To The Moon.
She hauled her made-from-recyclable-materials tote back up onto her coffee table and collapsed on her pre-loved couch she’d never quite been able get that smell out of. Some like to eat their feelings, but Connie spent hers instead. After That-Bitch Jeff wrote her up arriving to the office only five minutes late a post-work splurge at the bookstore was warranted. Fortunately, or unfortunately, Con could never tell which, she was broke so the splurges were limited to the secondhand industry. She liked her books to appear worn anyway, it gives the illusion of being read.

Payday
She skittered her digits across the lid of the coffin, wondering what it was made of. From a distance it looked like wood but was cold to the touch so she guessed it was copper. A huge, hideous wreath lay on top and the arrangement appeared to have been made by someone who strongly enjoyed carnations.

Is the Fault in YOUR Stars?. Top Story - February 2021.
It’s easy to make fun of astrology enthusiasts, but when it comes right down to it, a lot of the population readily engages with the predictions and descriptions they entail. Admit it, even if you are someone who preaches about how dumb zodiac signs are every day, you secretly know what yours is and have looked into your readings at least once in your life.

To Order comrade Generals!” Silence descended immediately upon the room at the command of Chairman General Hu Janito as he announced his entry. The Paramount leader of the People’s Republic of China, the People’s Liberation Army and the Central Military Commission, the true seat of China’s power. The eight members and three vice chairmen of the commission had been awaiting Janito’s arrival, discussing how influences had been successful in the American sub prime mortgage market, and how the “silly Yankees” had been so besotted with money, they could not see the danger they were in. It was just a matter of time now.
