SCRIBBLER—the Golden Years!

I offer stories meant to be read on a rainy day while you’re sitting in bed with a cup of coffee.

At the moment, I’m reading one of my story THE DAWN PATROL out loud…

LOOK…I just want to clarify!

I want to state that my SHORT STORY section will ALWAYS BE FREE.

I want to make you an offer. ..

The BLACK FRIDAY/BOXING DAY BLOW-OUT SALE!

Sign up for $30/year (Canadian!)

But No Refunds…

  • Any financial support you offer me, will be considered a donation. (It’s not that I’m a “dick”, I just don’t know—and can’t be bothered to learn—how to reverse payments. Forgive me?)

Reasons...

  • I plan to offer my PAID subscribers a hardcover copy of 3 different stories every year and need to collect enough funds.  

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

So what do I write?

I write SERIAL NOVELS that I put up every WEDNESDAY

and novellas and novelettes that Iput up and READ OUT every Sunday night as…

SHORT STORIES After 8… ☕️

Stories like what, you ask?

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

THE SHIELD OF LOCKSLEY

Read JACK OF DIAMONDS.

I put this story up at a time when I only had 28 followers. It’s been sitting in my files waiting for me to come back. For $30 a year (Canadian), you can have this, and a hardcover copy of other stories. (Three a year.) In case you forgot, $30 Canadian is about $21 American. That’s about $7/book.

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 sides 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.

Read my SHORT STORIES AFTER 8: I write long, lingering, literary tales meant for a rainy day in bed; I write about affairs of the heart and the pain of hardship...because Happy Endings come at a cost...
