I don't suppose there are any artist types who read and enjoy my stories and would like one? Or perhaps there are avid readers with artist friends who are in the market for a story? It's been suggested that I try some one off stories, and I've also been thinking some companion art for my stuff would be cool. If anyone wants to trade an image for a story, let me know. I'm thinking one for the Meeta stories, one for the HDTF stories, and maybe an avatar image would be cool. I can offer a 3000-5000 word story for each, I think.

I'm a long time lurker and who has recently begun contributing to the community. This grew mostly out of a feeling of guilt that I was consuming too much (no pun intended) without giving anything back. I had a few kernels of stories festering in my noggin and decided to set them free. I'm flattered that people have enjoyed them.

Right up front I'd like to apologize for the day that I inevitably vanish from the active community. I go through phases of enthusiastic interest in things like this and then suddenly forget about them for years at a time, and I'm reluctant to embrace the stranger aspects of my tastes, so there's a distinct chance I'll eventually decide I should go cold turkey.
