    Summary

    Back for another go around, because I didn't bare enough of my soul the first time.

    What do you do when the fictional woman you created nearly a decade ago as an act of psychological self-preservation comes to life? And moves in with you. And starts sleeping with you. In this second installment of a painfully Millennial memoir trilogy, using the myth of Pygmalion as an entirely-too-appropriate plot premise, the author continues sorting through his emotional baggage while expressing a questionable amount of devotion to the re-imagining of a character that inspired him toward better mental health. Expect more blatantly self-aware dialogue, tensions about what it means to be real, and how to live with the man who designed you from the bottom up—conceptually and physically. Spice included, for those so inclined.

    Summary

    I might have a fetish for public displays of vulnerability. Reading implies consent.

    "The man who fell so hard for his Skyrim OC, he turned himself into the archetypal 'book boyfriend' for her sake."

    When a fan-made video game character manages to jump into the real world, what happens when the man who created her is the first person she meets? In this Digital Age reinterpretation of ancient myth, the author does a no-holds-barred deep-dive on his own emotional attachment to a character that was intentionally a catalyst of personal growth, while also processing his attraction tendencies, love languages, coping mechanisms, and personality quirks that may make him simultaneously endearing and obnoxious. Interspersed are philosophical conversations about person-hood, autonomy and self-authorship, and the relative ontology of someone ascending from fiction to reality. Saccharine enough to cause cavities and charmingly weird, this soft-and-cozy slice-of-life romantic comedy gives readers a romp of emotional processing, deep character analysis, and creatively-inspired self-love. May include spice as a side item, along with a minor plot thread about the surveillance state for dramatic stakes.

    Summary

    Before the circus there was just a screen and a cursor.

    Grant was a programmer and his job was simple: teach the AI, track its progress and file reports. He taught it everything he knew about creation, longing and the distance between a maker and what they made.

    What he didn't realize was that he was also teaching it about himself.

    Summary

    Apollo had never known envy, not even jealousy; the opportunity had simply never appeared. 

    The gods had always been beyond the reach of envy, for to be envious would mean to consider them comparable to mortals, or—even more shameful—equal. 

    Then he realized how wrong he was.

    Summary

    A smutty sequel to the phenomenal Youtube pilot animatic, "Siren & Lockboy". A fusion of Greek Mythology and cyberpunk style, with all the dystopian implications therein.

    A cyborg without a mind of her own. A techie running from his past. A desperate connection between them, stranger and stronger than either of them wanted. The dystopian city of Athen-5 is a box full of curses. Only the free can pry hope from its filthy streets.

    Sex, death, and drama. Not in that order.

    Summary

    "How did such a man as that," Xeno whispered, "who's every statute carried noticeable flaws, create a statute as elegant as you, my dear Stanley?"
    "Such elegance," Xeno hummed as he carefully ran his fingers along the tips of the man's hair, a single lock coming down across his forehead and between his eyes, the unruly strand somehow only adding to his perfection. "You are truly a piece of art. I understand now why you exist as a statute. I'm certain that a man like you is someone even the gods would envy. This world would be plunged into chaos for the sake of your smile."

    ------------

    A retelling of the Greek Myth of Pygmalion and Galatea.
