I love Halloween, not just the day, but the whole season. I go to as many costume parties as I can. I sometimes have to crash the parties, but with everyone wearing a mask no one notices me. That's the benefit of costume parties, no one notices me. The rest of the year everyone tries to avoid me, ever since the accident. Ten years ago I was riding my bicyc...

My best friend Katie and I met at the coffee shop like we did nearly every week. We had been best friends since college, and we had done almost everything in life together. We got married within a year of each other, had our first children the same year, and basically spent each year growing together as the best of friends. We met at least once a week at th...

It is a slim looking piece of headwear with a closed visor that covered the eyes, fanc...
"Hello? Is there anybody out there?" Jessica found herself sitting on a concrete floor in pitch black. She blindly felt around and found a chain cuffed to her right ankle. "What the—" From the far end of the hall, a bright floodlight came on. The sudden spark blinded Jessica. She placed a hand to her brow as the dots slowly faded from her sight. She looke...
William's hand tightened around the scroll case in his satchel. The thought of what was inside filled him with shame -- stolen from the compound's evidence room, like a common criminal. In the week since the events at the old Kelothite cathedral, shame had been a constant companion. The man's thoughts kept wandering back, unwillingly going over the day's eve...

I woke up one day early as I knew an important letter would be arriving. I didn't bother to close my robe, knowing that my neighborhood was safe and no one would give me a second glance anyways.
