The Wormfood Chronicles are individual tales meant to entertain, enthral, enlighten and occasionally disturb. Feel free to read in order or skip and come back to a story as your heart and your reading tastes dictate. The timeline of the stories moves through decades and even centuries with new roles for the characters. The ensemble cast appears again on different stages and in front of different sets. Can a single character named Augustus appear as a demon-ravaged cast-off in the sea in 1647, as a night terror filled lad in 1962 and as a wary traveller near the end of days in 2076? Certainly. No time travel required. But possibly return engagements for a single soul.
Unique characters, from ghostly dogs to heroic lovers facing near certain death together will tug at your heart strings. Possession may be a spirit needing one last settling of the score or the dislocation may be entirely within the head of the character certain that he can see the world collapsing around him.
Life and death being givens, the stories do very occasionally delve into the macabre world of worms and decomposition of the person. We are, after all, food for them each in our time.
Enjoy the tales!
