D Is For Damien Fiction



Around 1989, I came up with a spark of an idea for a story beginning with a group of children (anthropomorphic puppies, I now admit) huddling in the grass, making a prayer as a shooting star descended overhead. This story, entitled Lucifer, was originally intended to be about the character with the same name...but as time went on, my attention turned increasingly toward Lucifer's younger brother, Damien. Eventually the entire series came to focus on him instead, and was named after the second in the series, D Is For Damien.

As of the last count, the D4D series, as I call it, came to encompass almost thirty novels, including those in the "spinoff" series set in Minot, North Dakota. However, as of 2009, only three of the many novels (more of which I'm sure I'll think up as time goes by--the Minot subseries has taken on a life of its own in my head) have actually been written. I've been focusing more heavily on my other stories, but this series is still very close to me, and even though I'm not actively writing on it, I'm always thinking of it.

Were the later books of this series, particularly the Minot subseries, to be written already, one would see the development of some of my ideas regarding Jungian symbolism and themes such as those which have emerged in the Manitou Island series. Also in common with that other story is how close I feel to lead character Damien, much similar to how I now feel about MI's protagonist, Charmian. To this day these two are a couple of my most developed characters. (And also like Charmian, Damien starts out with no last name...though he's acquired one which has yet to be revealed in the stories.)

Given how long ago the completed novels were written, especially Lucifer and D Is For Damien (during the early to mid-Nineties), my writing style and themes have greatly changed. As a result, these novels read rather poorly compared to my newer work. I leave them posted as they're such a big part of my writing; also, I plan to rewrite them someday, as you can see by the handful of early chapters of Lucifer which have been redone already. I hope that I can someday do the series the justice I feel it deserves. (Considering that, back when I first posted Lucifer online around 2000, it was royally lambasted, and I myself personally insulted and torn to shreds, by a "well-meaning critic" who saw fit to call me and my story names and to call my sanity into question just for writing it. I kid you not.)

Along with the three completed novels, various other novels in the series have been left in various states of (in)completion; these are available among my childhood writing for you to view. I'd like very much someday to finish those as well.

(Untitled Kristeva Story)
(Also listed on the "Three D's" short stories page under "R Rated & Up," but since it relates to the novel series I'm also linking it here.) Actually, an amalgamation of parts of the various unwritten novels in the Minot spinoff storyline. This is a departure from most stuff here in that it's currently in progress and not proofread; my most recent work (starting May 2016). This is NOT an erotic work but does feature some adult content.
