"Shadows of Brilliance: A Boy's Journey through Family"
Chapter 1: A Shattered Beginning In the quiet, picturesque town of Willowbrook, nestled among rolling hills and blooming meadows, a young boy's life unfolded in a manner both enchanting and tumultuous. This was the town where Liam came to know the world, where he took his first steps, where he laughed, cried, and discovered the intricacies of life. It was a town like many others, yet unique in its own way, where secrets were whispered through the rustling leaves of ancient oak trees, and where everyone seemed to know everyone else's business.

What If Everything We Knew About Black Holes Was Wrong?
Once upon a time, in a galaxy not so far away, there were mysterious celestial objects known as black holes. These cosmic enigmas had earned a reputation for being dense and terrifying, often depicted as voracious vacuum cleaners of the universe. They were believed to suck up everything in their path, bending light and warping time itself. But what if, just what if, our understanding of these cosmic monsters was not entirely accurate?

The Brass Society
Preface The badge was new as the young pilot removed it from the collar of his chestnut leather bomber jacket. Slightly warm, too, the heat of the engravings still glowing from under his touch. A smirk pulled at his lips as he set it aside on the console of his airship.

The Echoes of Fate
The night was dark and stormy, the kind of evening that sent shivers down your spine. Thunder rumbled like an angry giant in the distance, and lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the small town of Willowbrook. In the heart of this sleepy town stood an old, ivy-covered bookstore known as "Whispering Pages."

Fool's Errand - The King is Dead. Content Warning.
You can read the first part of this via the link below: Matthew Fromm set a High Fantasy challenge, the details of which are at the end and I entered it with Fool's Errand. My offering was a 500 word excerpt and introduced us to a fool, a jester. Such was the response from my supporters on Vocal, that I decided to write the next part and see where that took me. It may be the path to ignominy but unless that path is taken, I'll never know.
