I'm also going to include some junk that does fit into my storylines but is somewhat older and either kind of outdated or in an unfinished/undesirable state for placing it with my "regular" writing. So browse around a bit if you want to see a few miscellaneous things related to my stories.
NOTE: When I originally posted this content online some years ago, I included detailed author's notes and running commentary--often flippant, to suit the frequently cringey writing. I'm no longer in the proper frame of mind to do this, plus I feel it detracted from the text. While I'll save a copy of the original notes for myself, I'm replacing them here with new, more serious notes and commentary, though I'll try to keep the latter to a minimum.
