Aja Part 1 Kessa was walking the palace grounds. The army had been there laying the ground work for gas. “How many soldiers would have still joined if they would have known they’d be doing this?” Max pointed at the ground. 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.

Wal-Mart shopping trip
I went to Wal-Mart for work. You should have seen the looks. I got ‘the looks.’ 😂 Those looks that say, ‘where did she get all her money? Is she shopping for Cox’s army?

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.

Sandstorm Part 8 “Nor do I. There is something about the water that she needs. If you notice, Rajaf has set up a way to heat it.

Kol knew the Bejhar were everywhere. He just wasn’t sure where. Two climbed onto the beach from checking theContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”
A.I.
Artificial intelligence. Two loaded words; with different views on each side of the subject. The science fiction buff in me sees world destruction, the end of mankind. Kuduz Valley as far as the eye can see. I wonder how far kuduz can grow in water? Will the oceans be strangled by kuduz? The realist inContinue reading “A.I.”

Sandstorm Part 6 The entire party held up their hands. King Brum slid off his horse. “We are here to help.” King Kol met him. They looked at each other with caution. “You will answer to Kessa.” He bowed to her, “what do you need?” She, Max, and Kol looked over a map of theContinue reading “Once there was Darkness”
