writing fiction is how I make sense of the world — and occasionally escape it — building characters, places, and moments that feel just real enough to matter. these short stories are equal parts imagination, curiosity, and late-night “what if?” spirals, created purely from my love of storytelling, creativity, and the endless freedom of world-building. i just can’t get enough of creativity. i write not to showcase how amazingly brilliant i am, (hint hint) but to flex my creative muscles and keep my thoughts and ideas flowing.
Monologue of a Friend
Hi,
This is your best friend.
Your best friend since day one, since moment one.
I was right there when you entered the world, screaming and crying.
An Unlucky Remembrance
Many people think they have terrible luck.
Maybe you get pinkeye. Pink eye, you think to yourself, who the hell
gets pink eye past elementary school. Of course it’s me. And sure,
all credit to you, that's unlucky. But that is
nothing – and I mean nothing compared to Mike Platz.
