He has written a number of short stories that have been published in magazines. You can find a few of them for free on his Linktree.

You can also find audio of one of his short stories on his YouTube channel "Hello Future Me". But more than this, this guy is a reader, a viewer and a commenter. Ultimately, he's just a fan of so many of the great works like everyone else is, which can be seen as his greatest weakness or his greatest asset, I'll leave that up to you to decide which.(less)
