I’m posting an update to keep all you interested parties informed about two aspects of my life. One is my private citizen health and wellbeing, and the other is the game-and-fiction production that is the anchor and raison d’etre for this whole site. The Stolzes’ Personal Lives I am safe, my family is safe, everyone…… Read More
I wrote a short game, and you can now buy it for five dollars. Million Dollar Soulmate is a two-person, no-GM, one-shot tabletop roleplaying game about the promise and hazards of seeking romance. It focuses, heavily, on the ambiguity and uncertainty we all encounter while looking for someone who completes us. The key question looming…… Read More
I’ve launched a new collection of short stories! It’s entitled The Sky Is Full Of Ghosts, it’s 310 pages long and combines some of the stories you’ve loved here on the fiction library with material anthologized elsewhere and several new pieces that have never been available anywhere, including… A new story about an Azathoth cult…… Read More
Hey there, good news! The fiction library has been updated, thanks to the generosity of 144 Kickstarter backers. (A literal gross! Except they’re not gross they’re lovely.) You can now read and share about two fresh new horror stories. The Last C+ Student is about what it’s like to be the only person unaffected by…… Read More
Hello, long-suffering Stolze fans. You’ll be glad, I’m sure, to know that another batch of bleak horror fiction is impending for everyone. But as always, the availability to the many depends on those who are willing to step up and support the project. In that spirit, I give you the link to… IN THE DARK.…… Read More
The Kickstarter worked, the money has cleared, and the story is now available! Hey, in this instance, the system works. You can now read my novella about art, murder and patient detection as a .pdf, or you can download an archive of alternate files. Tell your sinister friends!… Read More
Friday I launched a Kickstarter for A Series of Small, Precise Cuts, a 13,000 word story (that’s novella length!) about a creepy killer, the FBI agent in pursuit, and also linocut printing. You can find the project here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gregstolze/a-series-of-small-precise-cuts. If you’re familiar with my fiction library, this project works the same way. If I reach…… Read More
If you’ve been listening to the TERMINATION SHOCK podcast, you’re aware that I wrote a science fiction roleplaying game. It’s been a blast, with alien misunderstandings, amateur politicians suddenly going pro, haphazard business schemes to corner the market on personal hygiene (“we call it SOAPEC”) and the occasional karaoke contest. Having thoroughly playtested it and…… Read More
Hey, so my latest fiction Kickstarter completed! It met its goal and then some! That’s good news. But… we didn’t quite make it to any of the stretch goals. That’s bad news. You know what? I feel like I’ve had enough bad news for today, and I also feel like I maybe (1) asked a…… Read More
Yep. I’m back on it, crowdfunding the opportunity to put more free fiction on this very web page. (Specifically, the good ol’ fiction library.) The project’s called ASSORTED DISASTERS and I launched it yesterday. As of today, thanks to the Unknown Armies bump, the first of five stories is funded! It’s a political horror story.…… Read More
