Don't Read From The Book!

Don’t Read from the Book!
This one is based on the weekly picture prompt from The Writer’s Mess below, and me watching the Mummy this weekend. It is exactly the dark wtf you are probably expecting from me, and I think it’s similar to something I have written prior, but cannot seem to find now. Anyways, see what happens when you read from the book. Whoever said nothing bad ever came from reading a book hadn’t read from…

This Year, I'm Me
This Year, I’m Me
This story is this week’s response to the weekly picture prompt challenge on the Writer’s Mess, and it heralds in the beginning of a new year. Follow our narrator, as they celebrate New Year’s, and pull a full on Whoville moment where they understand it’s not at all about WHAT you have.

Sit back and enjoy the holiday season with this lovely little Christmas story. Ernest lowered the needle onto the record, and stood eyes closed, as the opening baritone washed over him. He…

Words Left Unsaid
Okay, this this one is a little weird, and I will admit I got a little overly involved in a post that has been going around social media, as seen below. This is the story of Jeanne, and how she finds Claude’s letter, over 150 years later. It also draw inspiration from this week’s Friday Picture Prompt on The Writer’s Mess, with the picture of the Love Locks. It is questionable as where this…

No Silver Linings...
No Silver Linings…
While there are exceptions, on the whole it seems that children don’t quite kid the way they used to. I was disappointed by this at Halloween, and then further surpised by in when babysitting a friends child. Makes me wonder what fiction will look like in 20 years… I remember being a kid and listening to the adults speak about back when they were a kid, and how lucky we had it and thought that…
