"You, you are the youngest of those that come here and I can see it on your face. Why are you so sad? What is it that causes you misery."
"You say that you hate doing something. Well ask youself what does it bring you. Chances? Oppertunity? Is it worth you misery. Sometimes we have to cut out those things from our lives to be happy. Others we have to keep with because to do otherwise is to forsake what we have. It is to turn our back on anything just because it gets tough. It is to lose hope in the world."
"Life is to short to not be happy son. Life could end tomorrow and if it did would you be happy with yours. If you do not want to play the piano just tell you folks that. Find your love of the instrimunt once more and just play for fun but don't keep doing something that you hate so much."
"You do not have to over come your hate of it just so that other people can be happy. Let me tell you a tale of something that I hated when I was your age."
I have never liked the quiet times much. They just move to slow for my taste. How can you have fun if you never try and just move.
Well my sister once asked me if I would go out and do nothing with her. To just go somewhere nice and sit around all day doing nothing. Happy as can be and twice as content.
It was hard for the first couple of hours I will freely admit. To just sit and be content, to not feel the urge to get up and run as far and as fast as I was able.

It took hours for me to get in a state where I was happy and the whole time I was hateing ever second of it. Why can't I just go for a walk or something. But eventually we got to talking and watching the clouds. How they moved across the sky and everything just being lazy and drifting on the breaze.
Well I hated what i was doing at first but now days it is fun and a nice way of spending the evning. It was worth keeping at it.
Is the piano worth it for you?

The Man Who Walked in the Dark
Just because it can be found, doesn't mean it should. All things found, all things fixed. Jude Demarco was the best private detective Nicodemia Station had ever ignored. Detective, handyman, medic. He was a bulldog who tracked down every lead and wouldn't let go until the bloody truth died dripping in his jaws. Even if someone got hurt. Even if someone got killed. You lost it? He can find it. When a collector arrives in a private cruiser from Earth looking for a stolen painting, Demarco has to decide if a few dimes are worth dealing with the worst of the worst in Nicodemia Station.

After the Long Burn
After the longest exodus in human history, a terrible accident threatens to turn the salvation of humanity into its most desperate struggle for survival. From the ashes of calamity rises a new human story. A frustrated scientist dedicates her life to recreating the Earth in alien soil, while another is gunned down for his sin and sets off a chain of events culminating in a desperate escape across the void for an opportunity at redemption. Around a distant moon a deep space miner stumbles onto a secret, the key to which lies buried inside his own tortured mind. After the Long Burn is an anthology of short science fiction stories set in the distant Ionad System. Author's Note: I thought I might try something a little different with this story. Rather than one story, it is six stories of varying length, each taking a slightly different perspective to tell a larger story. Some are more actioney, others more cerebral but I hope there will be something for everyone. Stories over 7000 words, with the exception of the titular After the Long Burn, will be published in two parts. I anticipate an upload schedule of one part every other day.
