Welcome to Green Comet

There have been over 50,000 downloads of the stories in the Green Comet trilogy. If you’ve read any or all of them, then please drop a note in the comments below. I love to hear from readers, whether it’s a question or a compliment or a criticism, constructive or otherwise. Whatever you want to say, I want to hear it.

Are you interested in lucid dreaming or ball lightning? How about the feet of geckos or spiders? The aquatic ape? Cave art? Maybe you like clouds. You might have a fascination with out-of-body or near-death experiences, collective nouns or synesthesia. You can find all that and more here. Just use the handy little search bar.

There’s a lot of interesting stuff here, but mostly this website exists as a place for the Green Comet trilogy and my other novels to live. Please sign the guest book.

These free novels, Creative Commons licensed Green Comet, and its sequels Parasite Puppeteers and The Francesians, tell an expansive story of love and adventure on an inhabited comet.

This Year’s Book – Not My World

Hello loyal readers and curious explorers.

I’m well into this year’s book, working title “Not My World,” and it’s quite a departure from the Vin Stone series. Vin Stone is contemporary urban fiction and Not My World is an exploration of the Multiverse.

I thought I’d share the first chapter here as a PDF. The novelty is stimulating me and it makes me want to share. So, here you go. Not My World – Chapter One – Jackknife.
