Part 4 A young man stuck his head out of a door, “thanks boss.” If the look on his face was an indicator, Mini might be on the menu. “Are you the only game in town?” They started walking away from the garage around the hotel, toward what might be Main Street. “No, my formerContinue reading “Dracula’s Summer Home: Rushsylvania?”

Winter Season
Inside The wind whipped down the street in cold December fashion. The first day of the month was turning out to be a bear. He snuggled a little tighter in his coat. He did love winter but could do without the wind unless he was all snuggled into his blanket on the couch. This windContinue reading “Winter Season”
Dracula’s Summer Home: Rushsylvania?
Part 3 Dracula always fascinated Bo. The intrigue. The mystery. The underlying tension caused her mind to race. She fell asleep with Dracula dancing through her dreams.

New neighbors?

Winter Season
Piece of work Everything was moving in slow motion. Neither the splinters nor the bullet ever hit the floor. He watched them move, an inch seemed to take years to travel. A crashing noise pulled Oscar’s attention back toward the door. It swung open, again in slow motion as a boot appeared just above theContinue reading “Winter Season”
The Snake and The Rabbit
The thought of this makes me cry all over again. My friend with the iron clad constitution fell apart. That powerful, logical mind was overcome, undone. Long after the last mourner went home, Holmes stayed at the grave side. I sat in the shadows for a long time watching him. I could not abandon himContinue reading “The Snake and The Rabbit”
Winter Season
Dream to panic He was outside in the snow. His senses were flooded with joy. He stretched his arms out allowing the snow to hit every inch of him that it dared.
