"Maybe plastic pants would help," Epiphany said to my father, as I stood there, pants around my ankles, having just had yet another whipping for bedwetting. This time, in front of my college crush! I love Epiphany so much. We call her "Piff" for short at Buttermilk State, and she is easily the cutest girl in the junior class. Because of Father's rules, f...
Chapter 6 – Just visiting the nuthouse. Tom took it really well, he didn't faint or anything. He might have been a bit green when Andrea gave him a hug, but overall... My crazy life seemed to fascinate him, him only caring that I was happy with it. I guess he was just about ready for anything after all the energy tricks he had seen me do over the last mont...
The world as we knew it ended not with a whimper, but with the howls and shrieks of countless horrors. How the 'Cataclysm' came about is still pretty sketchy. What we do know is that without warning, in late December, a massive comet streaked across the Earth's atmosphere, passing over what used to be the South American continent before exiting above Austra...

"Katrin, as you are probably well aware, this program tends to feature segments about true crime, ripped from the headlines. Now, there are some people who would say that the activities of BJ Bliss do in fact constitute a crime. How do you respond to that?" Bryan asked her from the interview chair, shuffling his notes in his lap. "Some people?" Katrin asked...
I lay on my back with pillows under my hips for the required fifteen minutes. During that time, Jim got redressed and got more wood for the fireplace. Once I was allowed to get up, I got dressed and we decided that we should go to the main cabin and actually spend time with our family. My name is Anna by the way and I'm telling you how I tried to enjoy my C...
(C) - GratefulFred I still remember the day when my papa was giving me a lift to school with my buddy Jimmy. “Jimmy, did you know that most words in English have a root in Pornish? Give me a word. Any word will do,” said papa who once again embarrassed me as usual. “How about “Frosty the Snowman” Mr. Cockinpussypuss” Jimmy asked. “Yes…Frosty is like Frig...
In our small town, there were no supermarkets or malls. When we needed vegetables we either went to the mandi, the vegetable market that was set up in the open turf near the town centre, or vendors brought them to our localities to sell them. In our neighbourhood, there was a regular vendor who came every day to sell us vegetables and the women were quite fa...
(Authors Note: This is inspired by an unusually long and detailed dream I had, that I had unfortunately woken up too early from. It reads best if you start at the first chapter even though it starts slow. But to stay true to the story line and the characters I felt it best to wait for the action instead of rushing things.

I rushed through St. Pancras Station to board the 07:16 Eurostar to Amsterdam. It was a last-minute decision; I'd run out of cannabis, and Amsterdam's the closest place to purchase it legally. I'm an American ex-pat, retired, and living south of London. I'm old, and many I've known my entire life have died. My parents, aunts, and uncles are all gone. I'm t...
