Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Nobody can see a dream in the absence of grace, that’s why we pray.

Love is only a feeling
I was a bit nervous, at first, not knowing where I would be placed until they selected me to work for The Therapeutic Legislation of Psychologists. I am so glad to be part of the select few. I’d be working closely with those who made us who we are - a better society - by genetically removing certain harmful feelings. Back in the learning center, I was top of my class, always in control, so I’m not that surprised I got this position. I head home, after the last day of Learning, and immediately see the letter waiting for me in my mailbox.

An Aquarius, she is.
She doesn’t follow the crowd. She goes left if everyone is going right. She is an unsolved mystery. She wears her scars as her best attire.

Apollo's Creed
Hello out there. It’s me again. I have been thinking about our last conversation, where you said nothing. Sometimes it feels like I am communicating through a Bliss Board, one of those devices with limited choices of images, when there is so much to talk about, so many questions I have to ask.

Dragon Tales (#2)
She ran through the forest, their words replaying in her head. “Strike it down” They had said. “We want it dead!” The lying 'hero's' had hummed their agreements as they were fed.

Surprising Science Fiction Stories from the Ancient World
Some think of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein as the beginning of science fiction. Others would say that it didn’t really begin until H.G. Wells began writing down his marvelous, speculative stories in which he imagined terrible - and wonderful - possibilities for the futures. While these might be the beginnings of science fiction or speculative fiction as we define it today, there are many stories from the ancient world and early cultures all over the planet that contained elements of science and speculation similar to the ones we love today.Whether they’re early tales from Japan or surprising elements of the Bible, these stories will inspire you to take a closer look at what you consider the origins of your favorite genre.

Heart-Rending Poems for Sci-Fi Fanatics
Distant relatives to the familiar "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," these sci fi poems are raw, real, and sometimes almost too close for comfort. They blur the line between speculation and reality in their carefully composed stanzas and bring us to mini existential crises - not earth-shattering ones. Each is just the right size to bring along to a good evening of poetry for the starry-eyed dreamer. (And if no one you know is cool enough to host one, you'd better send out invitations to your own. I suggest hot beverages, an antipasto platter, and no, I'm not doing anything, of course I would be delighted to come, thank you for asking!)
