Hyena Falls

The stories collected in this book all take place in the same area, but at different times. Some of the characters know each other, most don't, and there are even some who don't know that they know each other - it's like life that way. Chronologically, the stories range from things I wrote ten years ago to things I just finished this week. Somehow, they all form a cohesive universe, and it's my universe, and it's a good one, even if it can be scary sometimes. That's what makes this bizarre work stick together, I suppose, and that's also what makes it relatable (which I hope it is) to others: despite the horror, despite the weirdness, and despite the philosophical interludes, the world is a good one, and we manage to keep going because we choose to live in a better world than we found when we got here. That's what Hyena Falls is - a world whose characters make it better for having been in it. And that's what this world is, too.
