Dotting the 'I's and crossing the 'T's in a dystopian future.
Laura has problems: it's hot, she hates her co-worker, and her job sucks more often than not. But what the hell, it's a job.
The Broken Needles
on June 08, 2013
Good writing combined with an original premise; although the witches' dialogue was a bit juvenile at times. Overall however a good read. The Broken Needles witches are interesting characters. At the end I found myself wanting to read more about them. Hopefully DeNight will write more Broken Needles stories.
The Bacco Stick

Good story from the first sentence to the last.
Seedling: A Short Story
on Jan. 02, 2015
Well written, realistic flowing dialogue. The characters immediately feel real and at the end I wanted more. Seedling is pure storytelling.
Cosmic Tales 2: Zulgahoik!
on Jan. 21, 2015
Imagine if Tom Sharpe (Wilt, Blot on the Landscape, etc.) had been both, an LSD *and* a cocaine fiend, and you've got an idea of Richard Parr's sense of wordplay and story pacing. Zulgahoik! is a psychedelic, frantic, violent, and humorous trip.
Cosmic Tales 1: Resurrection
on Jan. 21, 2015
It cost millions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of words to produce a forgettable movie called, Guardians of the Galaxy. Richard Parr created a memorable story with memorable characters in under 4,200 words, and costing probably only a couple of pints. Nice work.
Finally
on March 24, 2015
Another very good, crisp, piece of writing, with an unexpected ending that I loved.
First Fruits
on March 26, 2015
"First Fruits" is a good story with an original premise. I liked it.
