CROSS TOWN PUBLIC LIBRARY

Lyla Brangwyn striking the Sonic Adventure pose

Hi, my name is Jon, and I've written several books over the years as a hobby. I've hosted them in many places over the years, but I've come to realize that I could also just make my own website to house my work. And, uh, so far, that's about all this website is!

Below, you'll find links to my writings, presented to you through Twine. The presentation varies slightly between them, but the idea is the same; use the links provided in the text to move forward through the narratives, and to save your spot and pick it up later. I'll also provide "about" pages for each to further explain them, and provide a space for character art and other supplemental materials [supplemental materials coming soon]. Please enjoy, and be kind to yourself!
