Dawn, who has been a very good friend of mine for years, asked me a question in the course of a conversation that surprised me. The reason that she asked didn't surprise me it was just the fact that she asked it. Dawn and her husband Tony had been on and off for years. They never actually separated but they had lived emotionally separated for years. My husb...
"I'm not ready to go back yet, but it's not like there's anything I can do about it, so I might as well just go with it," I said, half-staring down at my own feet. It was the day before I would begin the long four of years of the hell that was high school, and although I was intrigued by the idea of new people, a new building, and hopefully better food, my e...
Chapter Eleven – Lilith the Avenger Jadranka, formerly known to the world as Danka, presented herself to her professors. She recognized two of the instructors from the Followers' celebrations she had attended earlier in the year. However, there was no special interaction with them.

There were almost immediate backlashes against Muslims... even ones who'd been living in the country all of their lives! Various Islamic organizations in the U.S. denounced the tragedy as acts of violence perpetrated by evil-minded indivi...
Note: This is part one of two. The Second Part is called 'Give It Away – Reprise". I can't get this song out of my head so I might as well write about it. It's by George Strait and I consider it to be one of the finest country songs ever – and I know that takes in a lot of territory. 'Give it Away" has great lyrics, a compelling rhythm and melody and one...
As Rick left his apartment early Saturday morning, his thoughts were about the upcoming day with Katherine. They were planning a day at the seashore and he was pleased to see that the weather was apparently going to cooperate.
