Bitten

The birds had stopped coming, which led to an uncomfortable silence. Too much so for my liking. Our home overlooked the sea to the east, and the orchard to the south. And though the sea had offered our town a turbulent summer with gales and thunder, it had become softer, quieter, as if the tantrum child had finally passed on. Elaine, my wife,...

Careful: for those that read this, it is fairly sexually charged, so read with discretion.

CASE 173:

Subject Age: 26

They made it very clear. I was to make the decision.

Let me revise: I made the decision.

Before the pill had made its way to the base of my stomach, I felt the warmth on my skin. It was like sitting in...

Well, I guess it’s time for me to write something of substance. Here’s to hoping I don’t waste your time. I had my evening grad course last night. We talked a lot about psychological measurement of intelligence, and what that word really means.

What does intelligence mean? Is it something that can be measured to give a global picture of your ability to do...

Do you remember the days when I used to write long entries that seemed as if they were about nothing, yet pretentiously had a theme I was trying to explore? Remember those 6,000 word posts that were lyrical quagmires? What happened to those days, when I used to take something (anything, really) and try to understand it. I guess, at that time, I felt like I...

Well guys, if you're interested and tolerant, feel free to read what I've done below. I've worked over the past few weeks to perfect what I'm doing here. I'm still not sure I love the idea yet, but at the very least, I can say with personal pride that I reached my goal, and wrote more than 1000 words.

Why not:

It’s been some time since I’ve just gone ahead and written a post of substance. It seems that I try to update as to my progress on creative projects I may or may not be working on. But really, what does that offer for anyone that reads?

Yesterday, I took some time to just sit in my room and listen to some music I hadn’t listened to in a while. It...

Progress?

I’ve been thinking about this idea I’ve had for a while now: the whole Reinrosa book I’m trying to write. Per usual, I rushed to get something out and tried to get feedback as fast as I could to see if it was a good idea. For some reason, I find it necessary to test the waters before I try to do something like this.

Checkpoint 89

For 87 years, a constant mist had fallen from the sky. Today had been no different.

The steel of the single rail checkpoint of Track9 hissed and moaned under the weight of the stationary train overhead. It was the DMT3 (Delta Mass Transit), scheduled to arrive at Port Rivenne at 1:10PM.

It was cold out, as it usually was.

The single rail checkpoint of Track9 hissed and moaned under the weight of the stationary train overhead. It was the DMB:3 scheduled to arrive at Port Rivenne at 1:10PM.

A mist, which fell constantly from the sky, caused the green indicator lights on the rail below to glow in small spheres. These lights were...
