Fiction
- I've been writing it since high school. Never had any plans to publish
anything, these are just stories that came to me so I wrote them down. I like
pushing words around about as much as I like pushing code around. Most of this
stuff is very old, written either in college or just post college during the
grad school days, but some of it is recent.
