Facelift Is Complete.

In case  you hadn’t noticed, the website has had a makeover  :)

I’m not entirely thrilled with the rotating header images, but they’ll do for now.

How do you like the changes?  Thumbs up or thumbs down?

Secret Fringe

This story is noteworthy because, in general, Shannon cannot write short stories.  Every time he tries, it ends up around 30,000 words.  He wrote this with one goal in mind: to make it as short as possible.  As of this writing, it is the shortest story he has written.

Delta Ghosts

This ghost story originated as a writing prompt in a creative writing class where students came up with settings and then swapped them.  Shannon received “1940-45, Louisiana, an old cabin with broken down furniture.”  It’s not a very scary story.  It’s included here because he did a decent job with establishing the setting and mood.

Salt & Pain: the Beginning

This is the beginning of a novelette Shannon wrote in the late nineties.  This section was published in Confluence a few years ago.  It is unclear if he will do anything more with the project.  It’s too short  to stand on it’s own and too long  to be a short story, but Shannon has no desire to change the story in any fashion.

Scattered Thoughts In a Moment’s Peace

When this story was written, only Rangers wore black berets.  That’s changed now.  The Rangers wear tan berets now because the regular army decided all of them should wear black ones.  This story has seeds of truth, but is more fiction than not, hence the “fiction” classification.  Shannon will not clarify which portions are true, so don’t ask.
