there’s sex, and a stolen Stradavarius violin. There’s more sex, and then a murder; sex again, and another murder…and then there’s Hell to pay.

LISTEN to ME reading my STORIES, AFTER 8: Long, lingering, literary tales, meant for a rainy day, and sitting up in bed. I write about the heart and the pain of hardship...because Happy Endings come at a cost...and then I READ them out for you.
