Red Ink is Therapeutic
There is something Therapeutic about red ink. It means there is a process. Yes. This is a VERY rough draft of one of my stories, but the fact the primary story is on paper is only step one. The red ink has somehow made me feel better today. I opened my email and found a…

Short Story: Chloe’s Ghost ( Part 3 )
Chapter 3 Dr. Marshall looked at the heart monitor which had slowed to what sounded like half the normal amount of beats. When another alarm went off on a machine to the right he bent down on his knees and jabbed some tools up into my stomach. I just laid there. Not moving…

Short Story: Chloe’s Ghost (Part 2)

Allegiant…. ( no spoilers )

So as you probably saw on Tuesday, Veronica Roth’s Divergent Series ended with the release of the book Allegiant. I was … to say the least … a little bit excited. I love Divergent and Insurgent, the first two books in the series, and just couldn’t wait for Allegiant to come out to find out how…
