Different -- A flash fiction

 

“You’re...different. I’ve never met a girl like you.”

She stares at him, hands stilling over her sword. “What?”

“All the girls in my village are so boring,” he says. “So focused on finding husbands that they don’t bother learning about the world.”

Boring

Based on this prompt from writing-prompt-s on tumblr! :

 The Hero may have decided to spare the life of the Dark Lord, but you, the Dark Lord’s Former Coworker, will show no such mercy

The boy in the pool

Hey guys! I'm a little stuck on my current projects, so I decided to revisit some of my horror writing! Horror's always been able to get me out of the worst of my writer's block---here's hoping it works!

I got my first real job when I was sixteen. I was a lifeguard for a comm...

An Elsewhere University Short

Hey guys! If you're familiar with Elsewhere University, then I think you'll like this short story I wrote after I got frustrated with editing a different project.

If you're not familiar with it, all you need to know is that it's about a college with a fairy hill underneath it. The entire concept is made by charminglyantiquated...

Wind-Speaker

Hey guys! This is a really fun prompt from writing-prompt-s on tumblr! You guys get the first look :) It's a little rough because I had to write it around a 60 hour work week, but I really love the story in it and couldn't wait to share it! Let me know if you'd like to see me clean this up as a bonus for next week :)

Proton and Electron Pt. 1

I really wanted to do this all in one part, but it got too long! I'll be working on finishing it tonight but I wanted at least one more short story before the year ends. I can't thank you all enough for your continued support and enthusiasm. I've got some really cool things coming in January and you'll be the first to know!

Hello everyone! This idea has been kicking around my head for a while. I love this universe. Some day I'd love to come back to it and make it just a bit more sophisticated. Thanks for reading!

Warm up: A God Met Death One Day

This is from a prompt by writing-prompt-s.tumblr.com ! It's a short warm up since I really don't have time to do anything but edit these days!

The prompt: 

 Gods die when people stop believing in them. You are a god, and your last follower is dying. Your days are numbered. 

Thanks for reading!...

Madame Science Draft 2 Chap 1

Hey guys! So I've been hard at work on Madame Science all this time! I'm into draft two and thought you'd like to see what will (probably) be the first chapter! It needs another round of editing, but I'm happy with the tone this sets for the rest of the book.

Enjoy!

Scott Mitchell--A Character Origin Story

Hello! I'm so pumped for this little story today, guys, you have no idea.

So one of the issues iIve been having with Madame Science (coming out at the end of October!) is making her love interest, Scott Mitchel (aka the super speedy hero named Light) interesting. Like, she's obviously bomb. She's a super genius trying to discover the...

Eating Gods

[[Happy October First! Or, as I like to call it, Halloween the First! This next short story is long—it took me two weeks to complete and there are still a few kinks I need to work out. I wanted to share it all with you as thanks for another month of support and kind words!

A few words before the story begins: It’s fairly raw. It deals a lot w...

Ghost Heart


Hi guys! I want to start off by thanking everyone who has stuck with me over the past three weeks—I’ve been very erratic with posting and I’m sorry for that. A couple of not so cool things have happened and, sometimes, I just don’t have the energy to write. Thanks for your patience!

Magpie Love

 

“The first rule of love,” her mother says, voice crackling over the phone, “is to never take more than they can give.”

Finola’s eyes dart to the shoebox under her bed and then back out the dorm window. Her room is on the second floor this year and she can see more of the trees than she can see of the grassy space preceding ...

Mind Over Matter

“Mind over matter,” Ray says, balancing three stacked coffee cups in his open hands. He’s sitting in his chair backwards, arms held directly out over the table. If the cups fall, they won’t fall far, which is good because she certainly wouldn’t be cleaning the shards.

Not again.

“Of the same mind,” Georgia counters. She’s go...

A Love Story

This was a lot of fun to write! I really love this concept and have been playing around with it for a few weeks now. Though I‘m really happy with Adelaide and her framework, I would really like to rewrite this story someday! Maybe with an urban fantasy/detective type of vibe so that the more abstract parts of the world shine, if that makes sense ...

New Video!

Hey everyone! Hope the concept is at least interesting--I have a long way to go in terms of editing!

Just a reminder that the poll for my  next project will be closing tonight! If you haven't had a chance to, please cast your vote. I'll be starting work on that Monday :)

Thank you so much!

Resurrection Never Goes Right

Hi guys! I'm really excited about this short story. It's a little dark and is a fairly clear metaphor for rape/rape recovery and if that's not your cup of tea, don't worry! I have something lighter planned for tomorrow.

Supernatural School Chapter Five

Hey! So this is the second to final version of this chapter (the fully edited version being in the book already!). It's kind of become the monster chapter to me--trying to pin down a lot of action without losing the reader's intimacy with Gauge as a character!

Hey all! So this is Chapter Four of the book coming out (hopefully!) this Friday!

Supernatural School Chapter Three

 

The sun is down, its harmful rays well below the horizon, when the shimmering air tears. It should still be too bright to see stars, but that’s what shines through the rip, in purple and blues and endless black. The black oozes back, further and further, dragging the grass with it until there’s a bridge of dirt and green and endless st...
