Start at the beginning Lucas made mistakes. He didn’t like to admit them but his sister pointed them out constantly. “Why can’t you colour inside the lines?” “No, two plus two is not twenty two.” “Look at the mess you’ve made!” He often wished he was as perfect as she thought she was but he […]
Start at part one Lucas was trying to be brave but quickly discovered he was just plain stupid like his sister often said. He trusted Cole, even if Cole wouldn’t admit to seeing him following, and he was now inside the abandoned house, his families voices getting further away. “Cole, where are you going?” Lucas […]
Missed Saturdays “E” post? Visit it today or start at the beginning. Helen’s parents, Judy and Max, heard Helen enter the house and leave. They both got dressed in silence, dreading the conversation that would need to be had well before they were ready. Judy thought their kids would hate that they were working on […]

See part 1: Abandoned Lucas was not about to leave before the rest of the crowd called it a night. Helen already thought he was such a baby and this was a chance to prove her wrong. He felt he was old enough to take care of himself and was surprised she seemed to feel […]
In celebration of completing the A to Z Challenge, and not missing a post, I decided to stay motivated and expand my daily posting but this will be a bit different. Last month each post was random, about words that inspired my passion for writing but now I’m going to write a bit of a […]
This is it! The final installment of the A to Z Challenge and, once again, it’s a challenging letter. I first titled this post Z is for Zombified as it feels like I’m a zombie these days, trying to balance everything I want to do while continuing to do what I need to do. I […]
I was going to write Y is for You as without you, while I would still write, life wouldn’t be the same. You, dear reader, keep me on track, motivated and aiming to please with my writing. You are the reason I publish and not just write, you are the reason I hire cover artists […]
