When Clara woke up, everything was pitch black. Her eyes felt filmy and crusted, and when she tried to reach up and rub them, her arms were stopped short by straps on her wrists. Irritated, she rolled her shoulder, struggling to rub the grainy feeling away. Wherever she was, it was full of hissing, beeping, and faint skritching noises. Clara groaned softly....
{I haven't been writing much, and this is written over several long and sometimes miserable months. So, it's partly what is going on, partly what went on, almost like taking notes. I did manage to finish one short tale from a long time ago the other day, but it's not easy considering the upsets. What upsets, you might ask? Lots of stuff, so this is just...
It felt weird missing something he didn't even know he missed. The sun had finally fought its' way through the enemy swarm of dark clouds that unleashed their fury on the sleepy Iowa town. To his delight the rays of golden light brought forth thoughts of things that could happen, and better yet the ensuing trip to a zoo in a few days elicited a wave of excit...

Once upon a time is a stupid way to begin a story. And nobody, absolutely nobody in the history of the world has ever lived ever after, happily or otherwise. It's all nonsense. The fact is, "once upon a time" is just another way of saying "I'm skipping a lot of important bits to get to the fun part." Which is fine. A proper story starts somewhere in the mi...
In an America wracked by crime and overcrowded prisons, the government has sanctioned an annual 12-hour period in which any and all criminal activity-including murder-becomes legal. The police can't be called. Hospitals suspend help. It's one night when the citizenry regulates itself without thought of punishment. Summary by Universal Pictures. "David? You...
