    To See Death- Part 1: Visitation

    Darius woke to voices in his head. Tired, he rubbed his face with one hand and looked around the room: nothing but a dresser, a single window, and a closet door. Then music began to play, and he remembered the Bluetooth earbuds in his ears. He took them out and yawned. “Oh yeah,” he mumbled, ...

    Truth Or Dare

    Daylight fades, and Caleb stares at the vacant, decrepit house. Dirt-coated snow runs along the front of the old, yellow building, and filth coats the entire structure. The rickety porch threatens to collapse, and the sight of it causes Caleb to let out a sharp breath. The fourteen-year-old regrets his choice for completing a dare ...

    Lucas Meets Ana

    “Lucy, what if she wants to kiss me?” Dai asked me, nervously wringing his sun-kissed hands, and dancing around like a toddler doing the potty dance. I looked at my friend as I raised a strawberry blonde eyebrow. His light brown hair looked like a squished porcupine on his head. “Dai I think-Did Dria roll ...

    Smile

    In her hand, she held a yellow smiley face bouncing ball. She offered it to him as if she were offering him her soul. Matthew stared at the blued eyed, blonde hair, little girl that stopped him in the park. She wore a tattered dress that might have once been pink and a look of ...

    The Ravine

    Debbie haphazardly parked her SUV in the middle of the curvy canyon road. She jumped out and sprinted toward the edge of the ravine. Her heart threatened to burst from her chest as she caught sight of her son’s crashed motorcycle. She peered twenty feet downward and scanned the rocky depths for her son, Jake. ...

    Book Of Manifestation: The Storm

    Edel stood on a black sand beach, turbulent waves licking at the bottom of this long red robe. The sky above him was a chaotic mess of blacken clouds and a crimson horizon. A storm was coming, one that would change the world of Exangs forever. The storm was a manufactured cloud of pure magic ...

    The Winter Witch

    Howling winds gust through trees, forcing branches to graze the house’s siding. Their finger-like limbs taunt and tease, and Harlie bolts awake. Her heart races as she listens with a keen ear. She shivers and grumbles about Kurt’s new work schedule, which leaves her alone at night. Tapping the mattress with a hand, she calls ...
