Misfortune's Sons: Chapter 1

A word of caution: This is a romance story that contains mentions of substance abuse, mental health struggles, and homophobia. If that does not sound appealing, let that kind assistant The Back Button escort you to deviations more to your liking. Cheers! I should have known that my day is about to take a turn for the worse when I spot my ex from Sixth Form in the produce section of the supermarket where I work. It’s as if an unwelcome ghost from my past is paying me a visit; thirteen years after we broke up and I still recognise her instantly. She’s tall and elegantly lean, with curly red hair that falls past her shoulders. She’s still as fashionably dressed as she’d always been in our teenage years. I wonder where her life had taken her that she would be buying strawberries at an upscale supermarket at ten in the morning, but I don’t dare approach her. Instead, I disappear into the stock room of the store until I am quite sure that she has left. I would be mortified if she

Norm was none too shy about soliciting 10 thousand kroner cheques from his friends at the bar Monday night. “Alright, time to pay up. No discounts for friends, sorry,” he laughed. “We’ll carry this election yet, boys, you’ll see.” Kjell swallowed as he wrote down each digit of the measurable sum on a cheque and then handed it to Norm. He’d never been one to pay much attention to politics, but for the first time he was wondering if he was doing the wrong thing by helping Norm with the fundraiser. More than just a bad decision, was it a morally wrong one? He took a swig of his beer and realised he was going to need something stronger to get him through this evening. “At least someone’s going to do something good with my money, since my wife certainly isn’t,” Henrik grumbled as he slapped down a cheque in front of Norm. The handsome financier collected the pieces of paper like poker chips. “She went to get some fancy makeover this week, although if you ask me she didn’t look

“Janek, are you even listening to me? You know I can’t pass this class without your help,” Stein said, waving a hand in front of his tutor’s face. Janek blinked as he was brought back to the present. “Yeah, sorry,” he muttered. He had received the letter from Øyvind three days ago, and this was his first time meeting Stein since then. Janek had appreciated Pavel’s support after receiving that devastating message, but his friend’s kind presence had not entirely cured him of the deep despair he’d felt since reading the dying words of his former boss. It had been hard to concentrate on anything since then. “What’s up with you? You’re not usually this distracted,” Stein commented. The two of them were sitting in the Sjømann Café on a chilly evening. With a weighty sigh that did nothing to push his mental burden away, Janek replied, “It’s nothing. There’s just…a lot on my mind now.” Stein eyed his friend suspiciously. “Who’s been bothering you lately? I can sort that out

My Bio

I'm just an average ace guy who writes romance. I've featured my two novels on my homepage, but you'll also find male weight gain stories in my gallery, along with LEGO photography and art of my OCs. I've been vegan since 2014, wear glasses with practically centimetre-thick lenses, and enjoy watching Thomas & Friends. In other words, I am a total chick magnet.

Another fun fact about me is that I am not an actual doctor. Save your question about that rash for someone else. However, I expect to be a doctor in less than two weeks (!) if my life stays on track, and will update this paragraph accordingly when that occurs.

And while we're still on the subject of me, I am generally mistaken for an extrovert, when really I don't like to be around people much. I love cooking and eating (especially dessert), but am very skinny since I'm always training for various athletic competitions.

I also trade llamas because I want to be the proud owner of 100K of them. Why? I don't know. I suppose it's because the llamas are there.

Thanks for visiting!

- Tom

Introducing the Jester's Guide to Redemption!

0 min read

I am very excited to be working on a new novel called The Jester's Guide to Redemption. The first chapter is published in my gallery. What is the story about? There is a little enemies to lovers, some country boy goes to the city, and some fairly evil finance bros all in a fictional Scandinavian-ish country. Janek is a teenager who has escaped from the crushing poverty of his own town to begin studying at his country's premier university. Kjell is a financier who lives a decadent lifestyle and whose work is plunging his city into greater despair. The stories of these men intersects in an astonishing way. 30 chapters are planned as of now and I look forward to sharing them with the people on this website! My other novel, Misfortune's Sons, the best romance featuring a lawyer you will ever come across, is fully published in my gallery with 22 chapters.

Thanks so much for the points!

You're welcome!

Hooray~! You were kind enough to let Todd Chavez crash on the couch of your Favourites! Don't worry: While he may seem a lazy slacker, you're not soon going to find a nicer, funnier and more helpful guy than him. Just.. helpful in his own, Todd way

Also, now that you own my exclusive piece of art, you can see the favourites coming in! I wonder if that means that I won't get to see that...
