Imposter
He stands out from the crowd. A gunfighter can't just pass through a town like normal people do. He'll find his reputation precedes him. When a saloon girl expresses a need for a paid killer—well, life in a small town can get complicated for a fella quick. Especially when the bullets start to fly. A western short story. This story was first published in Frontier Tales in July 2002. If you like Westerns, check them out and see lots of good stories.
The Rum Shop
“A man oughta be able to walk home drunk without some damn fool running him off the road, you know." The hub of life in the islands is the local rum shop and though living in the Windward Islands in the Caribbean might be a little different than other places, maybe move at a slower place, the problems of life are pretty much the same as anywhere else. Still, it's a different kind of world.
With Slight Tremors
Stop right there! It’s time to take a break from the world you think you know and to step through into another one. These five stories offer a guided tour of new possibilities and different places. They rely on magic, science, and sleight of hand, and will betray your trust at every opportunity. But just because they are fantastic, doesn’t mean they aren’t real (somewhere). You can stay tucked away on a safe perch and let this book unveil the genre-bending consequences of rather minor changes to a world that might be the one you live in, or might not; you can follow the way events unravel when cause and effect aren’t quite so boringly predictable. Stories of ideas are, however, always dangerous. Consider yourself warned. This collection includes: —Is That Asking Too Much? —Next Time, I’ll Shoot Him —Hitchhikers —The Last Duck —What Goes Up...

If you could ever get a handle on it, maybe you’d figure out how to play things so you came out ahead, at least for a while. A story of loss and recovery and learning to take things as they come.

Now her tendency to stick her nose into the wrong working of things is tearing that worled apart! Her work and life have fused together and it's gotten impossible to separate them. Crime and love, passion and paranoia make for a strange, sometimes unpalatable, brew. A compelling story of urban crime, greed, and corruption and the danger of looking too closely at any of it.

The Last Duck
How would you know when the last of anything is gone? Everything has an expiration date, a point that it simply is no more. Most of the time we aren’t even aware we’ve reached that time until we look around and see that our era has ended, our favorite ice cream flavor is no longer made, we can’t get a telephone that doesn’t connect to the internet, or the last duck is gone. This is a story about two people, quite like us, living in another time, a difficult time, possibly in another place, but one that looks a lot like this one might become not far down the road of time.
