Bio
I love writing articles & fictional stories. They give me scope to express myself and free my mind. After working as a mental health nurse for 30 years, writing allows an effective emotional release, one which I hope you will join me on.

Spreading Joy To Others
Take a look at the picture and what do you see? Children sat together, sharing... It is the innocence of childhood that we all sadly lose touch with as we all develop and grow. Of course, we all know why this inevitably occurs, don't we? Several reasons come to mind straight away.

Epitome Of The Algorithm

Train Ride To Oblivion.
March 2156, final testing date fast approaching. The test dummy, the mannequin, call it what you will, had been positioned, slumped upright, restricted into the one sole and lonely seat in the entirety of one carriage, by a standard five-point safety harness, emblazoned with the typical yellow & black zigzag markings all over it. The mannequin was a typically adorned, in an all-in-one cream-colored jumpsuit, it's size around that of an ordinary 5' 6" human, which had been in use as the industry standard 'crash test' tool for the past few centuries. Typically functional and inanimate with no humanistic features whatsoever - its face, simply a yellow-red-black colored diamond symbol.

The Air Bubble - Part I of II.
Silently in a moment of brief solitude with her bedroom light turned off, her bedroom door recently slammed shut, the teen was slumped across the large bay window, knees held tightly together up against her face, with both her thin, pasty-colored arms tightly wrapped around her legs, her hands interwoven so tightly that they were even whiter than her skin showed usually.

Myth, Reality, Or Simply A Bad Nightmare?
There weren't always dragons in the Valley. Time had governed that history should have stayed where it had been. Forever to reside within the minds of historians, only to be given the breath of new life through the fresh, youthful, innocent minds of school kids, eager to learn about their ancestors' lives. The same kids that had never before been faced with those same fears & misfortunes that had long ago befallen those primitive humans of a tragic existence ravaged, and long forgotten by time itself.
