This is what this site is all about: Writing.
In his quest to win an indictment for crimes against the English language, Troim has been spending some of his off hours writing fiction since 2010. As his output needed to go someplace, the admin created this site back in 2014.
The private section only accessible to members with an account, as in fellow authors acting as beta readers, serves as repository for work in progress.
Published and ready to get read
The public section provides direct access to
- free short stories,
- the free Campetition series and
- the free OMM output.
It also list Troims published eBooks that are available on many platforms. As of July 2026 there are
- six Dime Novels and
- the free 1kYears series.
Former Work in Progress
“Beautiful Potholes”: Troim’s 2019 NaNoWriMo project barely counts as near future fiction, there’s a lot of fact based infotainment involved. But it involves aliens discovering Lagos by means of Google StreetView, Wikipedia and YouTube, hence it can be called SciFi.
“Beautiful Potholes” was in post-NaNoWriMo rewriting and scheduled for beta reading in February 2022. And that’s the end of this dime novel: By an unfortunate coincidence, the hero happens to be a Ukrainian who ends up impersonating a Nigerian for online gig purposes. This plot had a fair chance to be considered amusing in the time before the tragic escalation of Russian-Ukrainian war on 24 February 2022. Under the current circumstances it is no go, no way. The project has been shelved, at least until an armistice is achieved, probably forever.
Formerly Upcoming projects
Fully plotted and partly casted, the plots listed below had been in the making when the “Beautiful Potholes” project crashed.
Troim might go back to these ideas if and when he’s once again ready for longer formats
- June, forever It’s just a first-in-humans clinical study for Parkinson’s disease. But you don’t always get what you’re looking for… One more go at the still somewhat mysterious ways of the human brain, and ways to mess with it.
- Capacity Constraints Recovery from the dark matter research stress of the Plugger Stuff is a precondition for one more look at the frontier of textbook physics. About time…
- Toe Factor Positive Less imminent future than Think-o-mat, more genetics than neurology, lots of (hopefully well hidden) sociology. With neighbours like these, who needs aliens? On second thoughts: Being aliens, that sounds very much like something Toe Factor Positives would do.
- Jumpers Intra- and intergalactic traveling, one more innovation. If a cat in a box can be both… Troim has yet to come up with a plausible way for humanity to survive this encounter, but the mode of transport is flashy. Very flashy. Too flashy to let the idea go to waste. Flashy and fast. Mostly fast, actually. Faster than the mode of traveling in Plugger Stuff. Very, very, very fast. Which is a must, considering the distances involved.
- Blissful Mediocrity No time travel with Troim, plain old archeology will have to do. Three scientists from the Medioud era get punished for their lack of diligence. Instead of pursuing their cutting edge neuroendocrine research, they have to contribute to the Historical Failures Awareness project. Yuck.
Copyright Notice
Why register garbage? Why bother about copyright for something that most probably will never find any audience, never mind a paying one?
Because it is possible. And the certificates do look cool, if in a resolutely vintage ink-meets-paper way. Scientifically minded readers who won’t believe one can officialize a pile of amateurishly written rubbish may check the library of congress for Troim Kryzl. Yes, one can.
