Tales of Ardia: A Whisper of Waking
A pair of chattering squirrels wound themselves up, down, and around the trunks of two enormous trees. The noisy critters were completely oblivious to the green eyes surrounded by freckled brown skin that watched their every movement.

Adrift. Top Story - March 2024.
It was day nine, by Marcus’s count. He and Terrance had already spent eight days on the yellow life raft afloat in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. There had only been six survivors that surfaced after their plane crash-landed in the water. Together, they had secured three of the life rafts that had been aboard the aircraft and had divided themselves up - two per raft. They had tied the buoyant vessels together, but in the storm, on day four, the rope connecting Marcus and Terrance’s raft to the others came loose. Now, they were separated from the rest of the group with no way to signal for help since the flare gun was in one of the other rafts.
