Curtis Ray Jones
I'm a 73-year-old retired factory husband, father of two, grandfather of one. I am an amateur Sci-Fi Fantasy writer and write little poetry too, none of it published, I don't count Publish America, which 'published' my current project, Banished To Earth, in 2004. My only formal education is a creative writing class I had way back in 1970, so I'm kind of out of my depth on this site, but I'm trying to keep up. Love sharing my stuff. Thanks for the opportunity to do so. Ray

An oppressive pretence holds these people, I think they know but are so paralyzed by the dull comfort of routine they dare not press against it, well that's my take anyway, another well-written piece Ray

Sinister routine

something there ominous terrible and patient, waiting for this creepy, odd, too ordinary world to finally collapse
The tone gently claws, well written

The Shadow King what a perfect title, your prose is so detailed but not at all tedious, easy to read even easier to enjoy.
Billie and his entire family face grave danger, great work
