The Shadows of the Fire
The orc rangers looked at each other. Sadie could understand that - she could hardly believe what she'd just seen either.
Gulmar broke the silence, grunting in approval.
"Fire and greensmoke! That," he grinned, "was a sight to behold. She is worth holdi…

A Lack of Perspicacity
When I write, the usual result is:
This happened.
If I'm lazy:
This happened loquaciously.
If I'm lucky:
This happened verbaciously.
But if I want depth?
This happened, but it indicates a lot of other things may or may not have happened too.

Awareness
By the third day, or at least after my third extended rest, I knew something was wrong.
I woke as usual to the appearance of lighter fog, but discarded the idea as wishful thinking. The light never changed here. Slinging my bag, I set my foot upon the ne…

Corner Time
Having failed my dears, I sent myself to the corner as punishment. I've been there more than a year.
Maybe they're now safer from me, but I'm not safe from them, and they're still not pleased.
But I was thinking. I've been saving my energy all this time. …

Revelations
Lightning flashed like teeth biting into the stone walls. Athel's sandals slapped ungraciously as he ran. His mouth muttered undiscernable phrases. His eyes snatched fearful glimpses of the stormy shore between narrow windows.
Father Osgar was at prayer.…

History Has a Hold on Her
Devra turned her attention away from the Big Ben lego model and glanced over her notes for the evening weather report, her faculties barely involved in the process.
Did this even count as "working on television"? Her path had not led to where her she had …

Rebecca
I still remember her like it was 9 o'clock this morning. She had this new confidence I had never seen before. She knew who she was and what she wanted and I was just happy to be with her, to watch her grow and do the things she wanted.
She was close with…

Coronation Anniversary Ode
Regina Semper! Endless Queen!
Your subjects’ love is evergreen!
We hearken close to your decree
We bow in great respect
.
And when our monarch grandly stands
And utters gentle, firm commands,
Each resident soon understands
Just what you do expect.
.

Cold Glow of Morning
I thought I’d get to kiss your face
And hold your hand when you were sad.
I thought you’d stay, that you would wish
My company when times were bad,
-
And when you thought of times to come,
You’d seen me there beside you, dear,
In peaceful camaraderie. I’m…

Transport Failure
Jim Sanumá parked his car, such as it was, far enough west of the airport not to be seen. Retrieving its cargo from the glove compartment, he gave the lock mechanism a sharp kick. It folded sharply, forming a rough box shape, which Jim shoved into the dit…

More about my thoughts for AdventuresAndSearches
I think what I might do is leave stories in draft form until the story is ready to go, and then just open it all out. The titles will have the series' name so as to help organize things. So I'm going to have one post that's a "table of contents" with link…

I was pretty brave yesterday...meaning, scared, but I took some action.
I set my limits up on my blog, very plainly, not 'targeting' anyone very specifically, but I think at least for one of the people it was going to be very obvious to them. The other se…

A Talent for Love
They say she's got an awesome knack
For giving people love
How can we know if this is true?
Just take it for the truth,
Or is there some way we can test
To verify the claim?
But yes, of course. Just listen to
The way she says my name.
