Hey, guys. Sorry I haven’t posted anything new in a while. I have been writing plenty; I just feel behind with updating this site. I’m actually looking to re-design it on a better server, but that’s another issue. Anyway, the subject of literary agents treating authors as disposable has been coming up in my Twitter … Continue reading

Starfall Street, Complete (Penny Saves Paldea #50)
The plan for Arven and the Team Star bosses to help with bringing supplies to the lab got dashed in short order. Within an hour of getting to work, Penny had listed five different absolutely necessary items, none of which Arven could discern the look of, let alone find. After she named three more items, … Continue reading
Penny’s Breakthrough (Penny Saves Paldea #49)
Turo curled into a fetal position, trying to grasp his shoulders, but his fingers found nothing solid to grasp. The last few moments he could remember replayed again and again in his mind. He was talking to the children, yes. Expressing regret for his failures as a parent. As an adult who should have protected … Continue reading
The New Sword (Penny Saves Paldea #48)
The soft natural light of the cave was a sharp contrast to the bright artificial lights inside. Thankfully, Penny’s eyes were quick to adjust. If anything, this place energized her. Another item to add to her list of stuff she didn’t want to think about. “Why are we taking orders from Nemona again?” Arven demanded … Continue reading
Firescourge (Penny Saves Paldea #47)
The moment Penny closed her eyes, she found herself standing in that strange void once again. Wo-Chien stood across from her, but the poor thing looked horrible. In all the images Raifort had shown them, it had a distinct form, like a massive grass-type Magcargo, using wooden tablets as its shell. Now it looked more … Continue reading
Icerend (Penny Saves Paldea #46)
The numbers were not good. And in this human-oriented world where precious few things were quantifiable, numbers were all Ai had to rely on. A few of her readings showed an optimistic curve. The dark stakes’ energy reading, which fluctuated wildly on its best days, had grown much more stable. But the numbers that mattered? … Continue reading
The New Tablet and the New Vessel (Penny Saves Paldea #45)
The moment the ghost left, a cry of pain blasted through Penny’s skull. Wo-Chien was not happy. The crack of light in front of her vanished. She braced herself, knowing what was coming. But the effect was akin to prepping a thunderstorm and finding herself in a hurricane. The power of the ruinous Pokémon slammed … Continue reading
A Long Overdue Reunion (Penny Saves Paldea #44)
Before long, the group reached a meadow of tiny flowers and swaying grasses. If the world hadn’t tried to end so recently, no doubt it would have at least a few picnickers around. But as things stood, the space was empty. Which was exactly how Penny wanted it. “Arven and I talked last night after … Continue reading
Final Plans & Midterm Exams (Penny Saves Paldea #43)
“Cheers,” Arven said as he served up his own plate last. “To Team Star merely being questioned about a disappearing lake instead of arrested for it. May the group of us all live to see Paldea in one piece next week.” Each person around the table held up a plastic cup filled with lime soda … Continue reading
Dinner and an Averted Crisis (Penny Saves Paldea #42)
“Young man? Arven! Can you hear me?” Click! Penny gritted her teeth and checked her tablet screen. Her call had failed again. It went though each time she tried, and she caught snippets of someone yelling Arven’s name, but the spotty coverage would fail before she could get any real answers. Finally, after no less … Continue reading
