Ocean Madness . Content Warning.
A vibrant wooden boat lead by Captain Jensen sets sail from the docks of England, glistening under the sun's golden rays, reflecting a kaleidoscope of colorful hues, from its bright red hull to its crisp white sails, the boat gracefully glides through the water, leaving a trail of monstrously huge ripples in its wake.

Fairy Tale
Fairy Tale is a great new book from Stephen King. There’s already a movie being made based on the book. It’s really detailed and has descriptions of the other world the main character walks into that are vivid and bring the story to life, making it all feel very real!

John and the Bear
There was a clearing in a forest where the echoes of war resonated through the dense surroundings of fog and foliage. John Smith, a man dressed in a tattered brown and blue uniform found himself lost and winded after the lengthily battle of Bull Run. He was a Union soldier, just twenty years old. When he signed up for the army, he was already a year older then when his father signed up.

Bobos Electric Circus
“Step right up, ladies and gentlemen!” The air was filled with the enticing aroma of popcorn and cotton candy as the vibrant, colorful tents of the traveling circus stood tall in yet another small town.

Gothic Queen
There was a small town in California surrounded by mountains called Idyllwild. In this town, there was an even friendlier neighborhood called The Peaksburough residences. It was filled with colorful houses, vibrant and perfectly manicured gardens, and friendly neighbors. The neighbors were so friendly, in fact, people from outside the city would always talk about how creepy it was.

Garbage Dreams. Content Warning.
"I relive every moment I had free. I imagine every walk, swim, lake party, beach visit and picnic I ever had, and remember every psychedelic sunset, and nights sitting outside with a sky that is lit up by stars, it was like a symphony," Lindsey transcribed. It was written down on a letter shared by her husband, George who had read it aloud for the cameras. Lindsey hasn't seen a tree since she was detained, and also wrote that she misses the sun. This was her husbands last visit, and the authoritarian regime only allowed the visit for publicity.

Reflecting on Silver Line of Power
My first and favorite story, Silver Line of Power. Today, I’m writing about a literary journey. These are my thoughts on my first story "Silver Line of Power," which was based on a dream I had when I was nine. I had seen several western and civil war movies, and always thought it would be cool to grow up in the cowboy era. I made a quick note of my dream in my dream journal, but didn’t actually start writing it as a story until I was 14.

Look Me in the Eye
Look Me in the Eye is a book by John Elder Robinson. It’s a biography of his life growing up with Aspergers (now called Autism Spectrum Disorder or ASD for short) back in the old days and his difficulties growing up. His father was abusive and he got picked on in school. He had many odd habits growing up, including an inclination to blurt out non sequiturs, avoid eye contact, dismantle radios, and dig five-foot holes to stick his younger brother, Augusten Burroughs, in them.

Lessons in Chemistry
Lessons in Chemistry is a great book. They should make a movie out of it. It tells a great story about a female chemist in the 1950’s who everyone treats unfairly just because she’s a woman. But really she’s a genius! Extremely well written! I recommend reading it!
