Stories worth reading (at least I think so)

Stories that start from an idea and blossom into reality, in words and images.

I write stories that intrigue me, and hopefully you too. I use AI to help me build these worlds and put the words on the page. While that may seem controversial to some, it's how I'm able to share them with the world.

Hi, I'm Josh.

I write fantasy and science fiction stories because I love making them. This site is the doorway to everything I create for anyone willing to step through. Every idea, every draft, every edit (the hundreds of hours it takes to turn a premise into a finished story) is mine. I don't have a publisher or a producer. I just enjoy the process.

Off the page, I'm a husband, a dad, and lucky enough to love my full-time job. I'm also one of the voices behind The Long Game, a podcast network for middle-aged fathers figuring out the second half of life.

The Last Human, for instance, is a premise I wrote twenty years ago and carried around ever since. This site exists because I finally found a way to finish it.

A note on process: I use AI as one tool among many, alongside years of notes, drafts, and rewrites, to help get these stories from my head onto the page. The ideas, the choices, and the work are mine; AI just helps me finish what I start.
