Welcome to my mainstream fiction files. There is something for everyone, ranging from PG to NC-17, drama to comedy, from the mundane to the fantastic (at times the improbable!). The writings listed here are PG to PG-13. For the more adult-oriented stories, go to "Inside Passion Magic".
I've arranged by type – novels and novellas, short stories, series, flash fiction, and works in mind.
I use this legend so readers can tell which stories are finished and which are still continuing.

The following long-overdue project is slated for Winter 2008. Great premise but it needed some serious overhaul. My plate's really full these days or else it would start much sooner!
