Like Asimov, I have tried to make my stories revolve around people— not just around spaceships and lasers. I started just writing a few paragraphs at a time, but paragraphs that showed something. Like Haikus, except without the strict format. Eventually, I started to write longer pieces and to interconnect the paragraphs and stories. Now, all of the pieces show or explain part of a larger universe. It is a universe that I have created; one that I have developed over time and am continuing to develop. Many of the pieces have become running stories, however, I have intentionally split these up, inserting smaller pieces inbetween. I have done this in order to allow the reader to grasp a fuller view of the universe, not to merely focus on a group of characters and their actions. Also, the smaller stories give the reader a break— a chance to give a story a rest for a minute and focus their attention elsewhere before returning to a specific story line. It is for these reasons that I recommend that you read the stories in the order that I have placed them. The group of stories I am calling the Heale V Stories (the reason of which will be quickly made clear upon reading). I would love any feedback you may have. If you have feedback, feel free to contact me. I hope you enjoy my stories!
