Some stories are here already and more will be added in due course. The plan is to post at least twelve new stories in 2003, a mix of horror, fantasy and science fiction. Oh, and one or two mainstream (or almost mainstream) items.

horror, fantasy, science fiction, mainstream

New Stories by Hugh Cook

new in 2003

"New stories" updated: 2003 March 13 Thursday (Japan time) at which point The Ghosting of Heineman Jubiladilia was added.

The Ghosting of Heineman Jubiladilia. That body is Heineman's. And if he can't get back into it, then he's dead.

An Alien in Japan. This short story is a science fiction story, an SF story about aliens a piece of fiction set in Japan.

The Warden of Jestabel Zee - a fantasy story. In the face of a threat of violence ....

Gap Music  Well, of course, everyone has to remember their previous lives. That's an acknowledged part of growing up. But for some people the process kicks in later than others. And the results can be a bit ... well ... you be the judge ....

Live on Channel 10  Everyone wants to be on TV, right? Horror story.

The Transfer of Patient Twenty-Seven  Mainstream story. This kind of thing really happens.

Acorns  Mainstream story set in the U.S.A. Partly about acorns, but mostly not.

UFO Invasion - the Truth about Alien Abductions!!  Each year, millions of Americans are abducted by aliens. But why? This lightly fictionalized account of a TRUE STORY supplies the answer.

A Pilgrimage to Plaka Kalada  Ida Brahma is on a mission to the planet Plaka Kalada. She has two problems. One is that if her disguise is penetrated then she may end up dead. The other problem is Doctor Defrock.

The Secret History of Lord Dreldragon  The day before his arrest, Asquith North gets an anonymous letter. It is short and to the point. "What you call truth others call treason. Run if you value your life. You are only twenty-four years of age." But Asquith does not run.

Life and Death in Oolong Morblock  Three months after committing the perfect murder, Mafling Yonrungon dies of a heart attack. However, although dead, he's not yet ready to call it quits.

Quilting  Some people aren't asked if they'd like to become the enemy. They're just born into a particular community, and that seals their fate. Even so, quilting would seem to be a harmless enough hobby. But it's surprising what can be turned into a lethal weapon, if you're imaginative enough.

The Suicide Bomber  He doesn't think of himself as a suicide bomber. Or even as a terrorist. He genuinely believes that terrorism is not the answer. But, day by day, he has less and less to lose, and more and more reason to take action.

Patriots  Even if you're a genuine patriot, and Jason is, that doesn't set you free from the need to play the game. And a pretty rough game it can be, too.

Bad Sex  Terrence Azlenabek is one of the most difficult people to deal with. He believes in telling the truth, regardless of the consequences. And the truth regarding this guy John Milton? Well, the tabloid press is making a meal of it.
