Aaron Burks sat down in the leather chairs of the waiting room after checking in, careful to stay well away from the other waiting patients. He had recently fallen ill, and with a moderate fever and violent cough, his parents had made him schedule a doctor's appointment to be safe. Aaron's right leg was tapping nervously as he scanned the room. A mom with a...
I. "Let's go, dad!" Jake sighed and massaged his temples with his fingers as he pondered the stack of bills in front of him on the kitchen table. "Just a minute, guys!" he shouted back at his kids. He had promised his boys that he'd take them trick or treating. "Halloween," he said aloud. "The end of the month already." Jake was still trying to figure out...
Well you never would have thought, Irvine Linaker thought, staring at the innocuous redbrick building. He paid the taxi driver, waited until the man drove off and then walked up to the corner entrance. This was a nice neighbourhood. Further down the street he saw people, mainly old blood socialites, queuing up outside the Colonial Theatre. Looking the other...
Earth Algonquin Park Dungeon, Ontario August 15, 2019 17:52 EDT The speed at which we were progressing through the dungeon had increased thanks to Mason and his new halberd.

It all felt like a dream. Joan Woodruff wasn't in the best of moods.

So after the workday wa...
The car didn't belong on his street. Paul Williams knew every car of every house on the whole block, and the car parked two doors down was not only improperly parked on the curb, but shouldn't be in the neighborhood at all. He could see a figure in it, mostly a shadow. He blamed his neighbors. He'd seen this car before, a few days earlier. Parked one drive o...

She still wore a face like a wet Wednesday. Obviously, recent developments were not computing. I'd forgotten how late...

While each story can stand on its own you might want to read the first installment calledDreaming in the Shower where I introduced the characters. The sun was up with blinding light on the beach sand. Having gone through Mexican customs at the US Mexican boarder I finally cleared Tijuana, a...
When I was in my early 20's I used to play a lot of online video games. First person shooters, mostly. The Battlefield series, especially. I had started playing games online with a guy named Chris who had gone to high school with my ex-fiancé. He and I had met through her and had really hit it off. We had remained close even after she and I split. He lived u...
