This week's challenge: write about something that scares you. Here's what scares me.
Flash Fiction: Something that Scares You
2017 Checklist
What you see up there in the header is our superstitious food of the New Year. Which means... Woo! We made it through the final days of 2016- I won't even say unscathed, because HOLY COW. The last few days of 2016 saw me lose one of my lifetime cinematic-and-otherwise heroes, Carrie Fisher. We lost... Continue Reading →

Single Serve Flash Fiction: Poetry. “Missing.”
A bit of poetry today. "Missing" Today, I find myself missing. People. Ideas. Things. I miss having the capacity to think of myself. I miss having little to take care of. I miss the days of being prudently carefree. I miss the me I used to be. Work work work. No pay, everyday. This life... Continue Reading →

A little bit Truman Show-esque, but within the pages of a novel. Okay, here goes: I... Continue Reading →

22 Days of El’Anret: IT’S HERE!
Happy Book Birthday, Queen of Diamonds! Woo! There are some days in life that change the way you are, forever. That One Day Where All Things Are Undone. For Hazel Leigh Mac Tíre, that day was the day she found the mound in her backyard. It began as small as a mole’s hill, growing and... Continue Reading →
