Short-Lived is a dark novella set amidst the grittier areas of Phoenix, Arizona. Nine stories tell tales of money, power, life, and death. Short-Lived intricately weaves the lives of a drug addict, his love interest, dealers, and those struggling for power in the streets. Who will come out on top, and who will get left in the dust?

To be born Gaian is to be born gifted. That wasn’t always true, but as more infants were born with special talents of the mind, what was once considered abnormal became the majority. The ungifted were sent to Thalassa, an island chain off the coast of the mainland. These orphans grew up in a vassal kingdom forced to pay dues to its overseers.

It’s the year of our Lord 1066, and Edward the Confessor is dead. Long live the king. Upon his death, there are multiple claimants to the English throne. It's said that he whispered a successor in his final moments, but can the wishes of the deceased hold up against men vying for power?

After a decisive victory, Thalassan forces occupy the Gaian city of Tartarus. Prince Daemyn of Thalassa’s murder may have been avenged, but the kingdom’s determination for sovereignty will not be abated. Gaia’s High Council won’t stand for their insult much longer. Despite their triumph, Thalassa cannot afford to go head to head against Gaia’s Empire time and again. Troops will march and people will die, but mind-reading Gaians have more insidious plans to bring their rebellious vassal kingdom in line once more.
