The Slip

 

Oh God, it was happening again. Every damn time she picked up the book.

She
fell to her knees.She clutched her chest. The room disappeared around
her and in it's place was wide open blue skies. Crows by the dozens
flew overhead.Their annoying caw echoed through her bones making her
tremble.

She closed her eyes. She knew what was coming. In just
mere moments her chest would be pierced by their arrows.This time
though was different. This time her skin bore marks of blood as if a
knife had danced across her delicate skin.

She hung her head and
waited. In moments this terrible experience would all be over and
maybe if she was lucky she could forget it. On baited breath she waited
for the room to swallow her up, for her to be back in her home.
Silently she counted to ten, nothing.

The insufferable caws of
crows could still be heard. The shouts of men and rifles sounded. Why
in the hell hated she slipped back to own time? Why was she still here?
How in the hell was she going to explain herself or even begin to try?
More importantly, how was she going to get back home to her own time?
Could she?

She looked up and realized she was doomed to a fate worse then daydreaming.

The Invite

 

I should be dead. Hell, I was dead. And now look at me. I look hotter
than what I did in real life, what the fuck. Not in my wildest dreams
did I ever think the creatures I read about in novels could be real. I
mean after all, how could they be? And yet....I have no words for how
I've came to be such as I am now.

I never got a chance to know if
there was a heaven or a hell. Before I died I had been a believer in
God and the Devil but now, not so much. The one thing I'm certain of
though is the thirst for blood. I have killed without mercy or regret.
Call me evil if you will but it is simple survival. Warm blood is like a
fine red wine, hmm, so delicious. Don't look so horrified.

Oh
I'm sorry have I offended you? Does it offend you that I'm not begging
for forgiveness? Beg who? If there was a God why didn't he prevent me
from becoming this? Hmm...? Oh you have no answer for that one huh?
Exactly.

It seems as if we have gotten off on the wrong foot. What do you say I invite you to dinner?

Living Darkness

 

The dark ground comes to life at her feet.

The tree from which all life flows is built upon the bones of the dead.
In another time they wandered freely through both worlds.

The child had forgotten again.

"Grandmother tell me, how did we die?"

She looked at the undead girl, sighed, and began the story again. 

 

Star Wars Rise Of Skywalker

Movie Trailer

Rating 3***Stars

Hubby and I have watched every Star Wars movie. But we hadn't seen this one until last night. I must say this movie had plenty of action. I got sucked in really quick. I knew a little more to the plot of this one then hubby did but only because I had watched some other you tubers about where things were so far, where they suspected they were going with the characters.

There was a couple of scenes that made me a bit mushy and definitely some surprises along the way. Ren aka Ben, Hans Solo son has not been one of my favorite characters. I have always thought his acting was a bit on the weak side but this movie made me change my mind about him.

I know they say this is the last Star Wars movie but I don't believe them. There is things and parts of the movie that leaves open room to run again with another film or even two depending how the writers would go with things. Only time will tell though.

Night Watch

I love taking pictures of the moon and the sky.

Early Morning Productivity

I have been enjoying the write ins that Courtney has been doing on her You Tube channel. I have managed to get the 2nd draft of a short story finished and am working on yet another short story. Now granted I'm not writing huge number of words but enough to add quite a bit to the story. It's most definitely more than there was before 😁

Lately my creativity has been flowing. I am hoping to get a few short stories done and then publish them in a collection by the end of the year on Amazon. If things keep up the way they are, it's starting to look like a good possibility.
