Alternate Realities

There is more than one way to see the truth...

Hi All:

Our latest anthology from Double Dragon, Twisted Tales II, Volumes 1 & 2 have been released. The stories all hinge upon twists in time – time travel, time paradox, or alternate timelines. I'd really like you to check it out – I have a story in volume 2. You can find it at --

Volume one has been out for over a month and now volume two has followed it. I was pleased to be invited to contribute to this joint effort by the other Double Dragon authors, especially as I was the newbie and my novels had not yet reached release date.

The other volumes can also be found on the site nearby, and there is a review for volume one at -

My own story, "Ticket", might present a form of alternate timeline – or it might use the time paradox instead. (These stories all have twisted endings.) The protagonist is a ‘fixer' who is concerned to control the actions of a distraught husband. Her name is Angela, which I mean to suggest ‘angel', but she doesn't exist as part of any religious ethos common to mainstream North American belief. Ticket is one of my explorations into a possible supernatural based on the conjunction of Tibetan Buddhism and String Theory. If you're interested, read Ticket and look for my other stories that are in the works. One has a Buddhist monk who travels in space through the ‘mind' dimension; and the novel – that I have to resurrect again for a new draft – has a mischievous young woman who could be a demon or a dakini.

My alternate world/soft SF adventures "Deadly Enterprise" and "The Wildcat's Victory" are due out from Double Dragon, the first in June and second soon after. These novels bring together a small group of modern people and an alternate Earth with a culture similar to our 17th - 18th centuries.

Alternate realities – I live in them.
