Part 1 "What are you smoking?" River asked his girlfriend Mindy. "Is that marijuana? You can't smoke that! We're in school!" Mindy was indeed lighting up a small joint, even though they were right by their lockers in their high school's hallway. Class had actually let out about an hour ago, but the place was still busy with teachers, athletes, and other ki...

I parked the car at the bridge lay-by having driven completely naked from my home 15 miles away, leaving my clothes at home as I had done in the past.

Those whom she'd loved, (and some who'd loved her, she supposed) had long gone away, moved on or, mostly, passed on.

Tali raised her head, unclasping her hands. The prayer now complete, she stood up, careful not to disturb the candles around her. Even with only the flickering light of flames to illuminate her room, her eyes still functioned near perfectly. A product of both her training, natural born ability, and her affinity for sorcery. Even on the darkest of nights, she...
John-Paul Jackson grew up with his older brothers, David, John-Luke, and John-Mark, on the Mississippi side of the River. Their daddy, Isaac, and their momma, Ruth, raised the four boys on a 20 acre farm near the River, raising cotton, and enough corn, beans, and potatoes to keep the family fed. Every year they would butcher a hog and a calf to keep meat in...
