New prose serial · Written for readers 13+.
The Wind Does Not Aim
A tale in the old manner
Sixteen-year-old Chima Greaves builds a machine to prove he is more than his family name — and learns that power never chooses where its consequences land.
Four chapters free. No account needed to read them.
What this is
He is not the Big Bad Wolf
Five generations down. He inherited the name, not the afternoon. The picture books are about someone else.
Sixteen, and on shift
White PPE coverall. Gold bell. The garment is workwear. It is not a costume.
One very bad idea
A mill fan salvaged from a shuttered floor. It does exactly what it was built to do. That is the problem.
Shop
Things from the story
Designed from the tale. No fake stock. No countdown clocks.
Journal
Notes from the studio
Story note
Why Chima is not the Big Bad Wolf
He is a descendant, five generations down, and the whole story falls apart if you forget that.
Process
The coverall is not a costume
White garment, gold bell, warehouse floor. It is workwear, and it matters that it is workwear.
Studio
Building the fan (on paper first)
Salvage sketches, blade counts, and the moment the design stopped being a hobby.
For younger readers
Little Chima
A gentle picture-book corner. No accounts, no shop, no tracking. The main tale is 13+ because it deals with damage, blame, and making amends. This is separate on purpose.
