In this section, our narrator Tuttle describes how he and LeCelle left the Scav ship for good. Not as thrilling a flashback as Peg and Wiley’s, but one with long-standing consequences.

So, I’m back in Ohio now, shacking up at my parents’s house. It’s quite nice actually. I love the quieter environment.

I’ve been working diligently on my second novel. I’m posting it online as I go, and you can start reading it here.

In any case, I hope your holidays were good and that 2016 brings you lots of luck. I’ll be needing a fair bit myself.

But to make myself feel better, here’s a list of things I did last year:

  • Invented a combat-based strategy board game
  • Was asked back onto a TV comedy show since my bit last time turned out to be one of their most popular web clips
  • Moved from soul-crushing LA to my hometown
  • Finished a novel
  • Started another novel
  • Served on Jury Duty- and quite liked it!
  • Started making steps to improve my body and mind.

So if you want to see things realistically, maybe a list like this omits a lot of downsides, but if you’re like me and see nothing but downsides whenever you open your eyes, perhaps a little pick-me-up is needed!

Short Story: “Why Not Dimples?” (UPDATE)

Hello. It’s been a while.

I’ve recently completed the first major draft of my novel, “American Saviors,” but the book is not quite ready for mass consumption. However, since some of you have been waiting, here is a short story to whet your appetite.

It is a Horror tale with satiric elements.

Late to an audition, bubbly actress Lacey runs afoul of casting director Leslie, only to find herself confined with the woman in a near death situation.

You can download or read the pdf at this link.

Let me know what you think on Twitter (@shorester).

UPDATE: The story is also available on Wattpad.

I started a sketch group this past month, and here’s our very first sketch, just in time for Halloween! I wrote this one and do the voice of the schpooky guy running the show. I hope you enjoy it!
