I spend much of my day writing. Or at least I try to.

Most of my writing is on long-form projects than often take months to create. Because of this, I sometimes write a short (most times comedic, other times not so much) to break up the monotony. But while these shorts are fun to write as an exercise, nobody ever really gets to read them.

To remedy this, I’ve decided to share them here. I’m doing this for two reasons:

1. I like to share! And it’s better than having them sit on my laptop.

2. It’s my hope that someone will be inspired to actually do something creative with them. Want to film one as a short? Awesome. Interested in animating one? Go for it. Feel like performing one live onstage? I dare you. All I ask is that you give me credit and send me a copy of the final product.

The fiftieth of Shady’s Shorts is called Arthur.

A true story too depressing for a witty caption.

I spend much of my day writing. Or at least trying to write when I’m not chasing kids around and changing diapers.

Lately, most of my writing has been on long-form projects. Because of this, I sometimes write a short (most times comedic, other times not so much) to break up the monotony of those longer projects. But while these shorts are fun to write as an exercise, nobody ever really gets to read them.

The forty-eighth of Shady’s Shorts is called The Pink Note.

Unlike almost all of my previous shorts, this one is not a comedy. It’s a dramatic short that is based on something that, unfortunately, actually happened in Bellefontaine, Ohio back in 2015. This short is similar in approach and tone to This Is Where I Get Off, which I wrote a few years ago.

…(pun intended) while researching characters for this Shady’s Short.

Yes, accuracy is important, even when dealing with the Masters of the Universe.

Anyway, while doing so, I stumbled across this obscure character:

Definitely never had that action figure.

His name is Plundor the Spoiler, ruler of Trannis. Whatever the hell that means.

I’m not sure if it’s Plundor’s knee-high boots or his tighty-maroonies with a hole cut out of the butt for his fluffy tail to poke through, but he is easily the most fabulous man-rabbit—Or is it man-bunny?—I’ve ever come across.

And I thought Fisto was over the top,
