Chapter 29 Kol stood on Kessa’s balcony looking over his great city. It was a beautiful sight. Beth interrupted his thoughts; “she is asleep my king. Would you like for me to wake her?” “No. Thank you.” She bowed her head and left. Kol found her asleep. She was his angel. How she looked theContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”

Once there was Darkness
Chapter 28 Court days were always grueling. At this moment, he would rather be going over military accounts. Since the kingdom was growing, he now had two court days every 30 days. Two! He was working with Frego to take on the second day. People bickering all the time, usually over petty issues. Kol saidContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”

Chapter 27 Kol had walked over to work with General Marcus. It was time to work on treasury accounts for the military again. It was long and boring. Not that he didn’t like his city or his people being protected; seems like all he did was look at sets of numbers. She was the lastContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”
Country Chicken
Part 2 of 2 Last night, she came flapping around and ran me from my sleep. The noise. “Bawk. Bawk!” After some time (the moon getting higher in the night sky), I finally found a spot.

She smiled, “all of them.” A hearty laugh escaped him. “Anything amiss?” “Not yet.Continue reading “Once there was Darkness”
Country Chicken
Part 1 of 2 Hi, I’m Connie. That’s what the farmer calls me when he pats my head. I consider myself a country chicken. My life’s pretty calm. Eat, lay eggs, walk about the yard pecking at bugs. Come to think of it, life’s pretty amazing. Every now and then we get some excitement. MyContinue reading “Country Chicken”

Sandstorm Part 9 Kol was too exhausted to sleep. He absent mindedly lit a candle. A faint rattling came to his ears. The thought of a snake in his chambers made him sick. Then a foot appeared from behind a curtain. Kessa entered the room dancing. The rattle he heard was her tambourine. “What didContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”
The Revolt of 2050 Part 2
Switching to Sustainable Energy Windmills were pulled down or blown up. One of the funniest sights I saw was someone trying to pull a windmill down with a car. We never learned if it was staged or not. But the body of the car separated from the frame when the driver floored the gas. WeContinue reading “The Revolt of 2050 Part 2”
The Revolt of 2050 Part 1
Switching to Sustainable Energy Part 1 of 2 Time. Everyone has their separate opinion about time. Some view time as a friend. A trusted companion to walk with us through life. While others see time as a predator. Chasing us. Consuming us. However you choose to see time, it is a constant in life. AsContinue reading “The Revolt of 2050 Part 1”
