Amy G. Lindsay
Fiction & Poetry

The stories and poems linked to this page were written for my own enjoyment from my High School years to the present. Anything posted within the last three months will have a New graphic in front of the title.


Legolas
With the release of The Lord of the Rings, I remembered this poem about the elves leaving Middle Earth that I had written in High School.
Of Debris and Smoke
I wrote this a few days after the World Trade Center tragedy.
Learning Curve
Almost a decade ago, a friend of mine had an idea for a book about women's spirituality. She had asked for contributions. The book was never finished, but Peggy Wilson and I resurrected it in an abbreviated form and called it Missing Words.
I Call On You
Another of the Missing Words poems, written while my friend Peggy was in the hospital.
Is There a Doctor in the House?
My Maine Coon tried his best to heal what was wrong with me, but it took a while for the human to understand.
Unexpected Gifts
I posted several flying stories for rec.aviation. This one is about my first flight with a passenger.
Veni, Vidi...
Another flying tale about my first cross-country flight.
No Soap, Radio!
I was plagued with bad luck as a student pilot...not to mention a shyness about talking over the radio. This time, the radio struck back.
All the Wrong Reasons
This story takes a minor character from the science fiction show Earth 2 and explores his motivations for taking on the dangerous job of ferrying colonists to a planet 20 light years away.
Women of "Chivalry"
Rafael Sabatini wrote the novel "Chivalry" in 1935. He is often criticised for how women are protrayed in his works simply because he wrote adventure fiction. This article also appears on The Rafael Sabatini website.
The Jeweled Peacock
The Jeweled Peacock is a fairy tale I wrote with the intention of adapting it for puppets.
