By day I'm a video game consultant, and I also volunteer at the German Shepherd Dog Welfare Fund - the charity that rescued the dog I adopted last year. I've also recently started compiling a website covering the history of the village I live, although I'm hoping to draw in some help for that project! Here is scratchpad when I need it, and a place for my personal projects. It's also an archive from back when this was was my writing blog.

In this newsletter we have a new drabble (100 word story) by Darren Grey:
Death to Slavers by Darren Grey
Mama used to take me to market. People there were nice! But some gave mean looks. “Death to Slavers,” they whispered.
Once a scary man came with us. “Don’t worry,” said Mama. “We paid good money for him. Daddy’s a Patron now; we need protection.”
But when the bangs started he just fell down, and people pulled Mama away. “Death to Slavers!” they shouted.
They say Mama’s gone now. I hope she comes back. I try being good, but if I don’t work hard they hit me.
“Death to Slavers,” they still say. I don’t even know who Slavers is.
