Weekly Contest #260
It was all just a dream.Or so I thought.I had fallen asleep thinking about her. That woman from the library. The one wearing a sleek black dress, her blonde hair curled in thick waves falling just to her shoulders. She glanced my direction as she entered, as if her sole purpose of this visit was to find me. My eyes peered over the top of my heavy laptop where I sat, the cursor bobbing on the screen anticipating my next move. Taunting me in my peripheral as my focus was now set on this mysterious person across the room. She sauntere...
Weekly Contest #211
It was dark. Darker than she would have ever imagined it to be. Remembering her map, she pulled it out of her backpack and unrolled it. To her great dismay, she could not read a single thing. The forest was far too dark, and what was even more frustrating was the fact that it was early afternoon. At a time of the day where the earth should be the brightest, it was the darkest she had ever experienced. What was she supposed to do now? Added to the darkness was the violent wind.

I park my car as I always do and quickly step out into the early evening breeze. Instantly, a wave of noise crashes into me–one that sends my head turning and my eyes focused on the scene I have stumbled upon happening across the cove. ...
Weekly Contest #164
V Road Old friend, I’m driving down that road you have always loved. You know the one; it’s the long way home. Its bends and twists are jarring, and I know that one who is unfamiliar with the way she dances may not be prepared for her surprising steps. But you and I, we’ve spent all of our lives learning each one of her tricks. In eighteen years, she hasn’t fooled us yet. And seeing as this road is the one familiar thing from the past, I don’t think she ever will. We’ve spent nearly our entire...
