Some of Geli's fiction is online here.

- "Olympic Games" li ("Jim is watching the Olympic games one night and learns that at least one of Blair's former lovers was a man. So he decides to change the rules of the friendship game they were playing.") (from Love and Guns #14) (2000)
- "Tomb of the Pharaoh" ("Early Hollywood director James Ellison wants the best from his spoiled star. The matinee idol, however, just wants him. This is a fascinating story of another era, brought to life with Geli's striking imagery and interesting characterizations. And watch for her signature blurring of the gender lines - but don't look for femme!Blair here!") (from Jim and Blair Do the Movies) (2001)

"Snowman" - This wasn't printed in a zine, but Geli likely drew it to accompany her story, Snowman" in Come to Your Senses #18
from Angel On My Mind #1
from Beefstick and Lambchop #2 -- "Her style tends to simple line drawings, and she's pretty good at getting the likenesses with those few pen strokes. These illoes aren't complicated -- most of them are recognizable photo shots taken off the screen. I think this artist will really develop into something, given time." [1]
cover of Soul Bonds -- "Oh yeah, and Geli's art was wonderful, too!" [2]

2003
cover of Bedroom Eyes #1
cover of A Future Retold
cover of Legends #3 -- "This is a rare and beautiful thing — Spock smiling! Of course Kirk is the reason whyas he lovingly looks at Spock."[7]
"This cover is a wonderful sketch of Kirk and Spock, from the shoulders up. Spock is serenely gazing in the distance, with a contemplative expression on his face. Kirk is placed a bit lower and a little bit behind Spock, and he has a great expression on his face. It’s very interesting; it looks as though he is intently studying Spock. The details of the faces are very well drawn, and I especially liked the eyes. I thought the hair was well done, too. I also liked the almost soft focus look of the faces. They are not sharply outlined, yet are very recognizable as Kirk and Spock." [8]
2004
from The Sensual World #3
cover of Angel On My Mind #4 -- "Geli does the cover of this zine. I never would have guessed that either. It's totally different than what I'm used to seeing. I love when artists surprise me. I loved it Geli. I have a quote from Geli and would like to add it here... I wanted to something different for the Shaman pic. Something more symbolic. I used several elements, like the drum and hammer drawn after real shaman drums, the border with decorated with the spirit guides which are called with the drum. The necklace with the tree. The world tree is a powerful shaman sign, it stands for the world and every shaman has his own tree, or is born in one. <g> Trees have a important role in many shaman rituals. [9]
