I wrote Time to Pay the Piper back in the spring of 2000. I had been injured at work and was stuck answering phones for a couple of weeks and the idea for this particular short had been bouncing around in my head for a few years. So on a rather slow day I spent a couple of hours between calls writing and this was the result.
Then idea itself was inspired by a couple of friends I had growing up that found it rather amusing to torture small animals, a hobby I just couldn't get my head around. So I thought that would be ironic if people like that had to go through the same cruelties themselves that they inflicted except that the punishers would be the animals themselves doing the payback. Time to Pay the Piper was the ensuing result, hope you enjoy it.
Writer's Sojourn is a place where I share short stories I have written along with things that are happening in my journey to become a published writer.

What the Future Holds
My hope is to regularly post updates on my adventure in getting my manuscript, Ascent of the Holy Blade, published and to post various stories I have written.
My first step on said journey will be finishing my submission email to an agent in San Francisco and eight weeks from now I will have my first rejection and be considered a true aspiring author. lol.
