Lenny was feeling great, he'd just gotten his acceptance email. He was getting to move in to the new development as his fursona. He was pretty happy, it was good to be able to go there and live a better life than he had been, the people were sure to promise that. After waking up and getting dressed, he made his way over to the address marked on the envelope,...
It's for Charity Mr. Edgar Murray, one of the heads of the well-respected Lionheart Charitable Foundation, walked through his modest office with a proud and confident stride. He sat down at his desk, interlacing his fingers together as his shrewd eyes fixed themselves on the two youths sitting before him. One was pale skinned, had red hair and green eyes and...

08. The Lion and the Pussy The three friends continued to make their way through the dark and gloomy forest for the rest of the day, never seeing the light of the sun through the thick forest canopy. Scarecrow and Tin Man were not human, so they didn't feel the need to rest. Dorothy, however, did tire eventually and the other two travelers stood guard while...
Chapter 1 It was a dark and stormy night...thunder could be heard echoing in the cold, crisp autumn air and every couple of minutes there was a bright flash of lightning which illuminated the clouds in the night sky. How appropriate for all Hallow's eve, the night of witches and ghosts, tricks or treats. She checked her image in the rear-view mirror, satis...

Novels, rumors, legends and anecdotes, and you may think you have forgotten them, but they merely hide in the abandoned corridors of your mnemonic palace.

Chapter 09. The Poppy Fields "I think I can see the end of the forest!" "Are you sure, Scarecrow," Dorothy asked. She wanted him to be right this time. She had been in the dark for days and she wanted to get past these woods. "That's the third time you've said you could see the end and we haven't gotten there yet..."

CHAPTER 1 Dorothy was a vivacious 19-year-old, who lived in the midst of the great Kansas prairies, with Uncle Henry, who was a farmer, and Aunt Em, who was the farmer's wife. Their house was small, for the lumber to build it had to be carried by wagon many miles. There were four walls, a floor and a roof, which made one room; and this room contained a rust...
I thank you, sir, for giving me leave to rest my tormented mind. As you can no doubt imagine, it is most trying to recall deeds of such incomprehensible evil and licentiousness.
