Ape's writing

[Mendalla]

I have been writing, and posting, stories and poems on StoriesSpace.com for a few years now. I shared my latest poem in another thread. Below are the three parts of a trilogy of short stories I wrote entitled The Chronicles of Tana the Healer. The character of Tana has become a favorite of mine and I am currently writing (or trying to write, it is not going smoothly) a sequel about her daughter set c. 15-20 years after the end of this series.

To update this one, the first part of her daughter's story is out but definitely needs further development and none of my sequels have really caught fire yet. I don't think I even mention Tana in this one, just that one character's mother is a healer.

I thought I was the only typing ape around these parts.

New story is coming soon. I always try to do a horror story for Halloween. More often that not, I never get there but this year is looking good. Family secrets and a mysterious well in the basement of the old family home. I can be bit anal about editing but this one is coming together rather nicely so will be probably be up sometime this week. Will post a link once it is posted.

New story is up on my usual site. It's short (Flash, which means 1000 words or less) fantasy story about warrior meeting an unusual challenge. There's some more commentary in a thread on that site which I will link below the link to the story itself.

Since I have not been here for a while, my latest never got posted here. I took 3rd in a competition entitled "It's Not What It Looks Like" on StoriesSpace, my usual site. My entry has a couple who are "not what they look like" to family and friends attending a wedding and having things go awry.

With a new poetry competition running on StoriesSpace, I have been pursuing my poetic muse. She has been playing hard to get. However, I finally got her attention long enough get this out. It's a meditation on beauty, natures, and the fundamentals of reality.
