Summary: What's the history of the other side of a proverbial pond, where violence reigns?
This is a collection of Weekly Free Writes and stories which take place in the Mirror Universe. These stories cross through other series and are often repeated there.
At the beginning of each chapter, I’ll introduce it with the teaser information (if any) plus the date(s) when a story took place. Some stories take place during several time periods; I’ll try to cover them all. Furthermore, I’ll put the stories together in chronological order by their main time periods. Therefore, it’s entirely possible that I will write something at a later date which takes place earlier. Hence you will probably see some shuffling.
My hope is that by putting these stories together this way, they will begin to have more coherence, and that the reader will be able to better see how it all fits together.
As always, I thank you for reading, reviewing and inspiring.
