The Admonishments of Kherishdar
About
The Admonishments of Kherishdar is a short fiction project by
M.C.A. Hogarth, consisting of 25 stories of 500 words or less about an alien
culture, the Ai-Naidar of Kherishdar. Each one illuminates some facet of
their society, beginning with a specific word from their language, each
themed on the duties of individuals to society. This project is the shadow
side of
The Aphorisms of
Kherishdar, which illuminates the privileges of the Ai-Naidari
society.
This project is funded by
reader donations.
Each donation of $15 sponsors a short, which is posted on the
haikujaguar livejournal and
archived here. A chapbook of all 25 incense stories will be offered for
sale once the full run of stories has been sponsored and posted.
You may choose to
join the list of patrons,
or you are welcome to enjoy the stories that other people have
made available with their donations. If you prefer to read on Livejournal,
each incense story is tagged under
the
admonishments of kherishdar for
easy browsing. You may also wish to browse
the
author's information on the Ai-Naidar, or
search
the author's illustrations of the Ai-Naidar on Stardancer.Org.
You may contact the author at

readers and the author in discussing each short using the link at the
bottom of each story page.
