An old friend had built a place on the lake and I had ran into him at the local cafe. He was in town on business and was eating lunch. To make a longer story short, I asked abou...
Tilly sat fidgeting behind the terminal. Her hands rested on the keyboard, but she pulled them off again. "You're sure it's her?" she asked. "Yes," I said. "She knows you.

Friday and Saturday nights, the younger set, show up to play pool and so...

Chapter 9: Changes Nya pulled into the parking lot of her old high school. She hadn't been back here but twice in the last ten years and that was only because she wanted to see friends at the homecoming football game the two years following graduation. She had too many negative feelings associated with North. It was too close to home and too close to where...
Chapter 1 - The Initiation Sometimes you only get the confidence to get out of life the things you really want when you take a chance and see how it goes.
