Jack in the Wald
A sequel to my story "Jack Simple". A year has passed since Jack made his escape from the Village of Brecht. Now settled in a new life, he encounters an ancient force in the woods that is beyond his understanding. One thing is clear: this force has laid claim to Jack, and it will not stop until it owns him. Suggestive themes (nothing explicit). Story is currently being rewritten.

Jack Simple
Jack is a Woodcutter. Eidna is a Housemaiden. Fate draws them together, but Fate is complicated. A human story that takes place in a fantasy world, my goal is to show the magic that resides within the life of the common, everyday people that fantasy so often ignores. Sexually suggestive themes, but nothing explicit. Story is currently being rewritten.

1Jack on the Crag »
An ancient citadel, built of stone and secrets, hides an artifact that could turn the tide of a cosmic immortal war. It's up to two children-an orphaned boy and a mysterious girl with terrifying powers-to find the artifact before it can be claimed by the forces of oblivion. A prequel to the Jack stories, but can be read as a standalone.

141Soldier Jack »
The concluding installment! A sequel to Jack Simple and Jack in the Wald, but can be read as a standalone. Crushed between two warring Kingdoms, thrust into the midst of a bloody frontier war, Jack does everything he must to protect his family, his liberty, and his home. Rated 'M' for violence, sexuality, and some coarse language. Reviews would be most appreciated!
