Hiya guys,
This is the link to my first ever published story. I'm very happy.

If anybody fancies a read - go ahead.

This story has now been archived, but it was great while it lasted. I loved the feeling that something I wrote was out there. If anybody read - thanks.

Congrats!

A little specificity, please. Do you mean this story: The Boatman?

Interesting interpretation of the Styx (or Acheron, depending). Hope to see many more stories from you.

Sorry. What a faux pas. Got so excited about publishing a story and forgot to mention the bloody title.

Thanks for saying that. I'm sure it's not true but thanks anyway. It makes me feel all grown up.
