The Twilight Bone

You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. Your next stop, The Twilight Bone!

The goal of The Twilight Bone is to provide some fun, quick, and "single-sitting" stories. If you like any of these shorter stories and are looking for something a little longer, feel free to check out one of my other stories!

I also wanted to do something a little fun and exciting. For this story, you the readers will vote on what the next chapter will be that I add! Every time I post a new chapter, I will post a form where you can vote on which chapter you would like to see next. Every cycle, the story options in the form will be changed. I'll try my best to keep to a fairly regular schedule of posting one new chapter a week, but life can be crazy. You will have three days to vote after the chapter is posted and then I will close the poll, so I have time to write the new chapter. I have no idea how long I will be doing this, but I wanted to do something special to thank everyone who has supported and enjoyed my other works.
