Bugger. I can fix that.

And hey, I never said this stuff would be good. Or sane.

Eh, maybe it is bad, maybe it is good and i just don't like it . .
sane does not factor into these. if it's good or i like it, then i don't care about sane . . or most anything else, actually ^^

I like the two latest (particularly the occult detectives). They both have good atmosphere, which IMO is the most important thing to establish with a short story.

..but do you proofread?

If I have time, yes. But these are pretty much all first drafts.

"If you look back on human history, there has been progress. Sidesteps, slidebacks, but generally a progression of technology, of thought, of quality of life. We as a generation are guilty of looking backwards. We sift through the rubbish of the last hundred and fifty years, looking for the future we should have, the technologies that were ignored, pushed aside, buried and secreted away because the governments and religions of the time weren't ready for them. Maybe we still aren't ready for them, but the time has come to use them anyway."—Franz von Trollman, Futurist

Is this a reference to something Frank said, or just coincidence?

I think it is a clever and totally original character concept!

On a less weird note, are you going to do the November National Novel Writing Month Thingy?

It's nothing Frank has ever said, and no it's not a coincidence. I just felt like abusing his name a little bit.

Uh...I wasn't planning on it.
