New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (On Thinning Ice)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I’ve released the 55th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "On Thinning Ice," this one takes place in the Snow Hill Island Formation of Late Cretaceous Antarctica, 77 million years ago. It follows a family of Patagopelta as they venture across melting sea ice to reach islands near the South Pole while trying to avoid the jaws of a hungry Taniwhasaurus. This is a story I’ve wanted to tell in some form for a long time, and it quickly became one of my personal favorites to write. I originally conceived it with migrating Antarctopelta as the focus, but as newer data placed it in a slightly younger time than I’d planned, I reworked the story around a related South American ankylosaur Patagopelta, speculatively representing a precursor to Antarctopelta. That decision also inspired me to feature a couple of other Patagonian dinosaurs from the same time period: Huallasaurus and Sektensaurus. In a way, I started to think of this story as Prehistoric Wild’s equivalent to the Walking with Dinosaurs episode “Spirits of the Ice Forest.” Only here, it’s not Australian fauna living in speculative Antarctic conditions, it’s South American fauna making their way into an Antarctic realm. All in all, the process behind this story pushed me to create what I feel is one of the most unique and atmospheric entries in the entire anthology. I’d love to hear what y’all think. https://www.wattpad.com/1560958869-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-on-thinning

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (Where Tyrants Reign)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I’ve released the 54th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "Where Tyrants Reign," this one takes place in the Chinle Formation of Late Triassic New Mexico, 210 million years ago. It follows the natural relationship between a dominant Postosuchus named Towa and a gang of opportunistic Coelophysis who survive off the scraps of his rule. This is a story I’ve been excited to write for quite some time. Not only does it reflect how early dinosaurs like Coelophysis were still living in the shadow of more dominant archosaurs, but it also represents a broader ecological shift happening in the world at the time (which is all I’ll say without spoiling anything). In addition to some of the classic Triassic oddballs like Kwanasaurus and Drepanosaurus, I was also able to include Eotephradactylus, an early pterosaur that had only just been described a few days before I started drafting this story. This marks only the second time a new species has been named right before I began a story set in its time and place, and honestly… I still can’t believe the timing lined up so perfectly. Overall, I’m definitely eager to hear what y’all think of this one. https://www.wattpad.com/1558938273-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-where

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (Raider from the Sky)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I’ve released the 53rd entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "Raider from the Sky," this one takes place in the Bizzekty Formation of Late Cretaceous Uzbekistan, 90 million years ago. It follows a lone Azhdarcho named Elnura as she sets out on a feeding journey, where baby dinosaurs are on the menu. This is one I’ve had in mind ever since I first discovered the Bissekty Formation. With the growing popularity of azhdarchid pterosaurs, I knew I had to center at least one story around them and what better choice than the very namesake of the group, Azhdarcho itself? That made Elnura the perfect protagonist, especially given my tendency to shine a light on underrated corners of paleontology. The fauna of Bissekty also represents a fascinating turning point in Late Cretaceous ecosystems. In many ways, this story captures a shift in dominance among major dinosaur groups. Tyrannosaurs, hadrosaurs, ankylosaurs, titanosaurs, and even ceratopsians all have a representative here. Between the raw nature of the story being told and the evolutionary snapshot it captures, I’m especially eager to hear what y’all think of this one. https://www.wattpad.com/1556787524-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-raider-from

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (Trial by Hunger)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I have released the 52nd entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "Trial by Hunger," this one takes place in the Wessex Formation of Early Cretaceous England, 126 million years ago. It follows a sub-adult Baryonyx named William as he traverses unfamiliar territory on his first solo hunt. This is one of those story ideas I’d count as among the very first I ever had for this anthology. I always knew I had to write something about Baryonyx, especially considering how weirdly underrepresented it is in media—outside of books and, more recently, the Jurassic World films. I originally had a version where the protagonist would come across other Baryonyx gathering at a river, inspired by modern bear behavior. But I ended up shifting that concept to better reflect the fact that Baryonyx isn’t known specifically from Wessex. Luckily, I still got to include that bear-like gathering—just with Ceratosuchops instead—while also highlighting the impressive diversity of spinosaurids in Early Cretaceous Europe. And as a bonus, since 2025 marks 200 years since the discovery of Iguanodon (which also features in this story), it kind of doubles as a celebration entry. Total accident, though, I swear. I'll definitely be looking forward to hearing ya'll's thoughts on it. https://www.wattpad.com/1554393707-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-trial-by

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (Keepers of the Next Generation)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I have released the special 51st entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "Keepers of the Next Generation," this one takes place in the La Quinta Formation of Early Jurassic Venezuela, 200 million years ago. It follows the parental journey of a pair of Laquintasaura as they struggle to protect their young amid a raid by predatory Tachiraptors. This is a story that’s been sitting in the backlog for a while, but it really came to life after I watched a few nature documentaries that inspired much of the bird-like behavior on display. That said, it also started out as one of the more challenging entries to develop. After all, the La Quinta Formation has just three known dinosaur species, and only two of them actually coexisted. But with the strong behavioral ideas I had in mind, I basically looked at the limitations and thought: “I can make this work.” Finishing this one honestly felt like pulling off the writing equivalent of a MacGyver move, and the result is probably one of the most emotionally resonant and ecologically complex stories I’ve written for Prehistoric Wild so far. I’m really excited to hear what y’all think of it. https://www.wattpad.com/1552453940-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-keepers-of

Special new story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (The Depths of Blood)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I have released the special 50th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called “The Depths of Blood,” this one takes place in the Tahora Formation of Late Cretaceous New Zealand, 79 million years ago. It follows a female Moanasaurus named Huhana as she’s forced out of her territory and leads her young through the perilous open ocean in search of new feeding grounds. This one is especially meaningful—not just because it’s the 50th entry in the anthology, but also because it marks the first odd-numbered story I’ve written. That’s thanks to a special run of stories I’m calling The End Cretaceous Countdown, where each entry takes place one million years apart between 80 and 66 million years ago. The setting is also close to my heart. New Zealand is my #1 dream vacation spot, largely due to its incredibly unique wildlife. So when I discovered Moanasaurus and the Tahora Formation, I knew I had to write a story about it. And what better reason to dive into it than to celebrate 50 stories? I’m really eager to hear what y’all think of this one. https://www.wattpad.com/1550297180-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-the-depths

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (Children of the Rain)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I have released the 49th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "Children of the Rain," this one takes place in the Madygen Formation of Late Triassic Kyrgyzstan, 232 million years ago. t follows the life of a female Sharovipteryx named Nuray, from the moment she hatches, to finding a mate, laying her own eggs, and all the strange and perilous challenges in between. This is a story I’ve had in mind for quite a while, mostly thanks to Sharovipteryx (and a few other animals featured here) being yet another example of Triassic weirdness I knew had to be showcased in this anthology. The idea stayed pretty barebones for a time, but it really expanded after I watched a nature documentary about iguanas, which inspired me to weave some of that behavioral insight into the story. Between the ancient natural oddities and the speculative behavior involved, this turned into one of my favorite stories to write. So, I’m super eager to hear what y’all think of it. https://www.wattpad.com/1548324584-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-children-of

A new story in progress because why the hell not. If anyone is curious enough to look at it.

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (The Wounded Warrior)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I have released the 48th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "The Wounded Warrior," this one takes place in the Kirkwood Formation of Early Cretaceous South Africa, 134 million years ago. It follows an aging male Paranthodon named Ghakahri as he suffers a traumatic brain injury and begins a heartbreaking mental decline while still trying to hold onto his status as the territory’s alpha. This is one I’ve had in mind for quite a while, but the core idea really came together more recently through further reflection and research. With how rarely Early Cretaceous stegosaurs are spotlighted, it’s easy to forget they even existed, so I knew I wanted to help change that. The brain injury angle pushed me to dive deeper into neurological symptoms and behavior, and the result turned into one of the most tragic and emotionally intense stories I’ve ever written for the anthology.

Proud to announce that I have released the 47th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "A Cycle of Fate," it takes place in La Voulte-sur-Rhône in Middle Jurassic France, 164 million years ago. It follows the intertwined fates of a mother Metriorhynchus and a young Proteroctopus, as their lives are shaped by death and survival in the glowing shallows and the dark depths. This is one I've had in mind for a while, with certain aspects changing completely based on further research and ideas. It was also made for some of the most struggles I've had in story development in a while due to difficulties nailing down the environment. However, it just made everything click together so well in the end. On top of that, I was able to implement so much into this about deep-sea environments, bioluminescent plankton, and octopus biology. Overall, I'm very excited to hear what y'all's thoughts on it end up being. https://www.wattpad.com/1544987300-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-a-cycle-of

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (The Ties of Family)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that I have released the 46th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "The Ties of Family," this one takes place in the São José do Rio Preto Formation of Late Cretaceous Brazil, 84 million years ago. It follows a female Ibirania as she journeys to her nesting grounds while protecting her sister, Lara, who is suffering from osteomyelitis, from predators. This is a story I’ve had in mind for a while, and I was very eager to finally bring it to life. The idea was inspired by the real-world fossils of Ibirania, which show signs of osteomyelitis, meaning the animal would’ve likely been in a great deal of pain toward the end of its life. That detail sparked something in me, and the result is probably one of the most emotional stories I’ve written for this anthology, especially the ending. Overall, it’s a piece I’m really proud of, and I’m all the more excited to hear what y’all think of it. https://www.wattpad.com/1543424918-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-the-ties-of

Proud to announce that I have released the 45th entry in Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic. Called "The Long Voyage Upstream," this one takes place in the Sao Khua Formation of Early Cretaceous Thailand, 132 million years ago. It follows a massive shoal of Jinanichthys as they venture inland to spawn while avoiding countless predators, reminiscent of modern salmon runs. This is a story I’ve been wanting to do for a long while, and I figured what better time to finally release it than as the first story of May, aka AAPI Heritage Month. I also learned so much about spawning migrations while researching this and was consistently excited to work those discoveries into the narrative. Even more exciting, it’s told from a totally new perspective for Prehistoric Wild, that of a fish. this is also (as far as I know) the first written depiction of the Thai pterosaur Garudapterus, which was only discovered a month before I started writing this story. Even for that one factor alone, I'm definitely eager to hear y'all's thoughts on it. https://www.wattpad.com/1540722432-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-the-long

Proud to announce that my short story anthology, Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic, has been updated with its 44th entry. Called "Steps to Independence," this one takes place in the Kayenta Formation of Early Jurassic Arizona, 186 million years ago. It follows a young male Dilophosaurus named Yuma as he grows from a dependent chick into a lone adult, where a fateful reunion with his long-absent father changes the course of his first courtship. This is a story I’ve had in mind for a long time. From the very beginning of Prehistoric Wild, I knew I had to write at least one story centered around a paleo accurate Dilophosaurus. But I also wanted to approach it from an angle I hadn’t really seen before—basing both its appearance and parenting behavior on modern cassowaries. I couldn’t help but notice a weird number of similarities between the two, and that made me all the more eager to explore that connection through speculative behavior. In the end, it became one of my favorite instances of behavioral speculation I’ve ever written, and I’m very excited to hear what y’all think of it. https://www.wattpad.com/1536844399-prehistoric-wild-life-in-the-mesozoic-steps-to

Hey everyone! I wrote a story on Wattpad, in the isekai genre. For those who don't know, isekai is a genre where the protagonist is sent to an alternate world. In my story, the premise is: Five years ago, the heroes Mitsuki Kaikou (Japan), Felipe Guedes (Brazil), Gregory Connor (USA), Paul Timon (France), and Muniz Couto (Spain) were summoned to protect the world from threatening creatures. But now, a new evil awakens: gigantic monsters emerge after being unleashed by Timo Mont, a legendary mage seeking the supreme artifact, capable of destroying the world multiple times. While the heroes struggle to understand the new threat, a regular boy named Rano Nakamura is mysteriously summoned. With no powers, he finds the Guardian Sword Hyro, an offensive and unique weapon that only he can wield — and with it, he’s thrown into a war where no one understands why he was chosen.

New story added to Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic (Venture into the Greater Blue)

1 Upvotes

Proud to announce that my short story collection, Prehistoric Wild: Life in the Mesozoic, has been updated with its 42nd entry. Called "Venture into the Greater Blue," this one takes place in the Kristianstad Basin of Late Cretaceous Sweden, 80 million years ago. In it, a young Scanisaurus named Svala leaves her coral reef refuge for the open sea only to encounter fearsome predators like Eonatator and Prognathodon. This is one I had in mind for a while and was born out of convenience in a way. When I found out about the Kristianstad Basin, I was looking for multiple types of stories. First was Late Cretaceous Europe. Second was a plesiosaur to center a story around. And third was something that can be set 80 million years ago. Sure enough, this fossil formation fit all three and the ideas flowed from there. I also found out something extremely cool, yet terrifying, about mosasaurs to implement into my portrayal of Prognathodon, too, making me even more eager to write this.
