12 episodes

This first collection of Steve's Short Stories brings a mixture of the darker side of Science and what man is probably capable of achieving, whilst also bringing some humour. These short stories have allowed Steve the luxury to make a study of a particular topic that has reared its head in the world of science or technology and is currently being discussed. Steve through use of his imagination and word processor, has explored where such developments could take human kind. There is even a story that could be a ghost story, or is it about a ghost? To round things off Steve even glimses into the domain of romance. Something for everyone? Maybe, we'll leave it for you to decide.

In addition to the stories, Steve also brings you, courtesy of the talented artists concerned, some great music tracks that act as the theme music for each story. Each track has been carefully chosen to match the subject matter and tone of the story concerned.

    10. To See or Not to See ( 11 Mins )

    This is kind of a ghost story, but is it really a ghost that is experienced or is it something else?  Dare I say that this story is based on personal experience, or will you lot have me carted off and locked up?  I hasten to add that significant elements of it are made up.  That's a writers job after all.

    Music: "Spooky Piano" By: Jeff Rosiana

    Feedback So Far:

        * "This story very much reminds me of an experience that I had when I lived in France on an old farm, when I regularly saw an ederly lady seated outside an adjoining building.  She never acknowledged me or responded to my greetings.  I had a strange feeling when I saw her, yet never felt threatened by her.  The buiulding concerned had been vacant for  many years apparently and according to locals was the house of the grandmother.  Thanks for a super story."
