Writing
This is specifically for writing, mainly fiction.

Weapons
Argath bent his hulking body over the bench. His thick fingers were bent to the work of shaping the small pins down into place. They were to hold the ruby in its mount. The dull red gem looked like a large drop of blood frozen in motion. It contrasted with the gold wirework on the pommel.

Inspiration
Had a hard time concentrating today. I decided to turn that into writing about a way I will sometimes try to fight writer's block and how weird it is. I managed to write something which feels like a victory.

The Oath
This one was odd because I feel like I want to write more on it but I am not sure. I liked the notion of figuring out what to swear on.

The Climb
Day 5 of my Flash Fiction February entries. The suggested prompt was "Challenge" so I went with a story about a climb in my Space Gods setting I keep revisiting.

On a Wing
My wings stretched as far as I could reach. I was trying to extend my glide, so I could make it to the city without too much work.

The noise blotted anything else out but my thoughts.

Heart Murmurs
More flash fiction. This time I was going for more of a romance scene which is not my usual line. It is romance with superheroes. I am still a nerd.

Time is an illusion
“Time is an illusion.” Was the first words he said to me. His bright eyes smiled mischief and too much of time showed on his face. The robes marked him as an elder priest in the golden temple.

Space to Breathe
A bit of Flash Fiction set in space.

Setting Project: The People of Ballad
More world building for the world of Ballad. This time I look at the native (not human) races of Ballad.

Setting Project: Redefining Humanity for Ballad.
This is my second article exploring the world Ballad. I am going to dig into the thing that started me thinking about the setting in the first place. I started with the notion of a setting where humans were rare and treated with distrust. This would not be unlike how Drow or Tieflings were treated in other settings. What would that kind of setting look like? A thread started by my friend Rabbit over on Twitter certainly contributed to that line of thought. Before I dig too far in, let me address the history here.
