I’ve decided that I’m going to start posting some of my short stories for your enjoyment. Some will be current, others may be several years old. But all will be a little different than what you’re used to reading. Check back often as stories will be added over the weeks. Please read on and of course comments and feedback are always appreciated. Thanks, J/W
The ‘Descent’
People say there’s a fine line between desire and obsession. I’m here to tell you that there’s an even finer line between obsession and madness. The following short story is a first-hand account of my horrifying brush with the descent into the black pit of madness. Sometimes, just sometimes, it’s impossible to imagine the horrors that take place behind the closed drapes of your neighbors.

‘Survival – The Siege of Lawrence’
Posted previously here on my blog – Here’s the second installment of my vampire serial ‘Survival’. You know I don’t like to regurgitate what already exists, so this is my personal spin of the tried and true vampire lore. A little action, a little drama… and a whole lot of suspense. Hope you like it! J/W

‘Hell… By Any Other Name’
Here’s one of my earlier works… a story of lust and the cost to be paid for acting on that lust – all within the dark world of witchcraft. I did my research and tried to do my best to make it stand-up to those who practice – so let me know if you think I missed the mark. Read on and enjoy! J/W

‘Phased Locked’
Here’s another of my earlier works. I wrote this one some time back for a competition (I didn’t win). If you pay attention to details you’ll see that some of the “state-of-the-art” aspects are quite dated now. It’s dark, somewhat wierd and more than a little spooky. Read on and enjoy! J/W

‘Out of the Shadows’
Want something dark… I mean really dark. What happens when you throw a man with a deadly secret, a “reader” who can perceive your past and a strip bar into the mix. Answer: Tension, blood and lots of T&A. Read on and enjoy but keep in mind this story is best suited for mature audiences! J/W

‘The Asylum’
Spirits, ghosts and an asylum for the criminally insane – what more could you ask for. See what happens when you ignore locked gates and go snooping around where you shouldn’t! J/W

Will there be a survival part 3?
I’m not sure at this time. At one point I was planning on an interactive serial that would end up around 10-15 “chapters”, but after the first two it didn’t seem like I was generating any real interest in the story. I will say that I’m starting to get that writing itch again – and you know when have an itch… you just have to scratch. Thanks for the comment. I hope you enjoy the other free short stories and the free novel. J/W
