Welcome one and all to the new resting place for my stories, both dead and living. I haven't been around for a while, but I thought that since I'll be making a slow return, the first step should be to collect all my stories and get to work on starting new ones. Most of these were written quite a while ago. Just a couple of warnings before you read (if you do), all of them are on the old forums for them moment. You'll be logged out if you visit them. Secondly, many of these stories were written before I had much of a grasp of linguistics. The newer stories are far superior to the older ones. That being said, all of them are riddled with errors that were never corrected. If I end up posting them here again they will be thoroughly edited.On with the show!
