"An author is a fool who, not content with boring those he lives with,
insists on boring future generations."

If you are seeking great works of fiction that will expand your mind and change your life... Boy, did you come to the wrong WebSite!

Big Frost Cold One

This Place Is *NOT* For Children Or Those Easily Offended.
Most of my yarns contain adult language and/or content that kids wouldn't care about anyway. To the unenlightened, that does not mean pornography. What you will find here is creative writing for grown-ups.

If this is your first time here, please check out My Philosophy & Other Errors In Judgment first. It will answer various FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions), explain my abbreviations and prove that I've got a few loose screws. If you insist on blundering ahead and then become insulted after this warning, then you're the one with something wrong with your head. Either that or you are type of pinhead I want to torture.

For those of you crazy enough to want to send me a message, welcome to my obstacle course titled Catacombs of the Dead E-Mail. You may never send a communiqué via the Internet again.

If you've been here before... then why am I boring you?

Legal Crap: Everything on this WebSite (except those attributed to other sources) has been created by and is copyrighted (©) to me, Mark Corrington. Because some of my writings touch upon others' works (Star Trek©, The Game Monopoly©, music, etc.), I cannot sell or distribute those particular works in any way that will gain me financial profit. Hopefully, my writings will encourage you, the readers, to learn more about these other artists' works and, in turn, help them in the areas of public appreciation and increased royalties. And, if you don't own a Monopoly Game©, go out and buy one.

As for my writings, you may freely read and/or copy them under two provisos:
(1) That I am to be given full credit for my work. No plagiarism, please.
(2) That they are not to be placed in any venue or medium which will assist someone else in gaining a profit. If I'm not going to make any money from them, neither are you.

In the 'Turnabout Is Fair Play' department, what could I do if, one day, I became a character in someone else's writings? Probably not a whole hell of a lot, especially if I am 'resurrected' after I'm dead. If Star Trek© can breathe life into Mark Twain, maybe, someday, the same will happen to me. Just make sure you future scribblers are true to my character... whatever that might be.
