Ruthless Instincts

By Seth Martin

A collection of action-packed and comedic short stories and flash fiction. Take a trip through the eyes of several drifters as they traverse the post-apocalyptic wastelands and attract folks not taking too kindly to their presence. Then, shut off all the sanity you had left as you endure the antics of Finch Ferris, a wacked-out, gun-toting, fourth wall breaking mercenary as he partakes in various misadventures in a wacky, satirical version of Los Angeles, California.

Seth Martin

Hello, readers and fellow authors. I am Seth. I don't have much to say about myself at the moment. I'm just a normal guy living in Southern California. I'm a homebody mostly; I enjoy taking walks, writing stories, sometimes songs, reading comics and novels, listening to music, playing video games, surf the internet, and other things. Writing stories has been something I've been doing since my teenage years. Though most of that time, I spent most of them concepting my works rather than put something out there. Let's just say confidence wasn't my strong suit in those days. But, after years of wondering what to post to the world, I finally signed up on this site and published my first official short stories.I'll add more once I get used to how things are run on this site, but for right now, I won't be doing much for the moment but I am currently working on a couple short story books that I hope to post on here when the time is right. Anyway, I should leave you all to it. Have a pleasant day!
