I Write!

Welcome to writing.idlecircuits.com! Here you will find a number of stories that I have written, from very short (6 words or less) to multi-chapter projects. You are free to read all of the stories on this site, but do take note of the very simple license.

To get started, use any of the links to the right to select the type of story that you would like to browse - Very Short Stories are usually one paragraph or less, while Flash Fiction is one to two pages, usually 1000 words or less. Short Stories represent longer works covering a single situation or narrative, whereas Multi-Chapter stories represent longer works, novellas, and novels (none of which have been posted yet, but which may show up in the future). In addition to the story pages, you can also browse the front section, which I update occasionally with news, interesting writing-related things that I come across, and some of my very short stories.
