Kitty Land
Kittens were always a reoccurring motif in my dreams. I guess, I just liked those four legged, furry little demons that much. At times, it was former pets who came to visit me and allowed me to reminisce and sojourn in times long past. At others, it was nothing but ...
Woman in White
How do you react to someone calling out to you in the middle of the night? What if it happens in a dark, deserted street? With a mixture of worry and apprehension? That’s how I reacted. I jerked around and almost dropped the cigarette I’d lit.In my mind, I imagined ...
My Brother Invited Me to a Meditation Retreat. I Should’ve Never Accepted.
Andrew had always been a free spirit. He was the type who worked here and there to scrape by, but had no real aspirations to do, well, anything. When he told me he’d joined a meditation retreat outside of town, it was only fitting for him, and seemed to be ...

The Long Ride – Part 6
Hey there, everyone, sorry for the lack of updates. After what happened on day six, I just needed a few days to get myself together and to get some well-needed rest. Things got out of hand, more so than any other day before, and I’m more than lucky to even ...
The Long Ride – Part 5
Hey there, everyone. I officially made it through day five of the Long Ride. Quite a few things happened today, but while some of them were strange and terrifying, I also had a rather interesting conversation with a fellow passenger. Still trying to figure out what to make of it, ...
The Long Ride – Part 4
Hello there, everyone. Day four is officially over, and it was a strange one to say the last. It was, however, similarly terrifying as the prior day, for… various reasons. As I said, I hadn’t slept and even after I’d typed out the day’s events; I wasn’t able to. Before ...
The Long Ride – Part 3
After last night’s encounter with the group of thugs, I was quite shaken. I didn’t know, however, what day three would hold in store for me… I still kept to my people watching, and I still made up stories about my few lonely companions during the quieter hours, but not ...
