Welcome, New Readers!

Welcome to Odd & Ends! I’ve made this post in an effort to help new people get settled.

The series is a mix of episodic and serialized story telling, by which I mean there is an overarching plot with character arcs and an end goal in mind, but I also have a nasty habit of writing tangential stories about side characters.

Frankly the best place to get started is the first arc, Opening Day,  because it sets up the tone, the setting, and the characters pretty well. Alternatively you can check the Synopsis, which will spoil everything up to the last time it was updated. If you don’t like playing by anybody’s rules, here are just a few of my favorite stories!

“Have a Safe Walk”

A horror story in which a young man makes some unsettling new friends on the way home from work.

Cold in a Colder World

Good King Dundermoat (Two chapters)

Comings and Goings (Two chapters)

Dug Pifton has always wanted to be a druid. Now that he is, he’s beginning to think it may not be all he wanted it to be. But when the birds of Skymoore reveal a deadly plot to wipe out humanity, he discovers that maybe what he actually needs is a new perspective.
