Hello, I'm Robert, aka Almost Certainly Not Pickles, aka Pickles.
I'm using this platform primarily to host my short stories and longer works-in-process. I want to subject my stories to the public, so I invite you to read and comment.
A little bit about my influences for the informed reader. My favorite genres are science fiction and fantasy though I do make an effort to round out my consumption of media. My favorite authors include, in random order, Tad Williams, Douglas Adams, Victor Hugo, Sir Terry Pratchett, Adrian Tchaikovsky, Dennis Taylor, the ineffable Tolkein, and Robert Rankin.
