Ok guys, I need your help. I’m editing up an old trunked novel and I’m not sure it’s worth putting time into. I have other stories waiting. This is sort of just a loose end and maybe I need to let it go. It’s sort of a “low key” story (euphemism for kind of plain and maybe boring) that is related to OHAG. Anyway, I’m trying to figure out whether or not...

The Mailmen
Written for Sam’s Challenge #9. Prompt: Small Town Saturday Night. In the OWNMO universe.
Elliot, chin perched on the back of his hand, stared out the open window. The strong shafts of light from the west illuminated his face, giving him an unearthly glow. He hadn’t yet noticed me, standing in the doorway. His back, unlit by sun and covered in black wool, disappeared into shadow, giving the...

“Again!”
Christopher braced for impact. He felt the vibrations in the wooden floor grow stronger as the footfalls grew nearer. “Ooph!”
Zana, a slip of a girl, barreled into him, hit him right in the gut. He doubled over, dropped to the...

Dearest Tumblr,
Yes, I’ve been neglecting you. I’ve been neglecting many things. It’s not you, it’s me. I’ll be back :P
Much love,
