For Love of Fire
A homeless schizophrenic man wandering the streets of Brooklyn can’t help himself from talking out loud. And some can’t help but listen. When two friends decide to bring the troubled man’s delusion to life, their lives are turned upside down as his reality becomes their reality. Stranded within his world, they are left to wonder… is he even crazy?

Love Pop
When Eliot’s wife popped from the inside out, he was left speechless. When everyone else started to pop, he had a feeling it had something to do with him.
It could’ve happened to anyone. Eliot and his wife Peggy were like any other couple in love. Another pair in the crowd living simple, happy lives. Arm in arm as life carried on into the sunsets of tomorrow. Now it was a mess of red. Of blood, guts, and bones. The love is still very much alive. It’s just buried under a strange, developing pile of carnage.
Surrounded by lunatics, Eliot is dragged through a mystery of blood and madness. With no explanation in sight, he is forced into an adventure he wants nothing to do with. The authorities are scratching their heads. The news is trembling as the blood level rises. And a new religion is dressing in red. But all Eliot wants to do is lay down and sleep. His dreams are where the real mystery lies.

Empty Bottles
Caesar’s life had come undone. A subject he avoids at all cost. That was years ago. The tragedy that had done him in. Years and too many drinks to count. Miserably content atop his growing pile of empty bottles, Caesar contemplates death and friendship. Mostly he just drinks and smokes cigarettes.
That was until Cupid walked into his bar.
Overcome with the prospect of revenge for his broken heart, Caesar stumbled up to Cupid with his fist swinging. When he comes to the morning after with something notably significant of Cupid’s in his possession, his world spirals into an adventure unlike any he could ever dream. Despite the growing danger which looms over his every move, Caesar remains committed to his new motivation in life. No more shall suffer the sting of love lost.
Caesar is going to kill Cupid.
