Tastes of the Cosmos Release Post and Author’s Note

This is a story which has been told before.  My twist on it, if there is a twist to be found, is to present it (mostly) from an alien perspective.

202510.14202509.03 lloydearickson Projects, Short Stories

Terror of Age Release Post and Author’s Note

There's some regicide, a stolen magic sword, and some flashy sympathy magic, but mostly this is a story about an immortal witch and the way she traps herself in her own mind with the terrors and regrets of centuries of living in the world.

Against the Warlock Release Post and Author’s Note

The best wielders of this kind of magic are those who can compellingly spin words into a believable tale, and the more skilled, the wilder a tale you can suggest successfully.

Memories Like Roses Author’s Note and Release

Memories Like Roses is an initial attempt to capture some of those thoughts in story form, to explore the inherent conflict that seems present in translation through the medium of storytelling.  Somehow, I doubt it will be my last word on the subject.

New Story: The Legend of Meladerth’s Valley

Despite my best efforts, though, I still think about other story ideas, and sometimes they beg to be written.

202404.16202401.13 lloydearickson Projects, Short Stories

Until Death Do Us Part Release and Author’s Note

I sat down and wrote, for the "Monsters and Madness" prompt, a...romance?

202404.02202312.05 lloydearickson Projects, Series, Short Stories

Ancient Origins

This is not a formal announcement of a new series, and I‘m certainly not putting dates onto anything.

202311.07202307.01 lloydearickson Projects, Short Stories

Finding Eden Release and Author’s Note

Even the not-quite utopia Finding Eden features is too perfect to convey adequately and convincingly, especially not in two thousand words, and the attempt would only distract from the story I’m trying to tell.

202310.03202306.03 lloydearickson Projects, Short Stories

A Meal to Live For Release and Author’s Note

Sometimes, though, a light story is a good thing, and coming in as always for these stories under two thousand words, A Meal to Live For is light in every sense of the word.

A Rejection is Published!

It is published in Sci Phi Journal, which publishes some very interesting and thought provoking pieces.
