Lingering Gossip

Here are some miscellaneous stories. Some are adapted from old allusions, and some are written by myself - martial arts, detective, science fiction, supernatural, a little bit of everything. It's not about literature, just what I talk about in my spare time. Some articles are followed by the author's creative background and mental journey at that time, for comfort. If someone is willing to take a look and comment a few words, that would be great.
