Unraveling Worlds. Top Story - March 2025. Content Warning.
It's still a struggle for me when I think about how significantly everything changed and the reasons it all happened. For the longest time I spent every day imagining the 'good ol' days' where things were “normal” and life was... “good”. I never realized how conditioned I was, how conditioned everyone was, to the so-called “normal” days of life. When 'The OB's' came, it was a nightmare for the world. The delicate balance of life was shattered and the beliefs of many were completely destroyed. I remember that day like it was yesterday, and for a long time I saw it as the beginning of the end. I now realize it was only the end of what we ‘knew’ and the beginning of truth. The things I remember the most from the 'before' days seem so deprived of reason as I think back on them, but back then, it was what... was.

Vaelin hit the ground hard. His breath punched from his lungs as he tumbled through the darkness, his body rolling across something smooth and cold.

Shadow’s Veil – Part 2
Darkness surged forward like a living thing. Vaelin moved on instinct, twin daggers flashing as he twisted to dodge the creeping tendrils that lashed toward them. His blade cut through nothing but air—no resistance, no flesh, nothing to kill.

Businesswoman Chapter 83
Barrett Ladon looked at his accounts. The sea of red looked like his screen bled. As a senior vice president of Diamante Bank, he had used the company card past the limit. He knew this all fell on his shoulders and if he were to go to a credit card repair company, he’d be flagged before the next billing cycle. Diamante would fire him and he’d be back to moving furniture. Or maybe he could be a crabber again and make almost the same amount of money as he did in a suit and tie.

An Ocean of Bright Stars: Part 2
Donal broke away from Maeve’s hand and took off down the ship’s deck. “Donal!” Maeve shouted, hurrying after him as he darted between women covered in long fur coats and men dressed in suits. She was sure they were in the wrong section of the ship.
