A Plonqmas Tail.What would Christmas be without Santa Claws? A certain snow leopard finds out.
Another Plonqmas Tail.Can things be worse the next year? Apparently so...
Yet another Plonqmas Tail.Christmas time for the hapless snow leopard again.
Codzilla - don't ask.My entry for the 1999 MFM con book. Committees, oy!
ParchedYou've heard of soup nazis, but a lanudry nazi..?
The Life Of The PartyMy attempt at doing a furry/cyberpunk fusion. The moral of this story: buyer beware.
Fox With A Box...and the story's sequel. A little darker than the original, but this is closer to what I was trying to get with the first one.
The Guardian.I though that this story was lost for good when my hard drive blew up, but I found a good copy of it in Google groups. Go me for not using x-noarchive.
Y2K1K was so much easier -- just sacrafice a couple of virgins, say a few prayers to got gods, and don't even bother modifying any of your scrolls, or stone tablets. None of those boring meetings for a poor snow leopard...
Flight of FancyThis is just a little flight of fancy I wrote as some course material for a writing class I am due to take.
Plonq's PromotionPlonq gets a "promotion" at work. Of course, sometimes things don't always appear as advertised...
Small PackagesAnother of my more serious works. It seems that Plonq is about as adept at picking up social cues as he is at programming JCL.
DinnerThe sequel to Small Packages. Seems that Plonq has bitten off a bit more than he can chew.
Wheels Within WheelsOtters can be such shameless schemers when they put their little minds to it, eh?
Love StinksThe little snow leopard discovers that love stinks -- literally!
All In A Day's WorkWork and romance never mix, or do they? A sequel to "Love Stinks"
Days Like TheseAnother "Plonq at work" story. This one takes place after "Packages", but is not a sequel to the work. Much lighter in tone, too.
Soapbox Cat #1Plonq - for that is indeed whom is addressing the furry fandom in this story - finds out that public speaking isn't as easy as it looks on television. This story, as with the next, was just a bit of non-sequitor I posted to a.f.f to try and lighten things up a bit during one of the flame wars. I called the main lead "Snowcat" in this story and the next because at the time, I hadn't decided to separate out Plonq and Snowcat as separate entities. Just think of them as biped and quadruped versions of the same character.
Soapbox Cat #2Another disasterous public speaking appearance by poor Plonq - again appearing under the name "Snowcat".
Snowcat's FanficSnowcat (the real one this time) discovers that most word processors were never designed to be "quadruped friendly".
A Snow Leopard In The Pride Lands #1Ever an anomaly is the question of just how a snow leopard ever came to be lurking in the African savannah. While this little story doesn't give all the answers, it drops a few good hints.
The Windy DayUnless you're a regular in some of the Lion King mailing lists or IRC channels, the names in this story won't mean much to you. This is just a little glimpse into the personality of this little snow leopard.
Military PlonqLet a.f.f become a corny-sweet kind of newsgroup? Not while this cat draws breath!
The Furvey From HellJust where do they generate all their Furrymuck statistics from? The answer is not pretty. Be afraid, my friend, very afraid.
The Burger IncidentOne of those times when inspiration was drawn from RL. I wrote this one right after arriving home from a burger place with a suspiciously similar name to the one in the story.
Furry Public ReadingPlonq discovers that the danger of doing a public reading is that it's so closely tied with public humiliation.
The DentistAnother RL inspired story. Turns out that Plonq is as big a wimp at the dentist's office as his writer is.
Evening FallsThis is a short story I posted to the TLK mailing list one evening. As far as I know, this is the only place where it's archived. I decided to repost it here for posterity, because I've always liked this little story for some reason.
The Paws of NightThis is a small attempt at furry poetry - or more precisely, anthropomorphism. I've met mixed reviews with this one.
A warningIf you think that springtime is just about life and renewal, think again...
The OutcastAnother furry poem. This one, as with the next three, are TLK related.
IndecisionThis poem is both an experiment in style, and a descent into darkness.
Furry NightAs is the case with most of my poems, this was as much an experiment in style as anything else. Oddly enough, this poem generated more positive feedback for me than any other poem I've ever written.
NalaWell, then again, this one may be tied with the previous one for most positive feedback. This one was good enough to get my web page listed on one of those "I can't believe somebody put this on a web page" archives.
Pride RockOne of the scenes that got cut from The Lion King - in part, to keep its G rating.
A Bad DayHow do most people deal with a bad day at work? Stop for a drink on the way home? Turn into a lion and ravage half the office? Warning: this one contains some reasonably violent scenes.
The ExterminatorHe kills things. This is arguably my darkest piece of writing to date. For some reason most people hate this guy before they get halfway through the story...
The TwinkieBelieve it or not, this is based on a RL incident. I've taken some liberty with the facts. As I recall now, it was actually a Rice Crispy square, rather than a Twinkie - and it happened at work, not at home.
The Twinkie 2So what happens when a writer runs out of ideas? Same thing that happens when movie makers run out of ideas .. he writes a sequel.
Furburner 2And yet another Plonq story. My very first post to alt.fan.furry.bleachers... :-)
The MeetingWhat exactly does Plonq do for a living? Apparently not much.
Plonq PoetryEvery cat deserves a day when something doesn't go wrong. Of course, when you're just sitting at home writing poetry, what can go wrong? This is basically "The Paws Of Night" with a story wrapped around it.
Learning To FlyThis is one of my rare ventures into a more dramatic style of writing. I'm fairly pleased with the results, if the story is perhaps a bit on the melodramatic side.
BeerOne of the best parts about going for a beer is the strange characters you meet - mind you, there's always the danger of meeting Plonq.
Holy WafersThis story, and the next three are D&D satire, following the antics of Dingbat the monk and his three companions of misfortune. They were all co-written with Michael McAleese, a very talented (and funny) writer. Delivering holy wafers for a sacred ceremony is easy work when you can get it, right?
BanditsDingbat versus the bandits. When you find a town being oppressed by a horde of evil bandits you turn tail and run - if you're smart.
Monk is MonkVanquishing an evil overlord always sounded so easy in the old epics...
A King's RansomEasy come, easy go. It's no wonder the party is always broke.
Search For Scotch (I)A lot can happen while you're shopping for scotch -- part I of II DANGER: part I of this story contains scenes of violence and harsh language.
Search For Scotch (II)A lot can happen while you're shopping for scotch -- part II of II
