My interest area for fiction is mainly sci-fi. I have never actually written a fiction story…wait I take that back. I have begun several but never finished.…[Read more]

  • Hello everyone,

    Here are my 500 words after watching the documentary 13th:

    Shelby got in her car unbearably tired and drained after a difficult day at work. She wanted to lean her head against the back of the car seat but her better instincts told her to drove away as fast as she could. She was on the road and her mind automatically flowed back…[Read more]
