  • On the Run

    Photo by Ivana Cajina on Unsplash  I knew the day was full of possibilities as soon as I woke up. The hazy mountains held so many secrets and I wanted to find out every single one. I looked over my shoulder at the tents closest to mine and decided I would be better off without…

  • Captain Dreadful

    My brother wanted to be a pirate ever since he could talk. Jess was a pirate every year for Halloween and most of his clothes had pirates, patches or sometimes bells to make sure everyone knew what he was really going for. Every single birthday party was pirate themed and he often got upset if…

  • Backup Plan

    “You have a backup plan, right?  Like where are we going next?  What’s the next step?”  Adam sat down on my front step and looked at me expectantly.   “Hey you two!  Here’s lunch!”  I was saved from answering by George coming up behind me carrying the pizza I had promised the two of them.  I…

  • The Bridge

    As soon as I saw the man on the bridge, I knew I wasn’t dreaming.  He was dripping wet, yet his hair was standing on end.  I wasn’t sure how he had gotten to where he was without leaving behind any footprints, but I blinked a few times to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating.  I…

    PHOTO PROMPT © Roger Bultot  It was the last bench I ever sat on and it was the place I remembered wanting you. I knew I would never sit on another one, especially after you spray painted the heart on the bench as we walked away. I didn’t know it would be the last time to…

  • The Window

    PHOTO PROMPT © Alicia Jamtaas  I knew when I saw him, I wanted to know him. But I knew he couldn’t come up to my apartment. It was too small and I had too much furniture. And I hadn’t done my laundry. It was too hot. The fan in the window was the only way…

  • The Library Book

    At first, I thought the catalog must be wrong.  Hadn’t I diligently checked and rechecked every single entry?  I knew the library was used all day every day and I had spent months, years even to make sure all the books, audiobooks, DVDs, that everything was entered correctly.  But now, there was an unexplained addition…

  • The Olympics

    When the gunshots started, I thought it was all part of the show. The after effects of the fireworks. But when I saw Jeremiah fall, I knew there was something more to what was going on. Jeremiah was supposed to win a medal. He was going to be famous. He was the only one I…
