"This is decidedly unpleasant..." Beatrice groaned. Lou sighed, looking up at the ceiling as he tried to let the headache that was filling his skull ease. But it was hard. The past three days, he had been doing nothing -- not enjoying his lovely wife, not reclining in the idle comfort of pastoral life aboard an interstellar starship, not even trying to thin...
As I awoke in the morning, I thought of all of the things I had done with my new gift. I thought briefly that maybe by staying invisible so often might have adverse affects on my body. "Screw it" I thought to myself. If this was somehow bad for my body, I didn't care. Even if this would eventually lead to death, I was going to die happy! Right then I made...
There is a war going on, which the world doesn't know about. There are these entities known as the Siphon. They exist as pure intelligence, intangible and invisible, and completely lacking physical form. In a way, they seem to be spirits. It is their natural state. In this natural state, they are immortal. Unfortunately for them, they are incapable of affect...
The Anomaly - 3755 C.E. What could be seen looked very much like a lion. It was a lion, however, whose tail was alive in a way a lion's tail should never be. Instead of gathering in a tassel, the tail ended with the head and body of a snake that hissed and curled around itself. It was a lion moreover that had the head of a goat arising absurdly from the mid...
Scene: It is early morning in the bedroom of a small but tastefully decorated apartment in Boston, Massachusetts. Diffused light is filtering in from a window with the drapes drawn. An attractive young woman who apparently has been asleep sits up in the bed. The sheet that was covering her falls, exposing beautiful, full, well-rounded, creamy breasts. She is...
'Laney! Laney!' Ghislaine pretended not to hear the call and continued down the lane leading to the cliffs and sea shore. She felt entitled to ignore her mother's shouts - for had she not completed her share of the domestic chores? Was she not now at eighteen full grown, finished with high school and, lucky girl, been promised a job in the nearby town at th...
She didn’t know what she was looking for. Cecilia had always been a fairly independent sort; who else would attempt hiking alone in the Alaskan Tundra? It was summer now, a little warmer, but how many 21 year-old girls would even try? Of course, it would have been far easier to simply sit back at home, and let others take care of her. And she had plenty of o...
The serpent's head slumped to the floor, scarlet blood gushing from its severed neck. The rest of the body stood for a second longer before collapsing into a writhing heap on the smooth, black basalt. Heidr snorted, spitting a few drops of blood from his mouth. He never quite got used to the metallic tang. He wiped his sword on the tattered remains of his tu...
A streak of blue ripped open the sky; a crack of thunder shook the ground, as Cammie made her way thought the tangle of weeds that used to be a front walk. She glanced down at her watch in the next flash of lightning. "DAMN IT! It's after midnight already!" She stooped to untangle her heel, "I hope there is electricity." As she stood, the sky opened up and...
You just never know where life will take you, man. My name is Steve Seraphin. A big and tall Black man of Haitian descent living in the city of Nepean, Province of Ontario. And I am a Black guy who kind of had some racist tendencies. For the longest time. Now I want to be better. I want to open my heart and see people as people rather than lump them into cat...
