Here's some of my short fiction. Farewell to Paradise is interesting because if you imagine the main character to be the oracle during the first version (or possibly second) of the matrix, it kind of makes sense. Of course, I wrote it in 2001, and I wonder if maybe the WBs read it. Ahh the strange fantasies I have some times.
You know, it also strikes me how in McHell my character looks at the time a lot. Kind of like how in the matrix you see clocks and it refers to something hidden or subtle. Anyways, please be kind to McHell, it was one of my first short stories I wrote after graduating high school.
Well, without further delay....

Whoa........I LOVE IT!!!
NICE STUFF...
I really enjoyed the last two...very thought provoking...and you've got a twisted sense of humor like I do...LMAO at Enter the Phallus...tnat was great! And Farewell to Paradise is extremely interesting to me...I'm really impressed with that different take. I've said it before, and I'll say it again...Terikan, you're the man!
Damn Terikan!
Those were really good, especially Farewell to Paradise. All very well written, and with a meaning, rather than just an entertaining, but shallow narative. Very well done. Do you have any more?
Thank you also. I have the first four chapters of a novel, but I haven't worked on it in over a year, maybe closer to 2 years. It's cyber-punk. It's based on the world called shadowrun. The pen and paper game.
You know what's kind of sad is that the WBs had to have come up with their idea for the matrix at least partially from this game. It's been around since the 70's and you can get a cyber implant on your neck so you can jack into the matrix, a global computer network. Yes, it's actually called the matrix in the game, and it's really called jacking in.
Oh well. I may never finish that work, but here are the links to the first four chapters. I have to say, after I wrote chapter 4, it was hard to continue because I had lost my motivation, and because of how well I thought I had done on that chapter, I didn't know if I could keep it up.
The name of it is 'Dragon Rising'.

I have written a lot more things, but a lot of it was lost, and plenty of it is not really worthy of putting up anywhere.
