Mech Shorts | Brief Audio Fictions About Pilots and Mechs

Mech Shorts is a creative archive for short narrative science fiction pieces focused on a pilot and a mech. I created these short narrative pieces as a part of Reese Hopper's Creative Consistency Challenge in early 2025. The goal was to create a small, achievable piece of art for fifteen days straight, so I chose to make short mini-episodes in one of my favorite science fiction genres: mecha. I spent no more than an hour and no less than fifteen minutes on each episode. These are not meant to be highly polished, fully developed works. Instead, they showed me (and perhaps you) what is possible when you simplify things and just get out of your own head when trying to create. Working on these pieces proved to myself that I am a creative, and can create with consistency. And even though these are simple, "just-get-it-done" pieces of art, they provided much enjoyment and even more practice for me in the craft of writing and producing audio narratives. Please enjoy these slapdash science fiction works featuring mechs, pilots, and a variety of situations desparate and otherwise.
