Katie Sugden carefully guided her bay gelding down the narrow path deep in thick woods on a remote part of Home Far. Not far behind Masie Wylde followed on her grey mare. Emerging into the open, they found themselves in a very secluded meadow, with a sparkling clear stream leading to a small lake, the whole area was so tranquil and on a hot summer day like...
The truck moved smoothly along the interstate as we crossed Northern Pennsylvania. My brother Tom and I were headed for another weekend of bike racing in New Hampshire. This event was like the six others we had attended since school ended in May. The only difference was a special ladies race on Saturday night. A typical weekend event consisted of travel on...
It was a bright, sunny and very warm day. Perfect for a late summer hike. Plus we saw lots of wildlife. Particularly birds. Shame I didn't bring my camera with me since I enjoy photographing wildlife. Especially avian, but I left it home. If I knew we were going to take a hike over the weekend I wouldn't have. We finally reached the stream, which is the ha...
I really couldn't believe it was happening. Even now, looking back from the vantage point of several months gone by, it seems kind of surreal. Except it did happen, and the situation continues to evolve and get more strange. But that first time, on the boat at Lake Powell, it was like I was looking at two other people from a distance, through a soft-focus...
Did you ever have a person in your life that you secretly wanted so bad? Someone that you knew was out of your league for a number of reasons, including you being 10 years older? Well like most of you, I have one of these people in my world. Her name is Tracey, and she's my friend's sister-in-law. I first met her when she was probably 14 years old in about...
Recently, I met a woman named Reiko. Like me, she was born in Japan, and is studying at Oceanview U. I got drafted to work on this project for school with her, and she invited the group of us to come over to her house, so we could get to know each other. We met at a cafe near her house—Prof. Olgren, a nice older lady who worked in Japan when she was young, m...

The department of Inter-dimensional cryptids, kabbals and spells is a secret, international organisation dedicated to the management of magical artifacts and prophesies. The securing containing and protection of them if you will. The agents of this department are extremely overworked, due to the nature of the job they only get one day off a year. Most agents...
They had become our closest friends. Since moving to Florida we had not had much time with work and the kids' schools to meet many people. Luckily, John and Anna lived next door and had befriended us on the day we moved in. They were close to the same age yet a few years older and we all seemed to hit it off well from that very first day. John was the large...
It had been a long, intense day of travel, but even as the sun started to dip over the edge of the horizon, the last few steps were taken, and you looked upon a gaping crevasse, the entrance into the dreaded halls of Drath'nalak. Inside was rumored to be wealth beyond measure, anything from simple piles of gold to enchanted jewelry, magic tomes, technologica...
