Two minutes and fourteen seconds later, he’d somehow gotten trapped in a black hole on a site called Tumblr that led to porn of a most enthusiastic variety, if the faces of the six people on the scree...
To be fair to Lady Tina DeSilva, it was not a battle she could have won. Because Ryan Foxheart was the dreamiest dream to have ever been dreamed.
Time is a river, I’ve learned. Always moving forward. But for people like me, people who have loved and lost, the river is something we fight. We swim against the current, trying to get back to the wa...
This is my family, and the noise around me is soothing in a way it hasn't been in quite a long time. That's mostly my doing, I know, given my self-imposed exile in the Land of Sorrow. But hearing the...
Things have changed, oh yes. Make no mistake about that. But that’s the funny thing about grief and anger combined; even while buried in newfound happiness, it claws and it whispers. It begs. It howls...
They must have been listening, Art said, shrugging slightly. The sun is shining, and maybe they just needed some encouragment. The earth is like that, you know. It needs to hear that someone is waitin...
There are moments in your life so profound, so extraordinarily crystal clear that even the remembrance of them is enough to feel like you’re being consumed by fire. Moments that might not mean much to...
That’s not the question you should be asking, though, if this is a dream. The question you should be asking is what you’re going to do now? Because you’re awake?

THAT NIGHT as I lay in bed waiting for sleep, I heard a howl from deep in the woods. It rose like a song until I was sure it was all I could ever want to sing. It went on and on and all I could think...
So I said, Hey, Joe, and hoped it was a start. He was startled. He opened and closed his mouth a few times. He made a growling noise deep in his chest, a low rumble that made my skin itch. It was plea...
Regardless of what your beliefs are, regardless of who you are and are not related to here, Surely you can agree that I am still your King. And as your King, I am ordering you to shut your mouth.That...

Promises were made.Not to me, I remind her.Not out loud, she counters. She moves to stand in front of me. I try to look away, but she doesn’t let me. Not here, she says, touching my lips. But here. Sh...
Otter. Otter. Otter, I mutter. Yes, Bear? he says beautifully. Don’t lead cows to slaughter, I say. He arches an eyebrow. Come again? I take a deep breath. I… love you and I know I should’ve told ya s...
Otter did this! I didn’t do anything wrong. He tricked me! He tricked me and left! Just like I knew he would! I think I hear him call my name, but my ears are pounding too hard to be sure. It sounds l...
Oh, you know…, I start. In my head, I finish: Oh, you know, just the usual. I’ve slept in Otter’s bed two or three times now. Oh, don’t worry! We haven’t really done anything. Except tell stories abou...
Maybe you can bring that up at the next fan club meeting too.Hey! I don’t even know what you’re talking about, okay? I hear things when I’m on my travels. I don’t even care about stuff like that. I ca...
Maybe try the hipster ones.You’re so hot, I better date you before you’re cool! Quincy shouted. My feelings for you are one hundred percent organic and locally sourced! Are you gluten-free tonight, be...
