Michael’s Musings

In this mad wholesome corner of the 'Stack, you'll find stories about angels and other unusual characters, thoughts about my writing process, and ongoing serials about the superheroes of Edison City. Welcome to my world.

This is the home for my Substack superhero serials: Gaseous Girl, Captain Happily Married and Super Soccer Mom, and more! They live in Edison City, fighting villains such as the Rogue Jaywalker, Behemoth Bob, Crudmuffin, and Hiccup Holly, making the world safe once again. And yes, they wear capes. Because no matter what they tell you, capes are cool.

In which I comment about my writing process, superhero movies, the world generally, and why I think that the Yooks had a guy on the inside regarding the Zooks' weapons development program. Among other topics.

In which Edison City's heroic defender of truth, justice, and matrimony, Captain Happily Married, answers questions from your characters about life, inter-personal conflicts, and what to do when your superhero suit gets jammed in the washer. Write in with your characters' questions today!

Short fiction that's not part of The Tales of Edison City or "Ask the Captain", often written for a prompt or fiction challenge. These will sometimes include stories about angels, entirely made up (with apologies to the real ones).

I'm writing a novel! 50,000 words, live on Substack! In a month or less! Here we go!
