I first "met" Kfir Luzzatto through The Harrow Press, where I saw the call for submissions for Mortis Operandi which called for tales from my favourite theme, paranormal, mixed with investigators. I love a paranormal tale (in fact, I just finished Enchanting Lily today, by Anjalee Banerjee which...

This morning I had brunch with friends - including a wonderful lady who I don't get to see very often since she lives in Toronto now - and then came home for some editing time. Visiting friends is by far more fun than re-reading your own work and realizing that you have an addiction to commas,...

The game itself was funded (to say it was a success would be a mild understatement), and that cuts off the source for...

"The Prescient," by Mark Wildyr
Erotica Exotica blends many of my favourite things together into one melting pot - the supernatural or paranormal, gay fellas, interesting world building (often contemporary), and - sometimes - happy endings.
I really enjoyed the world building in this story,...

The Machine of Death: The Game of Creative Assassination is rolling down to the space of hours, now. About a day is left, and to say it was a success would be a mild understatement. I've been trying to pay attention to what exactly I've earned in the various reward levels, and I'm pretty sure at...
