I write fiction at Gibberish, which is primarily for sci-fi but includes weekly writing exercises unconstrained by genre. My current project is a tech-noir serial, DUEL, which just started so easy to get in on the ground floor! check out episode 1 of the serial here:
Cole Noble
A wandering storyteller, specializing in speculative fiction. I love applying what I’ve learned as an adventure writer to put together gripping narratives that test the bounds of our humanity.
I also host this show, and run this site!
