Re-Greening The World.. Runner-Up in Future Fragments Challenge. Top Story - January 2025.
Water sloshed around my ankles, though that was nothing new. My parents told tales of a world where there was much more land above sea level, where the North and South poles were much larger than they are now. A world with clean air. A World Before.

From Vocal Challenge to Published Anthology
I originally joined Vocal for the Challenges, even if I'm not very good at them. I'm a Planster sort of writer, leaning more towards the Pantster side of things. I may start my stories with an outline, but they quickly take on a life of their own.

2024: The Jukebox Musical
January - Here I Am, Bryan Adams Ah, optimism... I always start the year full of hope and determination. I promptly spent most of January arguing on the internet with people who lacked reading comprehension, media literacy or often both, and trying to maintain that sense of hope against increasingly obvious signs that the year was NOT going to turn out like I'd hoped.

Those Who Are Absent From Our Side But Present In Our Hearts
Gather around, my children. Yes, you, too, I see you trying to sneak away upstairs to look for presents... The winter has always been a time for family and community, from the earliest days when we prayed for the return of the sun, to now when it is too cold to play outside, so we sit around the fire and tell stories in the company of friends and family, as we have done since we huddled in caves and kept a fire burning to ward off predators.
