Captain Disaster began life way back in 1999, or at least I think that's when it was - as a short story published in the independent press magazine "Visions". I believe it had a circulation of about 150. Anyway, the first episode proved fairly popular so I wrote some more - if I recall correctly, I wrote episodes 2-5 that were published sometime in 2000 in the same magazine.
An ebook collection of the original (or slightly edited, I don't remember now!) 11 episode has been available on Amazon since 2016. Later I started doing a new edit and releasing them along with an audiobook version which I released on Itch - the plan had been to all 11 episodes again, but eventually I did 5 and lowered the price accordingly, devoting the time to other projects as I was just struggling to get everything done.
Since then two more short stories (but longer-form, with a proper coherent plot instead of what basically amounted to "parody of the week" in the episodic format) have been released on both Amazon and Itch, with a third sitting stubbornly refusing to be finished (I will get to it, after Riskara has been released).
Anyway, I thought it might be nice to actually give at least some of the stories a home right here on this site as well. I'll put the links on this page as I post them over time.
