David – I know. Give it a go, though. You might surprise yourself.

On the hand, it could be one of those times where someone says “Imagine yourself back in a time and a place where you felt completely safe and loved, your favourite good place” etc etc and you and I desperately scrabble around in our memory for such a place and come up empty.

Pan — I published them one at a time (along with many others) on Gather.

Lori — Thanks … glad you enjoyed these!

Trucie — I’m sure you’re familiar with the age-old advice to writers: “Write what you know”?

That would be why the theme you mention is so conspicuously absent.

They’re beautifully expressed, with some clever and original ideas at their core (especially Surprise and Destroyer), but I’d very much like to read something from you on Joy.

Kick-a**!!! Thanks for the pleasure — having just hacked my way through Jane Austen for class, these remind me of her pleasure in painted miniatures.

These are great. Am I right in thinking I’ve read some of them somewhere else?

These are scary good. I’ve read ‘Destroyer’ before. It made me shiver then and now.
